    1. Notice that someone had removed his combat boots. This was common as boots in good condition were in shot supply at the front so any corpse with footwear in good condition had them taken.

      There was a story i remember reading about a Canadian soldier who was either crucified or nailed to a door, whether it was real or propaganda at the time??

      Ive never understood why people wear cross jewelry. Crosses are execution methods. Akin to wearing an electric chair charm or a noose charm.
