The Battlefields Of Verdun

VERDUN, FRANCE - AUGUST 27: Crosses stand at the cemetery where French soldiers killed in the World War I Battle of Verdun are buried on August 27, 2014 near Verdun, France. The cemetery contains the bodies of 16,000 soldiers and the nearby Douamont Ossuary contains the remains of another 130,000 French and German World War I soldiers. The 10-month Battle of Verdun in 1916, among the most horrific on the entire Western Front, resulted in a combined casualty count of between 714,231 and 976,000 for both sides. The two armies fired an estimated 65 million artillery shells at one another, of which millions never exploded and are still strewn througout the region. France will commemorate the centenary of the battle in 2016 with events including the inauguration of a redesigned national memorial. (Photo by Sean Gallup/Getty Images)
