Battlefront - 6th November 1917 - The Fall of Passchendaele

This study pack looks at the closing stages of Haig's Flanders offensive.

Similar in format to "The First Day Of The Somme", this pack also contains aerial photographs from the Imperial War Museum, an RFC pilot's combat report, minutes from the Cabinet War Policy Committee and the service papers of a Canadian soldier from the National Archives of Canada.This pack not only examines events from the perspective of the infantry, but also looks at the significance of the vital role played by the artillery.

Were lessons learned from the Somme offensive? If so, were they applied in the events that led up to the fall of Passchendaele?
