This risks opening a discussion that belongs on the forum.  

That said, I think there is value in seeing the horror of the machine of 
Napoleonic warfare up close, albeit sanitized. 

I shared these images, because some of my friends worked hard to present an 
honest portrayal of what might have been a battle in a terrible war in a 
divided nation.  I took my time and tried to present images that equal their 
effort.

That's the "more" I was referring to, when Jay made light of it.
