"The Abyss" DIETER HESS (Front Lines/France circa 1915)

"The Abyss" Into the abyss all German youth, drain your blood for the fatherland, give even the last drops... Your life will be made short, your body food for worms, fertilizer on foreign soil. Yet back home, our people starve to feed our military machine, powered by narrow minded war lords. I dare ask one question, nay one word, why ?...
