"What's New" at Kaiserscross.com

[Chris Boonzaier]

Today an article, a rather dramatic one, was added about the machine Gunners in no mans land facing von Einems attackers in the last German offensive in the Champagne. An Iron Cross and a Croix de Guerre for the action.

I have found numerous "Ravine of Death!" references to Verdun.

One map has it for the Albain Schlucht, but I have informed this is not the right one.

Either way... the Albain Schlucht was "The ravine of death" for many soldiers.

I would like to share a write up about a brave Pionier who risked his life in one of Verdun's ravines of death, to save a Comrade.
