There are two photos here, one from wartime of World War I and one taken fifty years later. "The Flanders' Fields/Flanders' fields are green again, instead of red with blood as they were 50 years ago. The little army of Belgium, invaded by the Germans, retreated to Flanders. It held on for our years, but half a million Allied soldiers died around Ypres./Top: A Belgian soldier stands amid front-line desolation at the River Yperlee near Ypres, in 1917./Bottom: Fifty years and a second war after World War I, Flanders' fields lie in quiet peace on the River Yperlee near Ypres."
