“1916 • World War I”Ajouté :
Every shell you see here was fired in just one day during World War I.
This photo shows thousands of empty 105 mm artillery shells after an Allied bombardment on German lines in 1916.
During battles like the Battle of the Somme, artillery became the deadliest weapon of the war. Entire landscapes were erased, trenches collapsed, forests disappeared. Some bombardments lasted for days without stopping. World War I wasn't just fought by soldiers. It was fought by machines, industry, and endless artillery fire.
History feels different when you realize this happened in a single day.
