"Harry's Flanders" Battlefield Tour



A fantastic, emotional journey. Below is slideshow of some of the photographs from Day 1. Click on the image for access to the full set of albums for the trip. You'll need to unblock "pop-ups" to get to the albums. When the album "Day 1" loads click on "View Album", then "Harry's Public Gallery" to access "Day 2", "Day 3" and other Harry pictures. There are several hundred photographs and so it may take a day or two to caption each one. Many thanks to David McGovern who has contributed a huge proportion of the photographs.

I ahve been following this blog for several months now. The pictures you have made available so far are so wonderful and evoke such an emotional response. I was born and raised in England during WWII and have many memories from that. Please keep up the good work - I certainly hope that Harry makes at back from the Great War OK.

Anyone interested in more information of the Great War should visit http://www.greatwar.nl/ - very informative!

This is a fantastic site. My wife's father served in WWI, and his health was damaged to the extent that he passed away when she was just 12 years old. She did not have the benefit of a normal father/daughter relationship because even though he did survive the war, he was in poor health for those 12 years, caused by this dreadful war. Your site has been marvelous for her because it gives her a little insight into what Harry endured, and therefore, what her own father must have gone through as well. We hope Harry makes it to the end.
