Canada in WW1: The Battle Of The St. Eloi Craters - a podcast by Craig Baird

One year after Canada first started seeing action in the First World War, we come to the terrible Battle of the St. Eloi Craters. 

It was at this battle, begun with an explosion heard all the way in England, where over 1,300 Canadians would lose their lives and no ground would be gained.

It is a story of mud, grime and fetid pools filled with pieces of humans.
