Battlefield tour in May 2012 ftg the hauntingly beautiful Delville (Devil's) Wood, Albert, Redan Ridge, Guillemont, Thiepval, Hawthorne mine crater, the Australian war memorial, Pozieres, Bethune and many points in between. I've never been a warhead but visited the area for research retracing the Footballers Battalion's movements, and found it all incredibly moving. In all its spring glory it was hard to believe this area could have witnessed so much horror. Many thanks to the French people and C'wealth war graves commission for keeping the memorials in such pristine condition.
