    On July 31, 1917, the Third Battle of Ypres begins. More than 4.2 million shells are thrown at the German positions. The shelling is churning up the landscape and destroying the drainage system. Bunkers, the target of the shelling, remain standing. The rainwater can't go anywhere. A few summer downpours turn the operating site into a swamp.
