1914–1915 Two war cemeteriesDva vojnové cintoríny

The Carpathian front of the winter of 1914–15 was fought along the ridges that close this valley on the north and east, a few kilometres from the town. It was one of the worst places to be a soldier in the whole First World War: mountain fighting in snow, with frostbite and typhus killing as reliably as gunfire. Two military cemeteries survive close to Snina — Giglov with 130 graves and Brehy with 153. They are small numbers, and that is the point: multiply them by every valley along this crest.Karpatský front v zime 1914 – 1915 sa viedol po hrebeňoch, ktoré túto dolinu uzatvárajú zo severu a východu, pár kilometrov od mesta. Bolo to jedno z najhorších miest, kde mohol vojak v prvej svetovej vojne skončiť: horské boje v snehu, kde omrzliny a týfus zabíjali rovnako spoľahlivo ako paľba. Neďaleko Sniny sa zachovali dva vojenské cintoríny — Giglov so 130 hrobmi a Brehy so 153. Sú to malé čísla a práve o to ide: vynásobte ich počtom dolín pozdĺž celého hrebeňa.
