Admiral Kolchak (2008) trailer

Another historical epic from Russia - this time about the white Russian Admiral Kolchak. Looks from the trailer like its an interesting tale...what do you think?

The War Illustrated

This is an original way to present photos - Russian Great War reenactment photos are presented using captions and images from the contemporary magazine, The War Illustrated. Also The Kaiser's Huns in Various Moods and Places, and With Our Allies on Western and Eastern fronts. Looking forward to more.

The Great War scene in Russia

Some excellent snowy pics of recreated trench warfare from the era 1914-17 are on this site - mostly taken recently. As you can see winter's already arrived with scenes depicted reminiscent of the first Christmas in the trenches. Nice to see Lambs Navy Rum still has the power to keep out the cold even that far north. Apparently there was a rugby match between the Allies and the Austrians as well, between skirmishes.
