in reference to World War 1, waht does WAGR stand for?

I believe it meant Wagoneer.  Many men had this designation and were in the support batallions.  Support would have meat bringing supplies to the front.  They would have been in wagons and carts.  Therefore these men would have been assinged to these wagons, loading and unloading them.

The first world war was referred to both as \n' The Great War ' in old English referrence to large or of  moment, also, misleadingly, ' The War To End All Wars ' as the second world war disproved so effectively. It was called The Second World War from the start, I think. I prefer Archie Bunker's call on it:\n\n" Da big one. Douba - ya douba - ya two. "\n\nNo. I doubt there's going to be a WWIII. We all know it doesn't go out that way.

The First World War, or (before 1939) the Great War, was a world conflict lasting from August 1914 to the final Armistice on November 11, 1918. The Allied Powers (led by the United Kingdom, France and until 1917 Russia, and, after 1917, the United States) defeated the Central Powers (led by the German Empire, Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire). The war caused the collapse of four empires and a radical change in the map of Europe and the Middle East.

Fabrique Nationale, the Belgin national firearms group produced dozens of different military and civillian weapons from the late 1800's to this day.\nDe Guerre, means "for war" indicating that yes, this is a military weapon. \nThe caliber .30-06 narrows things down a bit. While F.N.       MAY have produced Mauser rifles in that caliber for some contracts, The definitly produced a semi-automatic rifle in that caliber, and It has considerable collector and shooter interest.\nIf you can't find it on the gunbroker page someone else suggested, Try going to security arms photo archive and scrolling down to F.N. guns and looking for one like yours.\nHollar back and let us know what you found!

In addition to machine guns and many different types of poison gas (mustard, chlorine, etc.), there was also the grenade, the flamethrower, the tank, and the zeppelin. Although there were some airplanes, they did not play a huge role in WWI because they still weren't developed enough to do much damage.\n\nYou should check out http://firstworldwar.com, it's bound to have all the info you need on WWI. :O

A dream that has already happened.  Prior to 1914 and the first world war, there were no weapons of Mass Dist ruction.  War still occurred and countries invaded each other.  Countries were threatened all of the time.  \n\nBesides, the genie is out of the bottle and can't be put back into the bottle.  If such weapons were done away with do you really think that some nation wouldn't develop them in secret?  Of course they would and then they would rule the world.\n\nA nice dream, but not reflective of reality.

I'm reminded of this song because today is Nov. 11 (Veterans' Day or Remembrance Day, depending on where you live). It's called 'The Band Played Waltzing Matilda', written by Eric Bogle, I believe. The version I've heard was recorded by Liam Clancy. It tells of a young Australian lad who loved to travel around his country with his backpack, til he joined the army and was sent with the other Aussies to Gallipoli. He was one of the few who returned. It's a very sad song, yet also hauntingly beautiful.  It sums up the tragedy of war, which the young men thought would be such a great adventure.
