Beautiful War Photos

I went through the first three segments yesterday, really enjoyed them and loved looking at pictures that aren't really famous.

I'm amazed that more of a fuss isn't made over what the Japanese did during this and the earlier wars with China they were engaged in, as well as other asian nations... something along the lines of 30 million died at their hands, a lot of those deaths were unneccesary and considered war crimes.

I'm sure the Chinese haven't forgotten.

Thank you for those photos
 

 
The building in the background is not anymore there, but I believe that the building on the right is. Ordynacka street looks very different now :)

OK subscribed. I love history specifically WW2 so this is right up my ally.

Them American photo's in color are stunning
 



They are pretty amazing but I was looking through the Battle of Britain pictures and those are stunning even for black and white.

I've been looking at them for a while, but I'll post a reply to get some more life into the thread. They really are fascinating, and I haven't seen most of them before.
