Description
2nd October 1919, a group of soldiers crossed these war shattered fields, in search of the dead. Over the next days, weeks and months, they uncovered more than 1000 of the fallen, one man for every single yard of ground.
But just why was this area so bloody and what had happened here during four years of fighting?
Join us in this video, as we do something truly unique, not by studying a single battle or campaign, but by zooming in and investigating what happened on a single patch of ground, across four years of war.
