The Battle of Vimy Ridge, the Battle of the Somme, and the Battle of Passchendaele, among other contributions in WWI. Also in WWII, D-Day. But that stuff bores you, right?

Vaguely remember half of those events, but in 9th grade what I really wanted was an Inglourious Basterds take on history, and when I didn't get it I tuned out.
I did write a poem about trench foot though. Lost that somewhere. It was gold.
