The Salient Ypres became very much associated with the Commonwealth forces who were in the area nonstop from October 1914 until the end of the war. By the time the last shells fell on Ypres in October 1918, the Salient had claimed 185,000 Commonwealth lives.

This tour to the Belgian Flanders Battlefield and Ypres Salient will be a very memorable and emotionally charged day to honor those who sacrificed their lives for the freedom of others.
