There are far, far too few tales told about World War I, and far too many tales of great and terrible acts that should not be forgotten. I hope some day to see a "Battle of Jutland" movie that does some justice to the event.
RE the, "losing 1600 men in a massacre", ..... My son (23, USAF veteran) and I were awaiting the beginning of "Midway" last week and the video preview for this "1917". When that phrase was said, my son noted, "... as if British generals would have cared about that, then...". Very true. Still, I hope for a good movie.
