Brothers in arms (Frères d’armes). 🇫🇷 & 🇧🇪 soldier depicted on the memorial at the cimetière militaire de Marchovelette #FWW #WW1 #premièreguerre
Head & shoulders of French and Belgian soldier at the military cemetery at Marchovelette. Note the regiment - 45eRI. A composite regiment (2bns from 45eRI & 1 from 148eRI) sent to assist the Belgian 4eDI at Namur in August 1914. Sent from Mangin’s 8eBI, then attached to d’Esperey’s 1eCA, part of Lanrezac’s 5e armée. Under the immediate command of the OC 45eRI but under Belgian operational command: one of, if not the first case of entente forces operating under command of another country.

Isn’t it ironic? Here’s a farm outbuilding that bears the scars of the First World War but which has now fallen to ruin in the years since. Tracy-le-Val (60). At the junction of Rue du Cimetière Militaire and the D16. #1GM #fwwhist #WW1 #premiereguerre
A farm outbuilding in Tracy-le-Val with walls clearly damaged by shell fire that’s now fallen to ruin.
