Tyne Cot cemetery, WW1
Soon 2018 comes to an end and with it the many commemorations of the 100th anniversary of the end of the Great War (1914-1918). With its 11,956 graves, Tyne Cott is one of the largest Commonwealth cemeteries in the world and it is a silent witness to the bloody Battle of Passchendaele (Belgium). The wall behind the cemetery contains the names of 34,984 soldiers with no known grave. During the British offensive of 1917, almost 500,000 victims fell in 100 days for a territorial gain of only eight kilometres.
Tyne Cot Commonwealth War Graves Cemetery and Memorial to the Missing is a Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) burial ground for the dead of the First World War in the Ypres Salient on the Western Front. The cemetery grounds were assigned to the United Kingdom in perpetuity by King Albert I of Belgium in recognition of the sacrifices made by the British Empire in the defence and liberation of Belgium during the war. It is the largest cemetery for Commonwealth forces in the world, for any war. The cemetery and its surrounding memorial are located outside of Passendale, near Zonnebeke in Belgium. The name "Tyne Cot" is said to come from the Northumberland Fusiliers seeing a resemblance between the German concrete pill boxes, which still stand in the middle of the cemetery, and typical Tyneside workers' cottages – Tyne Cots.
