The Irish Guards in the Great War Part 2Legacy of Great Minds 480
조셉 러디어드 키플링Part 2 continues with the harrowing Battle of Loos, where the Guards faced fierce German defenses and suffered heavy losses. Operations at the Hohenzollern Trenches and around Laventie tested their endurance through bitter winter months. In 1916, the battalion moved to the Somme, playing a crucial role in the September offensives. The assaults on September 15 and 25 saw moments of both heroism and tragedy. By 1917, they were engaged at Boesinghe and along the Broembeek during the Third Ypres campaign. These battles featured brutal mud, shellfire, and minimal gains. The year closed with a strategic return to Cambrai and intense action at Gouzeaucourt.
