I am looking for information and photographs (e.g. the cayennemolen ) about ' Drie Grachten '.

Thanks,

The best pics I have personally seen concerning Drie Grachten before and after without doubt appear in:

"The Great War seen from the air" "In Flanders Fields" by Mercatorfonds.

Tis expensive but brilliant. :thumbsup:

To Chris,

Indeed, excellent book with splendid photos.

Even if the book is rather expensive, it's worth bying !!!!

I do have the dutch language version.

As far as it concerns ' Drie Grachten ' , the photo of the map (see nr 54 ) mentions the name of the mill, cavennemolen, as called by the French'

I do think that the map is edited by the French army. What is your opinion ?

Does anyone know other photos ?

Gilbert :hypocrite:

Gilbert,

 

That's all I have (April 1915). Not a standing windmill and I'm afraid Belgian troops have already done their work .... And mind you, the windmill on maps and in German Regimental histories is spelled with a -v-, but obviously this is a misreading.
