A video with footage of World War One tanks and the men who worked along-side with them.
This video has taken many forms. It first had narration and then it had written facts, but both of these didn't seem to work. The music also went through several different directions with no pleasing results.
Yes we know it still isn't the best it can be but forget about the music and just enjoy this rare and intresting footage.

| | Pt 1 - World War 1 American Legacy, documentary series WW1 - 638 sec
World War 1 American Legacy is a documentary series on DVD about the American involvement in WW1 and how it changed our country. The series was filmed in High Definition to portray the most detailed WWI images ever seen on screen.
The Great War (also called the War to End All Wars) cost the lives of millions in battles like the Somme and Verdum. Even though the United States didn't officially enter the war until 1917, some American men and women volunteered for service as early as 1914. They drove ambulances, worked for the Red Cross, fought in the trenches and flew airplanes.
Films like Lawrence of Arabia, Gallipoli, Flyboys and All Quiet on the Western Front have portrayed the war on screen. However, private collection photographs from the front, veteran letters and drawings from newspapers may give the most accurate, personal details available to us today from World War I.
The last surviving American veterans have been in the news recently showing the interest that Americans have in this forgetten war.
Dramatically narrated by David Carradine the series is available on DVD from retailers like Amazon.com

| | Blood and Oil - Middle East in WWI Pt 20: Greco-Turkish War - 373 sec
Part 20 - Greco-Turkish War. The Allies, exhausted from four years of total war, readily accept Greece's offer to suppress the Turkish nationalist movement. On May 15, 1919, a Greek Army lands on the western coast of Turkey, with an Italian force also landing farther south. By July, Greek forces have captured a large portion of western Turkey, encountering little opposition.
Having disposed of the Armenian threat in the east, Turkish forces turn toward the Greek army in the west. In August 1922, the Turks launch a counter-offensive and drive the Greeks back toward Izmir (Smyrna) on the southwest coast of Turkey. On September 11th, the Turks recapture Izmir, and Kemal advances toward British forces at Istanbul.
Except for the Dardanelles/Gallipoli campaigns, the extensive combat operations in the Middle East during World War I have been largely overlooked in documentary programs. Given the historical significance of the Ottoman Empire's demise in 1918, and the ongoing importance of Middle Eastern oil reserves to Western economies, a close study of this conflict provides two important lessons:
1. The Treaty of Versailles, agreed to by the Western Powers in 1919, paved the way for military and political chaos in the Middle East, which continues to this very day.
2. Oil reserves in the Middle East became an important strategic concern for Western Powers, helping to justify their economic, diplomatic and military interference in the region.
After the end of World War I, most of the Ottoman Empire was carved up into "spheres of influence", controlled mostly by the British and French. The remaining territories became the modern state of Turkey in 1923 -- after a five-year struggle by Turkish nationalists against Western domination.
With little regard for cultural, historical, religious and demographic considerations, the West sponsored the creation of several new nations: Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Jordan and Saudi Arabia. Thus, a "tinderbox" was built from Western greed, igniting a multitude of wars, revolts, coups and military occupations that truly have made the defeat of the Ottoman Empire little more than a hollow victory.

| | Blood and Oil - Middle East in WWI Pt 2: Military Disaster - 200 sec
Part 2 - Military Disaster. Enver Pasha takes personal command of the Ottoman Third Army (95,000 men) and sends it to attack Russian forces in the Caucasus. German military advisor, General Liman von Sanders, advises against a mountain offensive in winter. On December 29, 1914, the Ottoman advance is halted by about 100,000 Russian troops at Sarikamesh. Six days later, the Turks have lost 30,000 men and reel back toward the city of Erzurum. More soldiers desert or die of frostbite; more than half of the Third Army is lost.

| | Blood and Oil -- Middle East in WWI Pt 18: Spoils of War - 446 sec
Part 18 -- Spoils of War. Since the Sykes-Picot Agreement of 1916, France and Great Britain have planned to carve up the Ottoman Empire between them. On August 20, 1919, the Treaty of Sevres strips the Ottoman Empire of all its holdings outside Anatolia, except for a small piece of European land. France and Great Britain claim huge areas of Ottoman territory as "spheres of influence" in the Middle East, and guarantee British control of oil supplies in Iraq. On paper, the Armenians are promised an independent republic. Kemal's nationalists reject the treaty as they prepare to fight British, Armenian, French, and Greek invaders.

Part 17 - Mustafa Kemal. Leaving Istanbul under the ruse of disarming Ottoman forces in the Anatolian interior, Colonel Mustafa Kemal lands at the Black Sea port of Samsun on May 19, 1919. He rallies patriotic Turks in a nationalist front and solidifies his efforts at two separate conferences, one at Sivas and the other at Erzurum. Kemal works ceaselessly in building a new army and government to preserve the Turkish nation.

| | Blood and Oil - Middle East in WWI Pt 3: The Dardanelles - 350 sec
Part 3 - A Franco-British fleet under Admiral Sackville Carden bombards Ottoman fortifications along the Dardanelles Straits, hoping to break through to Istanbul. Carden has a nervous breakdown and Rear Admiral John de Robeck takes charge of the 16-battleship task force. On March 18th, three Allied battleships are sunk by mines and three others are disabled. De Robeck fears losing more ships and decides to call off the attack. Despite the pleas of First Admiralty Lord Winston Churchill, the Allied Fleet withdraws. If only one British battleship had made it to Istanbul, the entire course of the war might have changed.

| | Blood and Oil - Middle East in WWI Pt 22: Hollow Victory - 495 sec
Part 22 - Hollow Victory. The creation of artificial states by the Western Powers gives rise to a Middle East characterized by military conflict and political instability. Beginning in 1920 with a Muslim revolt in Iraq against British rule, the region is plagued by wars, revolts, coups, and interventions up to the present day. The need for oil to fuel Western economies, and the need for pro-Western governments in the Middle East, has been a constant political reality since the end of World War I.

Part 14 - Palestine Front. Reinforced during the summer of 1918, General Allenby plans a decisive drive against Istanbul. Utmost secrecy is maintained. British air power clears the sky of enemy observers. Dummy camps and horse lines help to obscure Allenby's intentions. The military balance is tipped heavily in favor of the British: 70,000 men and 540 guns against 8,000 Ottoman troops and 130 guns. At the Battle of Megiddo (September 19-21, 1918), the British drive the Ottoman Seventh and Eighth armies back in disorder toward the Jordan River.

Part 16 - Istanbul Surrenders. As Turkish troops retreat toward Istanbul, Allenby's army marches into Damascus on October 1, 1918 and takes Beirut the next day. The Desert Mounted Corps continues to spearhead the advance, reaching Aleppo on October 25th.
In Mesopotamia, a British force hurries north to secure the Mosul oil fields before the Ottomans can surrender. British General A.S. Cobbe speeds his cavalry to the outskirts of Mosul; they arrive on November 1st, two days after the Sultan has signed an armistice in Istanbul. Despite the fact that the war is officially over, Cobbe receives orders to take Mosul. After some squabbling, Halil Pasha agrees to evacuate his garrison from the city on November 14th. The British now control most of the oil reserves in the region.
