I found that a very interesting fact. We hear so much about gas in the war, but really nothing about avalanches. http://www.worldwar1.com/itafront/avalan.htm
Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

There are videos on youtube that explore some of the tunnels that hid gun emplacements.
Read up on this in High School in the 70s, some interesting facts for sure, and get orders to go up there was a death sentence for most.

A mostly forgotten part of WWI. It must have been a horrifying experience up there in the mountains!
In all my years I've never seen the like. It has to be more than a hundred sea miles and he brings us up on his tail. That's seamanship, Mr. Pullings. My God, that's seamanship!

A mostly forgotten part of WWI. It almost exclusively involved Austria-Hungary and Italy so hence why.

The biography of Erwin Rommel (who fought in the mountain war of WW1 as a young junior officer) is a fascinating insight into that front from the German perspective.
