andigger Posted 16 December , 2004 Share Posted 16 December , 2004 Laurent were these photos taken in 1917? At least in your 1st and last pics the ground doesn't look as broken up as I would have expected it to be, and there are still entact trees. Thanks (as always) for sharing them though.

chrislock Posted 16 December , 2004 Share Posted 16 December , 2004 The 1917 Cambrai tank battles were fought over virgin and blasted ground! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Reed Posted 16 December , 2004 Share Posted 16 December , 2004 The top photos shows French tanks knocked out on the Chemin des Dames in April 1917. The second one is at Bullecourt; one of eleven tanks knocked out there in the fighting on the Hindenburg Line. It's tank No 799 and it appears in many German photos; I have four different ones to this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
