"Woordfront" recalls the emotions of 1915

18/04/15 - The West-Flemish city of Tielt is staging a major event to mark the first gas attacks in the First World War: Woordfront (Frontline of words) will see four groups of people march to the central market square. Poems and texts will recall the emotions of that time, April 1915. At least 1,150 people died as a direct result of the poison gas attacks, which is why Woordfront wanted to see at least the same number of volunteers participate, but this was no problem.

It is altogether fitting that we who have sailed the deeps of space now return again to the sea. This is in many ways a water planet, and it can be ruled from the waves. With sea power, rugged terrain can be bypassed and enemy strongholds isolated. Once naval superiority is achieved, Planet is ours for the taking.
~Col. Corazon Santiago 'Planet: A Survivalist's Guide'
