Suddenly realizing that the ability of the #rich and powerful, who make decisions, and their #civilian supporters, to hide from the actual fighting may have been why #WWI wasn't "The #war to end all #wars", but #WWII, where no one could hide, killed the appetite.

I'd be very interested in any feedback that the #genealogy or #history community has.
Thanks in advance.

12 followers · 40 posts · Server historians.social@wigglytuffitout @sarae I frequently deal with these #Russian cursive issues in translating #Polish #genealogical records from the 1870s through the end of #worldwari. The lines occasionally placed over and under the #cursive Ρ and Ρ respectively help, but are not used consistently, even in the same document. The one that always throws me, though, is the ΠΆ. I have gotten used to seeing the yat since it only shows up in a few words and Iβve learned to look for it.

Also in 1916, residents of Berlin, Ontario held a referendum to change the name of their home city to Kitchener.
I wonder what residents of Moscow, Idaho are thinking these days? π€

Anzac Day is a national event in Australia.
Commemorates a messy invasion of a remote Turkish coast in 1915.
Why it has become so big in Australia is something I can't begin to explain. But this essay on Medium tells why it has haunted me since my first visit 40 years ago.
