Hill 70, Loos-en-Gohelle, France

This was rather interesting. Doug had pinpointed the area where John's specific battalion fought in the Battle of Hill 70. Part of it was woods and part was farmers field. We decided we would go out into the field to look for relics from this battle to go with the Vimy relics. We saw someone else out there as well and figured they doing the same thing. It turns out it was the farmer and he finds things all the time. I am not even going to tell you what he offered us. Needless to say we refused as we are certain it's a big no no on a plane.
After our scavenger hunt, where we had luck again, we headed to a Subway which is part of a shopping complex now located on the same land John was fighting for. It is right on what was the German lines.Okumaya devam et
