History Channel Turning points in history Newfoundland at the So

This is a history channel program called turning points in history, this one talks about Newfoundlands sacrifice in WWI mainly at the battle of the Somme in France. I find it disgraceful that these generals that made these attack plans were even allowed to command armies, they were obviously quite incompetent when it came to battle tactics and they continued to use the charge mentality of the 19th century. Perhaps my opinion is based on the fact i am an armchair quarterback and i may have made the same decisions they made at that place and time.

As a proud Newfoundland I fully agree with you. Who misinterprets flares in such a time that it could (and did) cost hundreds of lives.
500 Newfoundlanders died that day. Among them my Great Uncle. Luckily my Grandfather was too young to have joined.. There's avery good chance he could have been in those number otherwise if he had of been just a cpl of years older and I never would have been born
