Uncle Wally’s service had been family lore. And the monument—erected somewhere in a small town in France—loomed large in my imagination. My dad didn’t know the name of the town. Perhaps Uncle Wally didn’t, either.

"We are all a part of everything that's happening, all at the mercy of history and where it picks us up in its currents."

Boot-shaming is a time-honored U.S. military tradition that goes back to at least World War I. It's also, apparently, the original source of some of a well-worn piece of digital slang

Someone painstakingly cut scenes from SpongeBob SquarePants ​and set it to Sam Mendes' World War I drama '​1917'

The sinking was the single largest loss of life for the Coast Guard during WWI.

Movies so real you'll worry about trench foot

Presenting his World War One battlefield movie "1917" as a single shot had pros and cons for Oscar winning director Sam Mendes. Mistakes meant lengthy retakes but "accidents" also gave an authenticity of life in the trenches.

I didn't think a movie about World War I would, or even could, remind me of Afghanistan. Somehow, "1917" did, and that's probably the highest praise I can give it.

I'll be honest, I've been wanting a World War I movie that told the story of black soldiers on the Western Front for so fucking long that when I watched the trailer for ​The Great War​ I was almost able to overlook its campyness and over the top 'rah 'rah 'Merica vibes. Almost.

"We just can't let his memory be forgotten."

A new limited run of vintage Colt Model 1911 'Black Army' pistols were designed to invoke the World War I heritage of the M1911's original blackened finish that Colt used in lieu of the standard Carbonia Blue finish to boost wartime production

The upcoming drama intends to drop viewers right directly the trenches of World War I

Shortly after World War I, Ernest Hemingway tore into stolen valor as only Ernest Hemingway could.

It looks like World War I is finally getting the major motion picture treatment it deserves, and it's about time.
