The Battle for Poelcappelle on the 9th October 1917, was a shambles because of inadequate artillery, appalling weather and breakdowns in communication. British casualties were very high and remained high for the rest of that month, the third worst month in terms of killed and wounded throughout the whole war, official estimates put British casualties at 110,000 for October alone. In Flanders fields the poppies blow. Between the crosses, row on row. That mark our place; and in the sky. The larks, still bravely singing fly. Scarce heard amid the guns below. John mc Crae.
