Old Photos For No Reason Whatsoever

Horrible one this one but it serves as a reminder that there's very few winners in war but there are many casualties. This is a 10 year old lad in Nagasaki, 1945 with his dead baby brother on his back. He carried him to the casualty centre and on seeing him (the baby) they took him and gently placed him on the funeral pyre and cremated his tiny body. His brother stood to attention, watching the scene all the time biting his lip so hard to stop himself from crying, he's a lot harder than I am.

War, what is it good for. Got that right...

Sadly a stark reminder that it's still relevant today with the genocide in Palestine.

Pity his countries leaders hadn't thought of scenes like this before they killed many personal at Pearl Harbour,
Don't matter how big your hammer is there is always someone, some where, with a BIGGER one.
.........and so it goes on and on.
Fuck sake humanity, 'WAKE UP', wake up......................................?

Rocky Marciano vs Ezzard Charles in June, 1954. Marciano won on points but was so impressed by Charles he gave him a rematch. The Rock had a cut over his left eye that his cutman described as the worst he'd ever seen.


Fast forward to September of the same year and this time Charles was ko'd in the eighth round. Not before a misplaced elbow ripped Marcianos nose apart though.



Different world, different breed.
