Thanks.
I have all those things and more in Belgium.
Plan to go to Langemark, actually the largest cemetary in Belgium; most think Tyne Cot. Langemark has the German cemetary. I assume I am not alone in that I had family on both sides at Ieper.
Also near to Diksmuide is the ijzertoren, the museum / monument to all the Flemish war dead. Often lost is that the Belgians fought the entire war.
I am pressed for time on the France portion. After Vimy, I plan to visit La Targette. Time permitting, I would sure like to get to Beaumont Hamel and Courcelette. Due to other committments, I have only one day to spend at Vimy / France.
