.

031) THE YPRES SALIENT (JUNE-JULY 1917) It was about this time we moved to Cassel.

Nothing very interesting in the journey till one comes to Arques and St.Omer (at one time Lord French's G.H.Q.).

The road from Arques to the station at the foot of Cassel Hill was always lined on each side by lorries, guns, pontoons and all manner of war material.

A gloomy road, thick with mud for the most part, if not dust.
