Another 10 pictures added to Bois-Carré Military Cemetery, Haisnes in France, courtesy of Werner Van Caneghem. There are now over 200, 1914-18 war casualties commemorated in this site. Of these, nearly a quarter are unidentified and the graves of 47, destroyed by shell fire, are now represented by special memorials. The irregular arrangement of the rows is due to the difficult conditions under which these burials were carried out.
