After watching the clip from Gallipoli i saw a lot of unpleasent things. From deaths to destruction everywhere. During WWI soilders did not have it easy , knowing you are always at risk is not something easy to live with. Always being afaid of what may happen next. In the video i saw destruction from the massive artillery such as guns and cannons as well as barbed wire and fires. In the clip i saw many soilders dead or injured. During the was the medical assitance the soilders recieved was not half as good as what they recive today. Back then there were not that many doctors and nurses, most were not so experienced. The tools we have today were not invented back then so when a soilder was injured their wounds would get infected instantly from all the germs going around, all their tools were not sanitized. Being treated at the scene of the even made it hard for everyone to be taken care of instantly. Soilders would get cuts from barded wires and their wounds would get infexted.
During WWI the greatest number of casualties occured, all these casualties had a big effect on all of society. If soilders died at war, more than one person would be effected. For example , the sons and daughters of the soilders, if their father dies at war sometimes even their mothers also went to war, the kids would be left with no parents , no one to take care and watch after them, they would have to be raised with other family members. Or in other cases if the father dies, the mom would become a single mom trying to support the family on her own,she may work very had and might still not even make enough money to support everyone. That is were crime starts becoming a problem because the families or individuals themselves do not have enough money and will start doing anything to get money. That not only impacts individuals but it impats society as well, having so many criminals doing anything possible to get more money. All the casualties effected families as well as all of society.
