The 16th Battalion (Canadian Scottish) at Fleurbaix on March 19, 1915

I’d like to wish all my readers and followers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Please take a moment to count your blessings and to spare a thought for our grandparents and great-grandparents who may have spent more than one Christmas in a snow covered trench not unlike the one pictured above. I look forward to sharing more photos and stories with you in 2015. Cheers!
