We travelled to Lochnagar Crater which was detontaed at 7.28 on the 1st of July 1916, the start of the Battle of the Somme. Kailyn used the backdrop of Sausage Valley to recount the story of three brothers and their stories in WW1. Henry Elliot was buried in the vicinity of Sausage Valley but his grave was subsequently destroyed. John Elloit was wounded at Pozieres and later died. Allan survived the war and Kailyn had an amazing picture of him in the courtyard of Versailles Palace which we had visited a few days ago.
