The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )
1st July 1916
Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings

Hi Paul and Ade
Don't know if they have this book in English (it's in two parts). But if they do I recommend these highly...
"Vlamingen aan het oostfront - Flemings at the eastern front"

I agree that it is a hard read, it aint a novel but rather a military history book portraying the day to day events of the Flemish legion...

So it is , Nick!
When I was young, I did some voluntary work for people of the Sint Maartens Fonds. Sad I never wrote down what I was told by those guy's. Memory began's to fade.
So you should be, it's a striking work. Coloured woodcut?
