No-Man's Land
No-Man's Land by @Thorvald (El Thorvaldo)

View from a German pillbox toward the Canadian front line, part of a preserved section of the original Vimy Ridge battlefield.

While natural regrowth has obscured line-of-sight, the opposing trenches are barely fifty metres apart—a ten-second jog if you're not dodging fire. Small wonder a bayonet charge more resembled a Medieval mêlée than its Napoleonic forbear.
