And it dawned on me.. July 28th this year marks the 100yr anniversary of the start. I would expect to see tons of documentaries this year. Though I really haven't seen anything about it.
Also, found this video on youtube. Apparently someone restored this film footage. Pretty cool to see if you ask me..

Interesting. I'd like to find out more about this footage. I've heard that very little real combat footage exists. Most were re-enacted after the fact when they had time to move cameras into position, and toward the end of the war when cameras had got a bit better.
