French trench clearers in the Battle of Verdun. French Corporal Louis Barthas recorded a commander's expectations of his men before a May 18, 1916 attack to take no prisoners, neither captured nor wounded, an order 'unworthy of a Frenchman.' The soldier kneeling on the left has likely just killed the German soldier on the ground, either combat or murder. Illustration by Léon Taa. . . ., 1916 |
