    Yes worth doing. The museum in Ypres is very impressive and relatively new. Hill 62 though is chillingly bleak and gives you a real taste. Just the piles of old boots etc says something. It all moved me as much as the cemeteries and memorials.

    I've seen the Australian film
    Beneath hill 60.
    Well worth a, watch. True story.
    The DVD is widely available on E Bay.
    for next to nothing
