A poignant reminder of the true face of war - a great collection of rarely seen pins from the "home front". Thanks for sharing, Ron!

Nice pins that really sum up the reality of the event we know as WW1.

Many thanks, these are a excellent reminder of the human costs of war - all too often remember through statistics and numbers. Esp. the wounded soldiers...
