Hi chris. Its in the middle of a forest. Think i found it when i visited douaumont fort. I would love to see this at night. Its got a red and light that comes out of the top of the tower. Called 'lantern of the dead.' Thanks for watching and commenting 😊
Hi steve. Its more poignant when you see those soldiers bones though those windows. 😓. Everything becomes more real.. ❤ Thanks for watching and commentating
Thank you for this video, I think everyone should see it. Especially the people that send our young people off to die for their insolent reasons for war.
Another amazing place. We should see those bones if we want to they are all part of the whole history X Well worth climbing to the top however long it takes us to get up there to show some respect, they did a lot more for us all than that X Thank you for sharing X
Hi jennifer. Yes i agree with viewing those poor soldiers, but i didn't want to suddenly startle viewers, just in case. The french have deliberately put those windows in this stunning building, as a reminder of what once were enemies, but now as comrades. ❤. Thanks for watching and commenting
Good morning. Your very welcome. The Sikh religion is always overlooked as well. They all fought and died together.❤ Thank you for watching and commenting.
@@bunkersfortificationsandme7688 no no one gets it. The war I fought in was bad enough especially morally but like these boys I just wanted to live one more hour one more day
The Ossuary was / is built over the remains? I thought it was a large building built on clean - no remains, no UXOs or live but buried ammo - site. And when remains were and are found they are brought to the Ossuary. Thank you for the tour. Wasn't too informed about the Muslims being involved there too.
Hi J. Lietka. The ossuary was build and then the remains would have been placed beneath the building afterwards. If you get the chance to visit the building then it is more stunning than the video really shows. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Morning Daniel. Its hard enough for us to imagine what these soldiers went through. 😓. I couldn't imagine what those soldiers would be thinking. ❤. Thanks for watching and commenting .
Not only Moroccan tirailleurs and Algerian tirailleurs From the African army (North Africa) Senegalan tirailleurs (Senegal) And tirailleurs indochinois (actual Vietnam and neighboring country) From Coloniale Army (other colonies)
I'm a US Army Veteran, and thank you for making this video. No matter what country, a fallen brother is my brother.
Morning William. Yes I agree. That make it more poignant especially that it's remembrance weekend. ❤️. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thank you for this video, my French Grandfather fought in this battle and was injured in a gas attack.

Weird, I've been to Verdun and missed that. Great video 🍺🍷👍

Morning Jeff. Exactly my sentiments as well. Thanks for watching and commenting 😊
thank you for including the Muslim participation. I've never really heard much about their efforts.

It makes the single greatest anti war statement in the world all those bones mixed together both French and German. It stunned me in my tracks!
Hi Larry. I agree, but does anyone listen 😪. Thanks for watching and commenting
