EACH year the Kings Own Yorkshire Light Infantry Regimental Association Battlefield Research Section organises pilgrimages to the battle areas of the First World War.

In August, and again in September next year, we plan to visit the Battlefields of the Somme and the Ypres Salient, Vimy Ridge, Arras and Loos.

The trips specialise in visiting specific cemeteries or memorials on request, and an experienced guide will accompany us, to commentate on the various battles and events. The trips are open to anyone who might be interested, and we welcome enquiries.
