SHADOWS OF WAR: Jewish graves at Fricourt German Military Cemetery

Wide Shot, Jewish graves at Fricourt German Military Cemetery.The German military cemetery is the resting place for 17,027 German First World War soldiers. They died on the Somme battlefields over the four years of the Great War, from late September 1914, when the German Second Army established a defensive front line in this sector, to the spring and summer Battles of the Somme in 1918. Approximately 1,000 of the soldiers lying here were killed during the early weeks of the war from late August to the late autumn of 1914, and during the trench warfare from that time through 1915 and up to June 1916.
