Tyne Cot Cemetery at Passendale (Belgium) on the battlefields where in 1917 one of the bloodiest battles of WWI took place.
With 11.956 white gravestones, the largest British war cemetery in the world.

Hello Mark,Thank You do not shrink to take up the sad events of European history.
The First World War was called the Great War, he should be the last war between Europeans. Meanwhile, we know how it actually ran.

It is a very sad sight and a sobering thought that so many oung men gave their lives so that we might have peace and freedom. It is heartwarming to see these graves so well cared for after all these years.Sue
