Child soldiers of the USSR

The military usage of children was very widespread all across the world on every continent. Kids as young as the age needed to attend elementary school would join up and fight. They would either take up arms and be involved directly in battle, or they would be support to the main force. After the 70s the usage of children in battle was lowered but it is still occurs today, mainly in Africa.

Child soldiers.

During WW2 there was a high number of child soldiers everywhere. Both the Axis and the Allied side. A lot of them were in the former Soviet Union. It was very common that orphans would join the army and serve in the front lines. They were also called "sons of the regiment".

Hindenburg airship disaster (HR)

Definitely one of the worst and one of the most covered air traffic accidents to have ever occurred. The accident happened in 1937 as the airship was trying to dock in New Jersey, after a long trip from Frankfurt. The result of the accident is that roughly one third of the people flying died. The disaster was labeled as a technical accident due to gas leakage and static electricity.

Th Hindenburg airship in it's fatal moment.

The effect of this moment in history was the sudden stop of usage of airships and a massive blow to the peoples faith in them, which has never been fully restored, even though blimps/airships are now very safe and well made.
