Seadog Posted 5 September , 2013 Share Posted 5 September , 2013 Excellent even eight years after Inverness Copse ( wrecked tank) seems to consist of one shattered tree. Norman i'm having trouble seeing it, it's pixelating. Maybe just a bad connection speed at the moment?

Doug504 Posted 5 September , 2013 Share Posted 5 September , 2013 Fascinating film, as an ecologist, a particular interest of mine is the restoration and recolonisation of the battlefield areas and how this was accomplished. Allan Douglas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seadog Posted 5 September , 2013 Share Posted 5 September , 2013 Unlikely the OS Mike could just be atmospherics; anyway it works perfectly for me. Good luck Norman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anneca Posted 6 September , 2013 Share Posted 6 September , 2013 Fantastic film Egbert. I was not surprised to see the many stark dead tree trunks that had been shelled to bits, but amazed by those trees that had survived with flimsy branches which had miraculously grown back from the tops of the trunks in a weird sort of way.

I think he escaped that part unscathed but his visit in 1917with the 8th Seaforth was a bit different. Good job both our grandfathers survived!!
