The assassination of Anwar Sadat, 1981 http://i.imgur.com/vlRgH7S.jpg
The assassins’ bullets ended the life of a man who earned a reputation for making bold decisions in foreign affairs, a reputation based in large part on his decision in 1977 to journey to the camp of Egypt’s foe, Israel, to make peace.

Berlin at the end of the War, 1945 http://i.imgur.com/FRDiSZj.jpg
Berlin as the capital and cultural center of the German Reich was bombed very heavily. With over 45,000 tons of bombs in two weeks the city was almost completely destroyed. The irreplaceable architectural gems of the Schlüter, Knobelsdorf, Schadow and Schinkel were annihilated. Palaces, museums, churches, monuments and cultural sites fell victim to the bombs.
Smart, beautiful and deadly, 19 year old Russian sniper Roza Shanina had 54 confirmed kills http://i.imgur.com/L68S9qk.png
Shanina volunteered for the military after the death of her brother in 1941 and chose to be a marksman on the front line.

Allied newspapers described Shanina as “the unseen terror of East Prussiaâ€
Reichserntedankfest rally (Thanksgiving Celebration of the Reich), 1934 http://i.imgur.com/gZZFvOG.jpg
This is the Reichserntedankfest of 1934 in Buckeberg. That year, 800,000 people participated. Even those who did not support Nazis were totally blown away and emotionally shaken. They had never experienced anything even remotely like this, there was no rock concerts back then. It created spiritual feeling of sublime and unity among people who were participating.

The Fat Man on transport carriage, Tinian Island, 1945 http://i.imgur.com/amVpVdf.jpg
It’s so odd to see that an object roughly the same size as an SUV can destroy an entire city and leave radioactive damage for lifetimes afterwards. The Fat Man and Trinity were both implosion based plutonium devices, but they were very different weapons. Trinity’s “the gadget†was a massive unemployable bomb that would test the theories that Fat Man was based on.
Japanese soldiers surrendering to US Marines, Marshall Islands, 1944 http://i.imgur.com/F67Sety.jpg
He is naked because he was probably ordered to strip so he wasn’t concealing a weapon or explosive. It was very rare for Japanese soldiers to surrender as it was deemed dishonorable. Those huge steel doors, and thick walls, must be a bunker of some kind. Probably a bunker with an artillery gun inside, maybe a coastal battery.

Preparing for an assault on a warehouse in Stalingrad, 1942 http://i.imgur.com/MjKXauL.jpg
By September 1942, a brutal hand-to-hand battle was being waged inside Stalingrad. As they fought from house to house and street to street, the Germans found that all of the tactical advantages they had possessed in fighting across the steppes were lost in the close confines of the city.
Residents of West Berlin show children to their grandparents who reside on the Eastern side, 1961 http://i.imgur.com/Sr5dcYH.jpg
The building of the Berlin Wall in August 1961 divided families and neighborhoods in what had been the capital of Germany. The Wall represents a uniquely squalid, violent, and ultimately futile, episode in the post-war world. Life was changed overnight in Berlin.

Berlin Wall Rescue http://i.imgur.com/Akz5ap9.jpg
This German soldier from the East knew he shouldn’t let this child across the Berlin Wall, but he was separated from his parents. So, the guard lifts him across the barbed wire anyway, on the lookout for anyone who may catch him.

The end of Soviet military occupation, which began in 1979, has left the Afghan Army more vulnerable to these guerrilla forces, who are fighting the Russian-installed Afghan government.

the strict world of British military protocol, there are even rules on how to faint with dignity. There are two main reasons why the guards of honor pass out: it can get pretty hot and they’ll lock their knees. Usually it’s the combination of both that gets you.
Testing football helmets, 1912 http://i.imgur.com/s2oY1ek.jpg
In professional football, the only line of defense against head injury is the helmet. But the earliest football helmet looked more like a padded aviator cap than the high-tech crash-tested helmet used by today’s players. It is not certain who invented the football helmet.
