Fovant Badges | World War 1 Location Visit | The Bored Veteran
The Fovant Badges are a set of regimental badges cut into a chalk hill, Fovant Down, near Fovant, in south-west Wiltshire, England. They are between Salisbury and Shaftesbury on the A30 road in the Nadder valley, and are approximately 1⁄2 mile (800 m) south-east of Fovant village. They were created by soldiers garrisoned nearby, and waiting to go to France, during the First World War; the first in 1916.[1] They are clearly visible from the A30 which runs through the village. Nine of the original twenty remain, and are scheduled ancient monuments and recognised by the Imperial War Museum as war memorials.

    Hitler decía : " no importa que mueran miles y miles de jóvenes alemanes en la guerra, al fin y al cabo tienen que morir igualmente como todos, deben morir por la patria, es el mayor honor". Y así murieron 5 millones de jóvenes militares alemanes, sencillamente espeluznante.

    Sometimes when its not friendly between countries they make gay porn of thier children like wot britain does to germany now they never really find out cuz its verboten n no one seen it. Its gods own country see have you seen that film if yer german you should watch it n it isnt about hitler who was only mildly gay n tried hard to save the better looking germans from the evil tuetons who started the war really . But they always said (in secret) they did that to kill the captured german children undergoing horrific surgury experiments to understand more about wether or not it was possible to perform a sex change operation on a person these children were chosen because it was more likely thrd live through it the experiment ranged from prolonging the surgery to check for consciousness pain threshold n more importantly the psychology of going through such a procedure. in modern times that Ukrainian girl went to scotland presumably for this reason as they had recently adjusted thier law there for that reason did anyone ever see her again nope well do you deny the first official operation was done on a british test pilot or do you not ?

The one thing it looks like they removed from the time I was there was on each side of the main building, after the war they had the insignia of the American 3rd Army painted on those walls.
