In contrast to the other images in the "Yokohama Album", this is one of more than 40 photographs which are obviously purchased. They are mostly occupational views (fabric manufacturing, weaving, rice cultivation etc.) and I assume that the photographer was T. Enami. I have seen tinted versions of some of these photographs and also stereoviews of the same subjects. From the album of a german (?) tradesman living and working in Yokohama around 1908.

This NO PREP stations activity presents a variety of weapon advancement topics with intriguing primary source accounts and visually appealing photosets. The resource is available in PDF and Google Docs formats! Increase student growth and engagement using fun and effective methods! Each station contains a brief introduction and enthralling primary source accounts of WWI weapons. After completing this lesson, students will understand how technological advancements altered modern warfare and resulted in high numbers of casualties throughout the war. The lesson is easily adaptable to fit your teaching style. Students will examine each of the following topics: 1. World War I – The First Modern War 2. Tanks 3. Poison Gas 4. Submarines 5. Airplanes 6. Machine Guns / Artillery The following methods have proven to be the most successful in my classroom: 1. Go Virtual! Included directions for teachers make implementing the digital activity a breeze. - Students individually examine all station passages and complete the corresponding Google Docs worksheet (with pre-inserted text answer boxes for increased ease of use) and submit through Google Classroom. You can also assign the worksheet to a group of students and allow them to work together virtually to complete the assignment. 2. Hang the information sheets around the class and have students rotate to each sheet. - This is my favorite because it gets students up and moving. You can assign the worksheet that accompanies this activity, or simply have them summarize each topic as they rotate. 3. Split the students into groups and assign one sheet per group. Have the students read the information sheet and prepare to present the information to the rest of the class. - I assign a number to each group member (number the first group, then start back at 1 for the next group, so that you have multiple 1’s, 2’s, etc. throughout the class) and after students have had adequate time to prepare I tell them all the 2’s are presenting. This method motivates students because they don’t know which group member is presenting until it is time to present. 4. Form groups of 6 and have the students pass around the information sheets. - I’ve found the best approach for this method is to give students a set amount of time and then have all students pass their sheets to the right when told. The versatility of this activity allows for several culminating assessments. Typically, once students have completed one of the methods above, I have them pick which weapon they believe had the largest impact on the war and write a brief defense for the topic they picked. Then, I conduct a debate in which students can defend their choice. Another option is to have students write a journal entry from the point of view of a soldier during World War I. I encourage them to include as much information from the stations as possible. I hope you and your students enjoy this activity.

This telegram informs the family that Charles was Killed in Action on 22nd March 1918, the second day of the German Spring Offensive. The main thrust of the German advance was in the area south of Saint Quentin, where the allied defences were at their weakest, and it was here that Charles' regiment was stationed and working as a dismounted unit in support of the infantry. The German attack began on March 21st and resulted in heavy casualties; on the 22nd the Regimental War Diary records that the 20th Hussars retreated across the Crozat Canal, marched to Faillouel, then to sand-pits between there and Jussy, which the Germens entered later in the day. There is no mention of any action that day by the 20th Hussars but the casualty list records three Other Ranks KIA, one of whom must have been Charles Ringham.
