| 4 |  | LIJSSENTHOEK MILITARY CEMETERY a photo taken by Alasdair Mackie in September 2006. CHARLES HUDSON KILLED IN WW1 JUNE 11TH 1916 IS BURIED HERE. A MEMORY BY ALASDAIR Here is a nice panorama of Lijensthoek (well, you know where I mean) - I took this last September 2006 and you can see headstones disappearing into the distance. This cemetery (you may know) is near Poperinghe ('Pop' to the Tommies) - and is near where the main casualty clearing stations were. So many soldiers injured around Ieper (Ypres) would have been brought to this central point, then those who didn't make it were buried here. Awe-inspiring place. So many men, so many families affected........ Alasdair -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
