SITE OF MEMORY · THE GREAT WAR, 1914–1918

31 Jul-10 Nov 1917 — Third Ypres: three months in liquid mud for eight kilometers and a quarter-million casualties on each side. Men and mules drown in shell craters. It stands here as memory as much as strategy. Remember.

This is one scene of Chapter 8 — Breaking Points in The Great War, 1914–1918.
