    You'll be surprised about the age of many of the soldiers there.

    Hi All,

    I've been to Ysselstein too, I believe this cemetery to be the second biggest cemetery outside of Germany.. You will note the Grey Crosses but I've also been to a placed called Bocholt just on the Dutch German border and the headstone's look nothing like that, they use both side for a start and are a lot smaller..
