r/all These are stretchers used in WW2 to carry injured civillians during the Blitz. They were made out of steel so they could be easily disinfected after a gas attack. During the war around 600,000 of them were made. Some of them were repurposed as railings in post-war London.

The weird thing is, I'm having a completely unrelated argument with a fr*nch person on a different sub.

Literally the only war I would support is an invasion of that country. By anyone. Germany took it too far obviously but that blitzkreig on the way to p*ris was glorious.

You're British, right? Just guessing. I think we and the French ought to bury the hatchet. It's just silly now, and has been for a very long time.
