Flora Sandes (22 January 1876 – 24 November 1956) was a British woman who served as an officer of the Royal Serbian Army in World War I. She was the only British woman officially to serve as a soldier in WWI. Initially a St. John Ambulance volunteer, she travelled to the Kingdom of Serbia, where, in the confusion of war, she was formally enrolled in the Serbian army. She was subsequently promoted to the rank of Sergeant major, and, after the war, to Captain. She was decorated with seven medals.
In the autumn of 1916, Flora fought in a series of bloody battles in the bitterly cold mountains of Macedonia. On 16 November, during the Serbian advance on Monastir, she was involved in desperate hand to hand combat when she was seriously wounded by an exploding grenade. She sustained 28 shrapnel injuries to her back and the right side of her body from shoulder to knee; her right arm was also shattered and badly lacerated. Bleeding and unconscious, she was rescued by a lieutenant in her company who crawled out under fire to drag her back to safety.
Flora was taken to a British military field hospital for Serbians, where she remained for about 2 months. While recovering there, she was presented with Serbia’s highest military decoration for bravery, the Order of the Star of Karađorđe, for her exceptional courage under fire. She was also promoted to the rank of Sergeant Major. She was given sick leave in England, where she raised more funds for Serbian soldiers. In May 1917, she returned to her regiment and took part in all further operations until the end of the war.

i drew this little friend and i dont know what he is but i love him
Don’t worry, friends. Little guy is ok.
he doesnt have arms to drink that tea that is a threat in disguise
goodbye small fucker
LEAVE HIM ALONE
I’m going to help train our friend, I won’t stand to see him take this abuse any longer
We’re taking it a bit slow because he’s still recovering, but his training is coming along nicely! You can do it, little guy!
looks like all that training is starting to pay off
I will resurrect many time with more strangth.
Revenge is sweet.
goodbye small fucker
I always love these because you get to see so many different art styles but holy fuck guys someone needs to get him a spikey hat or knights armour covered in razor blades
I love how every time I see this there’s a new addition
The saga continues
…You IDIOTS.
The only version I will ever reblog is this one
Flowey no
no mercy small fucker
After all this time fighting, the little guy and his enemy realized that it was all pointless. Since the beginning, the hate for each other had only make them stronger but by accepting their differences and learning to respect each other, they realized that they don’t have to keep being rivals, but perhaps something else.
even if their relationship may have started badly, the strong bond between them will last forever, by helping each others with what they lack and learning to accept that even if people have difference it would only make a world a more interesting place to be c:
Just the happy ending I needed
YAS FINALLY
Fucking iconic
Starting off my 2018 right
Oh my god
@sketch-shepherd I don’t think you’ve seen this legendary post yet
I… I haven’t.
These tumblr things makes me believe in humanity
THE DIFFERENT ARTSTYLES
THE ORIGINAL ARTIST WHO THINK THEY MESSEP BUT IN REALITY MADE AN ICONIC CHARACTER
this makes me feel like i’m sitting somewhere like a stairwell or bathroom outside of a christmas party i’m not really feeling and while i thought coming here might be fun and good for me it’s just made me realize how isolated i really am from people
tumblr sucked yet its the only thing people like us could ever have posted on. tumblr was a deep sea geothermal vent and we are all pallid, desperate crabs snapping at the dark toxcic nutrients spweing from its hole, and bringing us into the harsh light of the instagram influencersphere would kill us instantly.
I study hydrothermal vents and I endorse this metaphor, especially the way it implicitly makes Yahoo a deep-sea mining company that doesn’t understand the role of vent fauna in the ocean ecosystem
