Guest Posted 9 February , 2018 Share Posted 9 February , 2018 This link is impressive when you consider that the destruction took place in such a short period one hundred years ago. Thank you for posting. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trajan Posted 11 February , 2018 Share Posted 11 February , 2018 Absolutely great link! Thanks for providing it. Somewhat mystified by the dark line running NW-SE on the right hand side of the 'Passendale' photograph in 1917 - I don't know the area, is it a filled-in canal?

HenryTheGerman Posted 12 February , 2018 Share Posted 12 February , 2018 Very impressive! - Considering that about 8 - 10% of the shells and bombs that were fired did not explode, a terrific number of duds still must be in the ground below the ploughpan. - Is there ever an extensive search for shells being made, by using modern electronic detectors?
