EACH year the King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry Regimental Association Battlefield Research Section organise a pilgrimage to the battle areas of the First World War.
In August, and then again in September, we plan to visit the battlefield areas of France and Flanders, taking in the Somme and the Ypres Battles, also Vimy Ridge, Loos, Arras and Serre.
The trip specialises in visiting specific cemeteries or memorials on request. An experienced guide will accompany the trip to commentate on specific battles. Wherever possible, we also operate a grave tracing and photography service for those unable to travel.
We welcome all enquiries.
Anyone interested and requiring further information should contact me at the address below, and we ask for a medium-sized sae for postal replies.
