Still trying to get over seeing so many sharp-looking uniformed persons in the armed forces every day.
They all look so lovely, but I’d really hate to be them. Really.
From the past with love.

Enjoy: Bolan. Maels. Pin-up girls. Rock icons. Nostalgia.

I dont care if im a party blog, there is nothing as beautiful as this. If you have a heart, youd take 20 seconds and reblog this picture to appreciate what these soldiers do. They leave their families, friends, children, to fight for our country. SOmuch respect for soldiers.
I want to die looking at this. No.
This breaks my heart. War destroys so much.

military army war end the fucking war now. mother daughter sad family government tragedy
My boyfriend is in the army. He has a high chance of being deployed, so we’re hoping to marry within a year. He told me that if he dies in combat, I’ll be left with a large sum of money. I began to cry, almost immediately, and told him that there’s nothing that could ever bring him back. No amount of money, no amount of tears, no amount of blood or agony could ever bring him back to me. What good would it bring? I’d be set, financially, but for what? The rest of my miserable existence without him?

War has caused unrest within the younger generation. Induction, then destruction. Who wants to die?

A soldier calls his father shortly after DADT is repealed.
This is possibly the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. ♥

I decided to sign up for this in hopes that a few kind souls would come forward and help us out a little, with the task of getting me “home” where I belong. Please take a look, even if you are unable to donate to our cause. ♥

Some photos of WWI veterans with their tin masks, some surviving pieces, and a couple WWI plastic surgery photographs. Sorry if this offends you somehow; I find it fascinating.
Because of advances made in medicine, in WWI far more soldiers were surviving disfiguring facial injuries than ever before; this led to the rise in cosmetic surgery and prosthetics- the masks, though more aesthetically appealing than the early plastic surgery, were unsettling because they obviously didn’t move with the wearer’s face, creating a dead-eyed, doll like look. They fell out of favor by WWII, but many men who had received tin masks kept and used them for life.
like the guy on Boardwalk Empire.
the tin masks are amazing
NHS hospitals do still supply silicone versions of prophetic eyes held in place with spectacles, like the middle images. They’re very hard to fit but actually quite impressive.
Just look at the incredible things modern medicine was up to even in that day and age. Astounding.
