Mon histoire
From the 5th to the 7th of October 1917 the 12th Battalion Australian Infantry took over the frontline near Molenaarelsthoek, just in front of Celtic Wood. The task of holding the line proved to be very expensive and the Battalion suffered many casualties from shell-fire. James must have been one of them.
