World War I (WWI or WW1) , which is also known as Great War or the First World War, was one of the largest global wars fought between different countries having far-reaching impact on humanity. Some of the armies that fought were British army, Australian army , Canadian army, Indian army which was part of Royal army under the leadership of British dominion, German army etc. Present day public can see things related to all the Great Wars (WW1 & WW2) in the museums around the world such as World War II Museum in New Orleans, LA, Smithsonian Institution in Washington D.C. and the U.S. Army Quartermaster Museum in Fort Lee, VA, where large collection of commemoration is on display rig
