The final day in our series of one-day Western Front battlefield visits takes us to the line between Armentieres and Arras, dubbed the nursery trenches. On this day we visit sites connected with the 1915 battles of Aubers Ridge, Festubert, and Neuve Chapelle, where the Indian Army gave a magnificent account of itself, and the 1917 Battle of Arras. We see where Adolf Hitler served and the bunker he is reputed to have used as a billet. Australians will be touched at seeing the 'Cobbers' Memorial in Fromelles. An archaeological investigation during 2009 exhumed many soldiers remains from mass graves, and these bodies will be re-interred during 2010 in the new cemetery that is being constructed opposite the exhumation site by Pheasant Wood . We cross the Loos battlefield, site of the disastrous battle of 1915. For Canadians, Vimy Ridge is undoubtedly the highlight, where we take a trench tour and spend time at the massive and imposing Vimy memorial. We also see sites in and around the pretty city of Arras connected with the huge battle of 1917. If time, we see the French National memorial at Notre Dame de Lorette before returning to our Lille departure point.
