Ten WWI Battlefield Sites to See

As we approach the anniversary of the opening military actions in World War I, this summer has seen a number of interesting news stories and new websites created to honor the memory of the war.  In the interest of those blog readers who may not see these stories, I am going to post some of the links here for your reference.  These types of news items will be tagged with the label "news" and/or "website" so that then can be easily sorted and searched later as well.

Today's post is from the website Heritage Daily, and they have posted a list and description of ten World War I battlefields that are a "must see."  For those of us who may not be able to travel to Europe, they also provide some excellent photos and descriptions.  The link to the website can be found below, along with an image from their list.
