Such a shame

A boy as young as he went to fight a war

So proud of his country and uniform

Just seventeen on that ANZAC Cove shore

Such a shame

There was no return to home and family

His Mum and Dad would ne'er again find peace

Now no chance to be the man he could have been

Such a shame

For he never did work in the bush on those big sheep runs

He'd said I'll be shearing soon when our job over here is done

I'll be holding a pair of shears not this loaded gun

Such a shame

He never met the lady of his life

Gave to her his hand as his mother softly cried

He didn't dance that first waltz as man and wife

Such a shame

That he never held his baby in his arms

Felt the joy and love from within a father's heart

He didn't see those first steps out in the yard

Such a shame

He never marched with his mates on that April day

Stood at dawn and heard that sad bugle play

Had a beer and a yarn and passed the time away

Such a shame

For he never got to grow old gracefully

Spend Christmas with his growing family

Live a life full of love and peace

No his body lies there so far across the sea

And that's such a shame

Such a shame

​

The Black Watch (1929)

The Black Watch (1929) is a historical war drama directed by John Ford, marking his first foray into sound films. Set during the British colonial era and adapted from Talbot Mundy's novel King of the Khyber Rifles, the film intertwines romance, adventure, and military duty. It tells the story of Captain Donald King (played by Victor McLaglen) of the British Army’s Black Watch regiment. On the eve of World War I, King is unexpectedly reassigned from the frontlines to a covert mission in India. Disguised as a native, he is tasked with preventing a tribal uprising. His mission becomes increasingly complicated when he encounters Yasmani (played by Myrna Loy), a mysterious and enchanting woman aligned with the rebels. The narrative explores themes of loyalty, duty, and cross-cultural romance. The cast features notable performances, with Victor McLaglen bringing gravitas to the role of a conflicted soldier. Myrna Loy, in one of her early roles, plays Yasmani, offering a glimpse into her transformation from exoticized characters to her later reputation as Hollywood's "perfect wife." Supporting roles by David Torrence, Cyril Chadwick, and Lumsden Hare add depth to the film’s portrayal of military life and intrigue.

World War I in Film: Innovation and Struggle

This video consists of two silent films created by the U.S. War Department which I have brought together, one called Shots of War, a film designed to show highlights of the World War One fight and the other called Types of Weapons and Equipment showing the innovations in weapons being created in World War One such as new artillery, aircraft, tank, and ship improvements. World War One Ace Eddie Rickenbacker is in the video and as well as Generals Pershing and Joffre. You will see French refugees streaming from France when the Germans attack, and highlights of the Meuse-Argonne as well as St. Mihiel battles, German prisoners, U.S. soldier Doughboys in the trenches and ‘going over the top,’ an American Observation Balloon being shot down, and more.
