British Cemetery

Highlight • Monument

A poignant story from Philosophe British Cemetery concerns Private Reginald Albert Twyford of the East Surrey Regiment. He died on 8 August 1916, at the young age of 15. His gravestone bears the inscription: "No King Or Saint Hath Tomb So Proud As He Whose Flag Becomes His Shroud," reflecting the deep honour and respect accorded even to the youngest soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Ancien Cavalier

Highlight • Trail

Very nice dirt road. It must be well rolling in the summer.
Still quite a bit from end to May.
