PASSCHENDAELE, 6 November 1917 They called it a battlefield, but it was more swamp than soil, more grave than ground. Today marks 108 years since the ruined village of Passchendaele was captured, the end of one of the bloodiest campaigns of the Great War. For the Australians, the cost was unimaginable. 38,000 casualties in eight weeks. Mud so deep it swallowed men, horses, even tanks. They weren’t defeated, only spent. Exhausted beyond endurance, but never broken. From Menin Road to Polygon Wood

Today, Tyne Cot holds nearly 12,000 graves — men who fell in the terrible fighting for Ypres and Passchendaele.
