Mystery- The Haunted Town Of St. Nazianz, WI St. Nazians was founded by a priest who wholeheartedly believed to helped cursed the town. Over the years, the town has been hit with natural disasters and unexplained phenomena. Father Ambrose Oschwald was fled to Wisconsin in 1854 from religious persecution. The Roman Catholic Church had suspended him from his duties due to “mystical, prophetic, and heretical works.” Already, the scary history of the town is starting to make sense! Oddly enough, the congregation followed him. Once they got to Wisconsin, a “divine white heifer” lead them to the site of his new home which would become St. Nazianz. The community actually thrived. They titled themselves “The Association” and created an entirely functional society. Tragically, Father Oschwald became sick in 1873. Anton Still, a loyal follower, stayed with Father Osc...

THE TOUCHING STORY OF THE U.S. SOLDIER PLAYING DEAD INSIDE A FRENCH RENAULT FT-17 TANK KNOCKED.

 U.S. soldier playing dead inside a French Renault FT-17 tank knocked over on its side, 1918.

Today I'll write about the French tanks of the First World War, namely the Schneider CA-1, the Saint-Chamond and the Renault FT-17. 

Inspired by the British Mark tanks, the French arms producer Schneider took the lead for the production of the first French tank in 1916. They developed the Schneider CA-1 tank, which saw action first in the French Nivelle Offensive in April 1917.

The Schneider CA-1 was designed to open passages for the infantry through barbed wire and destroy German machine gun nests, with a 75 mm cannon as well as 2 machine-guns. However, it suffered from poor mobility, insufficient fire-power, a cramped interior, and vulnerability to German artillery. Nevertheless, they were used by the French all the way up until September 1918.

The second tank built by the French was the Saint-Chamond, first deployed in May 1917. The Saint-Chamond looked like a huge box and was the heaviest Allied tank of the war at 23 tonnes. It had a 75 mm cannon in the front with 4 machine-guns on the sides. The Saint-Chamond was intimidating, but was liable to get stuck in trenches and suffered from an underpowered engine. 

The third and by far the most influential  French tank of the war was the Renault FT-17 (pictured). It was smaller and speedy, making it a tricky target, and armed with a rotating machine gun, only taking 2 crewmembers to operate - a driver and a machine-gunner. They were first used in May 1918 and saw much success. The rotating machine gun and speed, combined with the ability to deploy many at once, made all the difference.

Around 4,500 Renault FT-17 tanks were produced in the First World War, the highest number of any tank. They were much cheaper to produce due to the smaller scale - 5 or 6 could be produced for the price of a single Saint-Chamond.

The Renault FT would be adopted by many countries in many future wars, including the Second World War.

Separate camps and compounds were set up exclusively for female prisoners who were considered strong enough for labor projects and menial chores. The largest women’s camp was Ravensbrück (near Berlin), where nearly 120,000 women from across Europe were sent. An estimated 50,000 women died there between 1939 and 1945.

Sick ISIS savages film themselves burning two Turkish soldiers alive in disturbing new execution video after capturing them in Aleppo Sick ISIS savages have filmed themselves burning two Turkish soldiers alive having captured them in Aleppo. A disturbing video shows two men with freshly-shaved heads dressed in seemingly fuel-doused camouflage army gear taken out of a cage and walked like dogs to their death by Islamic State thugs. Standing barefoot in the middle of a desert, they are connected by the neck to a torched fuse which eventually engulfs their bodies in flames.  As news of the video reached Turkey, the government shut down social media outlets to stop the victims' countrymen seeing the exectuion.   The 19-minute video released by ISIS in the Aleppo Province starts with footage of terrorists fighting on the ground.  At the end of the clip, two men are taken from a cage in the middle of the desert.  They are walked like dogs by two ISIS militants, who ap...
