Aurel Sercu Posted 4 September , 2003 Share Posted 4 September , 2003 Steve, Yes, we are. Though nothing big. Exploring the area at the end of the Bargiestraat east of the Ieper - IJzer Canal (Bargiestraat is the road where Yorkshire Trench is). More specifically in no man's land, where in July 1915 'International Trench' was. No important structural finds. But we did find (fragmentary) remains of 8 soldiers in the past month. Should you go there next Saturday 6/9, Patrick is the boss, but ask for André. He will take over from me. (I won't be present there that day, as tomorrow I'm off, on a 'well-deserved holiday'...) (Sorry if this reply comes late.) Aurel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
