@FlandersWW1 My grandfather was a private in the Warwickshires, he stayed in 'Pop' (Poperinge) he was shot in legs at Ypres. He was in no mans land but found. As he was carried down a track, it was shelled, he said drop me lads and they did! He recovered at eat apples (Etaples).
OTD 4th October 1917, the Battle of Broodseinde began. The first time during WW1 that all four Anzac divisions together took on a major objective. Plumer called the attack "the greatest victory since the Marne". German Official History referred to "the black day of October 4".
A little extra poignancy right now at the Menin Gate @CWGC @lastpostieper @FlandersWW1 #lestweforget
Today was the last day of this phase of the excavation. We concluded with a German shelter that took a direct hit. You can see the floor pushed downwards by the explosion and parts of the wall being pushed in. Looking forward to the next phase #FWW #Archaeology
There was a surprise underneath the wooden beams that we unearthed yesterday... #FWW #Archaeology
Almost finished... We’re looking at the traverse of a German trench that is partially outside our excavation area. Next to it, there’s an added trench that might be the turned trench dug by the Commonwealth forces that took this position in the summer of 1917 #FWW #Archaeology
