[00:00:00]A thousand men died every day for 10 months in a space no larger than a park.

[00:00:06]When I went through old records, the goal wasn't victory. It was to bleed a nation white. The plan was cold and industrial. 1,000 guns fired at once. A yellow line of fire turning Earth into a meat grinder. Europe's strongest fort was captured by a few men because it was left nearly empty. Defenders turned a dirt road into an umbilical cord, moving 6,000 trucks a day under fire. Men drowned in craters of mud and blood, fighting by routine until they became machines. One ton of explosives fell on every square yard of soil. This was the battle of Verdun. Please like and subscribe.
