Title: Remember them
Post by: FelixSteiner on December 04, 2010, 12:46:07 PM
I do not know where this is appropriate, but I'd like to take the time to give a big <S> and moment of silence, for all Central Powers and Entente soldiers who ever fought and died in the Battle of Gallipoli and even throughout the war. I am very entangled to this event because my great great grandfather died here. He was Central Powers Ottoman Infantry Private, Saul Nasi (Yes I know Pronounced Nazi though he was Jewish). He died of dysentery.

Lets honor all those who died...

SAUL NASI 1890?-1916.

A member of the Nazi party in WW1? In Turkey? Facts seem a bit off, but  :salute

Be prepared.. there are some disturbing messages and portrayals that rivals some of the best in Saving Private Ryan.

Took me a while to get over it.

Definately worth a look, I saw this years ago when it came out, I may have to revisit it.
