In anticipation John Rats Alley just happens to be the title of Peter Chasseaud's book of trench names. "Rats Alley, British Trench Names of the Western Front,1914-1918". ISBN: 186227276X I have not seen a copy but perhaps it may help. Howard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
