10 OCTOBER 2018: HOOGE CRATER CEMETERY DEDICATION

During a recent visit to the WW1 Battlefields on The Somme & Ypres Salient we fell into conversation with Mr Nicolas Previté.  He was in Ypres to attend a rededication ceremony for his great uncle Lieutenant John Gillis Butt RAMC at Hooge Cemetary.

We were invited and honoured to attend.
