Hi,

Has anyone precise data on the location of the following divisions in the Ypres region during 1918 ?

1 Landwehr Division - surroundings St. Julien-Hooghe
19 Reserve Division - surroundings Ieper
20 Division - east of Langemark
38 Landwehr Division - south of Ramskapelle came as replacements for the 19e Reserve Division
83 Division - sector north of Ieper
236 Division - Passendale and surroundings

As you can see, the information I have for the moment is a bit vague...

Thanks and best from Johan
