jacks back Posted 6 November , 2023 Share Posted 6 November , 2023 I doubt anyone's going to return on this topic by now but it did come up on google so for others who find it that way here's some more. Bevloon military camp as it was during The Great War from a soldier's view who is living and training there. Feldposts from Bevloon "of" Bevloon.

It looks quite large. Howard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cnock Posted 6 November , 2023 Author Share Posted 6 November , 2023 (edited) Yes, this was a large camp, Also used by the Germans in WW1 and WW2 regards, Cnock Edited 6 November , 2023 by Cnock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacks back Posted 9 November , 2023 Share Posted 9 November , 2023 Totally destroyed in WW2 so the camp today has none of the original buildings. It's used by the Belgium military as a training camp still apparently although not the same, just roughly the same area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
