Trench warfare 1916
An image that perfectly depicts trench warfare from 1916. There are some quality issues (scanning artifacts?), but I think the historical value outweighs the technical deficiencies.

 * Support Dang, I almost nominated this one myself. Snooze=lose.  I like the various positions of the men in the trench.  It illustrates the combination of tedium, exhaustion, and fear of trench warfare. --Bridgecross 14:02, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
