RWTF,

I agree - a totally unneccessary slaughter of a whole generation.

For anyone who is interested in the background and the real, fairly twisted and complicated, 'reasons' of WWI
I recommend Barbara Tuchmann 'The Guns of August' and 'The Proud Tower'

I had the same thought - there could not have been too much hunting going on in Germany in 1915 - perhaps it was very early in 1915, before the fighting really got bogged down in the middle of that year.
