The success of the Battle of Courcelette on 15 September 1916 had the Canadian Corps holding the front line from the village of Courceltte to a German stronghold called Monquet Farm. The Germans on the Thiepval Ridge held the high ground and could see over the rear areas as far as Albert, and the Canadians were ordered to help push them off the Ridge. Come join us as we visit the actions from 26 - 28 September 1916 as the Canadians attack.
