Your knees and hips are your largest joints. They support your body's weight and must work in close coordination to provide the mobility most people take for granted, until injury, arthritis, or other problems interfere.
The Battle of Verdun was one of the longest and bloodiest battles in human history, taking place during World War I. The battle was between German and French forces and took place from February 21, 1916 to December 18, 1916. The location was around the city of Verdun-sur-Meuse in the northeastern part of France. By the end of the battle, more than 250,000 people died and more than a million people were wounded.
Consequently there were 10,944 casualties of which 2,738 men died on the last day of the war.[4] Augustin TrÃ©buchon was the last Frenchman to die when he was shot on his way to tell fellow soldiers that hot soup would be served after the ceasefire. He was killed at 10:45 am.
