  • The Night Operation on the Passchendaele Ridge, 2Nd December 1917
    Centre for First World War Studies A Moonlight Massacre: The Night Operation on the Passchendaele Ridge, 2nd December 1917 by Michael Stephen LoCicero Thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of History and Cultures College of Arts & Law June 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract The Third Battle of Ypres was officially terminated by Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig with the opening of the Battle of Cambrai on 20 November 1917. Nevertheless, a comparatively unknown set-piece attack – the only large-scale night operation carried out on the Flanders front during the campaign – was launched twelve days later on 2 December. This thesis, a necessary corrective to published campaign narratives of what has become popularly known as „Passchendaele‟, examines the course of events from the mid-November decision to sanction further offensive activity in the vicinity of Passchendaele village to the barren operational outcome that forced British GHQ to halt the attack within ten hours of Zero. A litany of unfortunate decisions and circumstances contributed to the profitless result.

The survey is completed on a voluntary basis. Face-to-face interviews are also performed once in a while in touristic areas of Brussels, at random. Therefore, the survey does not at all pretend to be “scientific” or to be a true reflection of what all visitors think or feel about our destination. Nevertheless, we consider it is a useful tool for our future visitors, Brussels tourism professionals and public authorities. Because your appreciation and comments help us to create a world of real hospitality, your participation in this questionnaire is very important to us. Thank you for your valuable input!

  • A Day in the Salient with Bernard Comyn by Ian Chambers, August 2007
    A Day in the Salient with Bernard Comyn by Ian Chambers, August 2007 Bernard is a friend of Harry Canvin, and knowing that I was spending a few days in the Salient, Harry arranged for Gary and me to spend a day with him. Bernard, (pictured here with my son Gary) is, I would guess, in his early seventies and was born in Zillebeke, where he still lives. He is a walking encyclopaedia on the war in the Salient and once you have spent a little time with him it soon becomes clear that he gets great enjoyment from passing that knowledge on. Our first stop was Hill 60, which is on the outskirts of Zillebeke. This mound, 60 metres high, was of great importance bearing in mind the general low lying nature of most of the area. It was held by the Germans until 7 June 1917 when a series of mines was detonated over the Messines Ridge area to signal the start of what became known as the Battle of Messines. The tunnel to Hill 60 was 1,380 feet long and was officially known as The Berlin Sap, just before it reached Hill 60 the tunnel branched off to run under another German position known as The Caterpillar which was a second "hill" formed from the spoil from the railway cutting. In total 123,500 pounds of ammonal and guncotton was placed under the two hills and when both mines exploded as planned, this allowed British troops to storm and capture them and they remained in British hands until the German advance of 1918.
