Faces of the First World War

[Sandra Parker]

If you have an association with WW1, this is of interest.

On Armistice Day 11.11.11, IWM made 100 previously unseen portraits of those who served in the First World War publically available for the first time on Flickr Commons.
IWM will continue to upload photographs to Flickr Commons every weekday until August 2014, the 100th anniversary of the outbreak of the First World War.
The Bond of Sacrifice is an archive of photographs collected by the IWM between 1917 and 1920. All of the photos tell a story. The men shown in them fought – and often died – for Britain and the Commonwealth during the First World War.

oooh my grandfather was in the navy. My Grandmother worked in Munitions, her brother was killed in 1914 and her other brother was a prisoner of war - oh and a cousin of hers was in the navy too. I have pictures of all of them. I should share with the IWM shouldn't I...
