In 1995, I started collecting these mostly German WW1 photos, others
of mine and some on/off the internet. So to share them and for educational
purposes I made these 3 slide shows of these rare photos; AT EACH END OF THE
RIFLE, WE'RE THE SAME #1 #2 #3. To show
that we are all, really part of the “Same Human Race” at the any end, of any
rifle.
I hope that you find these interesting:
AT EACH
END OF THE RIFLE, WE'RE THE SAME #1
AT EACH END OF THE RIFLE, WE'RE THE SAME #2
AT EACH END OF THE RIFLE, WE'RE THE SAME #3
“Oh my name is Francis Tolliver, from
Liverpool I dwell
Each Christmas comes since World War I have learned its lesson well.
For the one who calls the shots won't be among the dead and lame.
And on each end of the rifle we're the same”

Sainsbury's OFFICIAL Christmas 2014:
Oh what a lovely war! Christmas Truce:
War really is a vast open air factory where the hours are
long, unions are not permitted, safety conditions that are routinely flouted and
people’s lives wasted for at times neither Good or Bad! No more people have died
on this planet then they would have died, if they were not killed in a War. Only
future potential of all these individuals were
lost!
World War One in my opinion started in 1914 but with brief pauses here and there, The European War ended after the fall of the Berlin Wall 1989. Then in 1990 – 1991 we started our Middle Eastern Wars proper, for after all the Middle East problem started at the end of the Ottoman Empire on the 1st November 1922.
Both Military and Civilian Casualties:

Both Military and Civilian Casualties:
WWI total
casualty count = 8,528,000 (8.528 million) Approximate
WWII total casualty count = 18,265,000 (18.265 million) Approximate
WWII total casualty count = 18,265,000 (18.265 million) Approximate
Of course this does not add into
account the casualties from wars listed below that again started in 1914 –
1989.

2. 44,927 died and 43,145 were wounded.
3. 8,271 were taken prisoner of war.
4. 1,146 merchant seamen died by enemy action.
For Canada Korean War:
1. 26,791 Canadians served.
