A short while ago I saw the German picture "Sarajevo" that gives an interesting take on events, according to which the Germans and Austrians were the masterminds behind the assassination of Franz Ferdinand. Their motive was to get Serbia out of the way of their grand designs for the Berlin Baghdad railway.

new on youtube the original 1919 silent movie The Lost Battalion. The 2001 one is also on youtube There is a rather good presentation in the National WW I Museum and Memorial "hell's Half Acre The True story of the Lost Battalion"

I also found on youtube a newly posted video that is one of the funniest I have ever watched "The Russian 2nd pacific Squadron- Voyage of the Damned"

new on YouTube the original 1919 silent movie The Lost Battalion.

And this movie is now 100 years old.   Safe to assume that the cast are all dead.

Some of the men you see in the 1919 movie the Lost battalion were actual members of this unit. Some of the film clips are of their unit the 77th Infantry Division.


also on youtube I found
"Official Entrances of Nicholas II and Family"

Makes sense.  Those men would have been still alive then.
