In The Autumn Of 1917, After Years Of Stalemate At Ypres, The British And French Armies Launched A Massive Offensive To Take Passchendaele Ridge. Following An Intensive Bombardment, The Allies Began Their Attack, But The Low Ground Between The Lines Had Been Churned Into A Quagmire, And The Attack Was Literally Bogged Down. All Surprise Had Been Lost, And The German Defence In Depth Was Well Organised.
