Your country's worst military disaster?
>British casualties of 57,470, (19,240 of which had been fatal) on the first day of the Somme have been a source of grief and controversy in Britain.

> On 16 June 1955, 30 aircraft from the Argentine Navy and Air Force bombed and strafed Plaza de Mayo, the main square of the Argentine capital Buenos Aires. The attack targeted the adjacent Casa Rosada, the seat of government, while a large crowd demonstrated in support of the president, Juan Perón. The strike took place during a day of official public demonstrations to condemn the burning of a national flag allegedly carried out by detractors of Perón during the recent Corpus Christi procession. The military reacted as a result of growing tension between Perón and his actions against the Roman Catholic Church. The action was to be the first step in an eventually aborted coup d'état. The number of identified bodies was put at 308, including six children, making it the deadliest terrorist attack in Argentine history.

>After weeks of preparation, on July 30 Union forces exploded a mine across from Union Major General Ambrose E. Burnside's IX Corps sector, blowing a gap in the Confederate defenses of Petersburg, Virginia. Instead of being a decisive advantage to the Union, this precipitated a rapid deterioration in the Union position. Unit after unit charged into and around the crater, where most of the soldiers milled in confusion in the bottom of the crater. Grant considered this failed assault as "the saddest affair I have witnessed in this war."

9th april 1940.
most military installations where on so called neutrality guard but it had no clear instructions on what to do if our neutrality was breached and who the enemy was. publicly we where both anti uk and germany, not publicly we were pro uk anti germany. the sinking of blucher was done on that single officers command and he was one of few who got what was at stake and he fired knowing that they could be british boats still a breach of neutrality so justified anyway. if everyone all over norway understood the stakes the german invasion would have been severely delayed if not straight out impossible the way the planned it.
