    Folks,

    I will be in the Albert, Bapaume and Peronne area of Picardie in the not too distant future and wonder is there any WW2 relates sites to visit??

    Owen,
    This is impressive!
    I have had a look on GE and think I have found it.

    On looking at the Cemetery you can go up onto the D6 to drive towards Peronne.
    Looking at Bois de Buire is this Memorial on the left side of the lane into this Wood?

    That's sounds about right, was 6 years ago but I'm sure that's it .
    Shame Streetview not on that bit.

    edit: yup you got it.
