Inside the eyes of the boys of '99 sent on November 10, 2020 (12:42) by Lorisb. 88 comments, 2126 views. [retina]

at 70mm, 1/1000 f/8.0, ISO 100, hand held. Tre Cime di Lavaredo, Italy.

Mi sono fatto spesso una domanda e non so se è anche la vostra: come vedevano i " ragazzi del '98 e '99 " (1898-99) queste montagne? Certo non come la mia fotografia. Classi di età anagrafica arruolati e mandati al massacro in queste montagne ed altri luoghi di conflitti nella Prima Guerra Mondiale. Io ho ammirato queste cime in tempo di pace in tutto il loro splendore, loro fuono portati fin lì per combattere il nemico che non conoscevano, loro non capivano perché erano stati arruolati, dalle isole, dal sud, dal centro e nord Italia, venivano arruolati in quelle montagne a combattere una guerra di trincea a pochi metri dal nemico, assalti continui di giorno e di notte con le zone di guerra illuminate dai lanci di bengala, in un inferno di fuoco d'artiglieria, mitragliatrici e assalti all'arma bianca. Qui di seguito vi propongo la decorazione della medaglia d'argento al valor militare dello zio di mia moglie, deceduto negli scontri sul Monte Grappa, per il centenario siamo andati a trovare il suo luogo di sepoltura, all'interno del Sacrario di Bassano del Grappa assieme a migliaia di altri giovani. PETTI SERRANO di Sante (DECORATO DI MEDAGLIA D'ARGENTO AL V. M.) Soldato 57° reggimento artiglieria da campagna nato il 16 settembre 1898 a Foiano della Chiana distretto militare di Arezzo morto il 24 ottobre 1918 sul monte Grappa per ferite riportate in combattimento. “Facente parte di una pattuglia di trincea presso un battaglione, tra l'infuriare del combattimento e sotto il violento bombardamento nemico si offriva volontariamente all'arduo ed eccezionalmente pericoloso compito di portare ordini a nuclei avanzati, dimostrando mirabile coraggio. Mortalmente ferito da una palletta di shrapnel avversaria alla testa, nel soccombere, ebbe ancora la forza d'animo di pronunziare nobili parole. – Col del Cue (Grappa), 24 ottobre 1918”

So much has already been said...
The title is strong, right, it sums it all up on its own if we put a minimum of sensitivity of mind into it.
I have a son their age, I get goose skin.... I dare not think and make comparisons....
The picture? Beautiful!

Too many boys fought this pointless war, often sacrificing their young lives. It's a credit to you to have remembered them. Bravo Loris!

Compliments, a wonderful job :-)

Hi Loris.
Yyy your picture of these places is gorgeous. Your story, read with pleasure, reminds us of heroic deeds but also of many lost lives, tributes that many families have paid to the madness of war. Some received value awards, others simply did not return, dispersed. For some there is only one cross with 'unknown'.
a dear greeting, always good

History will never fail in its task of bringing back the events that have happened, even if they will be further and further away and diluted over time.
T give us the thought of what happened, the pain and the mistakes, the many lives extinguished, the innocent victims for such ferocious madness.

A cordial greeting

Beautiful image and beautiful colors; hard to believe that such beautiful places, a true lyno to the grandeur of nature, were the scene of death. Nice proposal, Loris, beautiful photo, gorgeous caption. Congratulations.
Eao,
Jo.

Those of our generation who have not or have not had a grandfather who has not had this sad experience. I remember mine, (Sicilian) and his stories, proud to be knight Vittorio Veneto.
I'm very dear, good Sunday :-)

Jo :-P

I am happy to read your beautiful words that speak both of the beauty of the places and of the theme of that tragic war, they who are no longer there but the memories of their exploits still echo in Italian families.
A very dear greeting to both of us, happy Sunday :-)

Fantastic Loris!!! Great shot and research, I really like the story, and I am fascinated to think about the characters and battles that these lands experienced. Then there is a lot of information passed down on the First and Second World Wars. Happy Sunday.

Beautiful photo Loris with attached caption that makes us relive even from distant viewers dated in time a present that must always make us reflect. "Yes
, 'n' how many years can a mountain exist Before it is washed to the sea?"
