One for you Tom Tulloch-Marshall Gauche Wood cemetery. 48 burials, 5 of which unknown. Created by 21 Div burial officer on 6/7th October 1918. All named casualties 18/19/20th September, all unknowns 6th October. Same battalions. Notice a pattern? Unknown DoD's are burial dates?

Everyone...and I mean Everyone, should be made to watch this.

Yesterday with the cooperation of the landowners our lead archaeologist along with a magnificent team completed geophysics (non invasive scan) in the field between the craters and the Village of Beaumont Hamel with fascinating results. Our study of the entire area continues

Just a quick one, to say...I'VE DONE IT !!! 100K completed. More to follow.... Thank you, one and all ❤️

Talking about my grandfather Western Front Association Tyneside. A lovely, welcoming branch, but in need of support. Should the necessary support not materialise, this year could be their last. #wfa #remember

He survived: • 4 plane crashes • Losing an eye and a hand • And insulted Chairman Mao to his face Winston Churchill wrote the foreword for his autobiography. Here's the incredible story of the soldier who couldn't be killed:

This is so disappointing...😪 not the first unexplainable decision by IWM.

‘Gentlemen, I don’t know whether we are going to make history tomorrow, but at any rate we shall change geography.’ Gen Harrington CofS, 2 Army, on eve of the Battle of Messines. 108 years ago today. #remember

After nearly 3 years of fundraising, planning and work, I am really proud of what we have achieved at the Houston Wallace and 9 Brave memorials in Bazentin. Fantastic work by Western Front Services Terry Berry & Rick Smith🇺🇦 Thank you to everyone who donated. #cheshire #worcestshire

One for any Great War nerds out there who are into their prog rock. Roger Waters grandfather's grave. He was a sapper in 256 Tunnelling Company.

In the lead up to the ceremonies at the flagstaff in Beaumont Hamel & the Craters on 13th Nov, we will post some pictures from our extensive archive. The first being from the German Archives of Beaumont Hamel before much of the destruction. #wewillrememberthem #ww1 #somme

Today, a RE sketch showing 252nd Tunnelling Co’s progress of H3, the mine tunnel towards Hawthorn Ridge. You will notice the dog leg which is there because they hit a heavy belt of flint and had to divert course around it. You will also see the tunnel H3.1 to aid spoil removal.

Life in occupied Beaumont Hamel. Even time for a short back & sides!
