I looked that up and that was probably another part of the many battles around this town which was leveled during that war. It was interesting to look at the dates on the buildings and hear the story about how the town was rebuilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely correct Les, Ypres was sort of an after thought on our way to Amsterdam I'm so glad we stayed overnight there. I stumbled across a group of British Sea Cadets who were there to lay wreaths at the Last Post in Mennen Gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
