For the last three years, we've been remembering the events of a hundred years ago during the dark days of World War 1. This July, the hundredth anniversary of the Battle of Passchendaele will be marked with a ceremony near Ypres in Belgium. Amongst the 350,000 soldiers killed in battle - 600 of them were from Leicestershire. Ben Jackson is in Ypres this week, and this morning he's been visiting the memorial of Francis Nathaniel Tarr.
