Hooge Crater Cemetery

Another day, another cemetery … Today I visited Hooge Crater Cemetery, 4 kilometres east of Ypres town centre. 5,892 soldiers are either buried or commemorated in the cemetery, some 60% of which are unknown. It was started during the Third Battle of Ypres in 1917 by the British 7th Division's Burial Officer and extended after the war.
