"There was not a sign of life of any sort.
Not a tree, save for a few dead stumps which looked strange in the moonlight.
Not a bird, not even a rat or a blade of grass.
Nature was as dead as those Canadians whose bodies remained where they
had fallen the previous autumn.
Death was written large everywhere."
- Private R.A. Colwell, Passchendaele, January 1918
