Also, look at the hole she clawed out in the dirt next to her tomb box..sickening.

I've been on a WW2 binge lately. I'm just now realizing how that war is maybe the most significant event in human history. I can't think of another that changed the world as much as it did.
Eta: maybe more of an "impact" than "change" but probably both.
Go study WWI, it transformed the world more than any event since the discovery of the New World. Keep in mind that WWII was only possible as a result of WWI. As for transforming the world, WWI had the following effects, just to name a few.
1. Collapse of the manor Empires of Europe, namely Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Russia.
2. Decline of Great Britian as the most powerful and most wealthy nation on earth.
3. Rise of the United States as the new most powerful and wealthiest country on earth.
4. Fall of Ottoman Empire and the rise of Pan-Arab nationalism. In other words, all the troubles we have today in the Middle East.
5. Rise of Comminism as a major world force
6. Rise of Japan as a major world economic and military world power.
7. Literally the invention of modern combined arms warfare where tanks, infantry, and artillery work together.
8. Mass migration of women from the home to the workplace. This pitched feminist movements decades ahead of where it was before the war.
9. Invention of the air war. Before WWI, airplanes were slow, unarmed, fragile wooden things that could only fly short distances and low altitudes. Only four years later they were well armed, all metal, high altitude instruments of war, some being capable of delivering massive bomb loads on distant targets.
10. The beginning of the end of European colonialism and the birth of the first truly international organization, The League of Nations.

President John F. Kennedy (1961-1963) meeting former President Herbet Hoover (1929-1933)
Mugshot of Lee Harvey Oswald, August 1963
I've read that Adolf Hitler hated this photograph and did not allow it to be published. I wonder why?

So we've all at some point tried to imagine the absolute horror and terror of being a Jew in a concentration camp. Can you imagine what that must have felt like being liberated from a place like that?
Makes me think of that camp that was liberated in Band of Brothers. The scenes of that episode have always stuck with me.

Why is Andy Garcia hanging out with Capone in the 30's?

I went to the Holocaust Museum a few weeks ago. That place is bone chilling. The Germans were some sick, twisted people. Anyone who has ever made the Trump/Hitler comparison is a goddamn moron and needs to spend a day in that place before they toss that comparison around so loosely.

Here’s what the crowd looked like at Lincoln’s 1861 inauguration. The Capitol Building’s dome was still incomplete.
Lincoln with Gen. George McClellan after Antietam. Antietam was the first major Civil War battle to happen on Union soil.
