Welcome
The Western Front. World War I.
Where to start remembering?[1] One could go back at least to ancient Babylonia, and further back to the earliest agrarian community where there was class societal splitting, some working for [the sake of] others, and grain surpluses being stored up and records kept of this. Even back before that, there were probably bards remembering. I choose to start most of the time with World War I; before the start of The Great War seems too distant for me, and, after The Great War's start, all too close at hand.
