The 'Hickman monument' in Retranchement (municipality of Sluis) was erected in memory of Sergeant J.L. Hickman and his fellow comrades who were killed in October 1944 during the assembly of the construction of a Bailey bridge.
A Bailey bridge is a construction that was designed in England in 1942. It is a construction kit of steel, rectangular elements that are connected by means of steel pins. Such an emergency bridge could be assembled very quickly and was intended to transport army equipment and troops.
