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
Great site , been to a few places myself
was at sennelager (92) for an exercise , had to sleep out under the stars for 2 weeks - wonderfull times ! . Was told that a big underground bunker had been found underneath sennelager , full of equipment in the 70 s , never heard any more about it .
Also stopped off at paderborn & berlin
wasnt really into war relic collecting at that point , wish i was , could of picked loads of stuff up , started reading sven hassel books at that point as I was told he had been stationed there with the 27th panzer , still have the whole collection , read them all at least 20 times each . Had a great time with a great bunch of mates
