Hello, 

I am looking for information on the battle of loos. Specifically how did the trenches end up where they were? From Hohenzollern down to loos itself.

Any pointers?

thanks,

paul

good evening,

the German position has not moved west of Auchy since October 1914.
the Germans gave ground (Vermelles) during the winter of 1914 in the face of the French attack on this town by withdrawing into the plain of Loos in Auchy.

Hi michel

thanks for the info. I’ve seen postcards dated to 1914 showing a lot of damage. Do you know who was involved?
