World War I Memorials

Here's yet another article from Smithsonian Magazine about memorials in the various nations involved in World War I. http://www.smithsonianmag.com/travel/WWI-cemeteries-around-world-180963437/ It's not a comprehensive list, however. I noted that they missed the Indian Memorial at Neuve Chapelle, but I would guess there are many others not included.

Thank you for the links, Marie.
I was a bit annoyed with the Smithsonian article for omitting it. After tagging several diaries from those Indian units that fought there, I feel they need to be acknowledged, too.
