As usual it's one I haven't visited but I might well one day as one of mine was killed in St Laurent-Blagny and I would really like to have a wander around on foot. When you say right now Sly does that mean you took the photo today (14/12/2021 - am)? If so I'm impressed - HAGAPO goes real time... Pete. P.S. Joyeux Noel Sly. Thanks for all the interesting photos.

Sly Posted 14 December , 2021 Share Posted 14 December , 2021 Pete, I did take the photo this morning, i went for a run along the Scarpe . I have spotted a bunker nearby and i am sure there are more things to be found. Sly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverforget Posted 14 December , 2021 Share Posted 14 December , 2021 How about this one? Not one that I took I hasten to add, and not on the Western Front, but I thought the regulars on the thread might like to see it, as I found it quite atmospheric.

Marilyne Posted 19 December , 2021 Share Posted 19 December , 2021 Hi all, Sorry for being absent now and then... when the EU takes over your agenda... @Michelle Young, is that in the Vosges??? @neverforget, I was going to say the same for yours, but as you said "not the Western front" ...

M. Hi Marilyne. Mine is in Poland. It is called Lidzbark Warminski CWGC cemetery. It provides an intimate setting where 39 Commonwealth service personnel who died in captivity during the First World War are commemorated. They came from various regiments. https://www.cwgc.org/visit-us/find-cemeteries-memorials/cemetery-details/5001703/lidzbark warminski war cemetery/ Edited 19 December , 2021 by neverforget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd never checked but Peckham is closer to the cemetery than Spanbroekmolen crater, 230ish meters to 400. Every day is a skool day. Pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
