Commonwealth War Graves Bulskamp

The British Expeditionary Force was involved in the later stages of the defence of Belgium following the German invasion in May 1940 and suffered many casualties in covering the withdrawal to Dunkirk.

Bulskamp Churchyard contains 30 Commonwealth burials of the Second World War, four of them unidentified. The graves were moved into the churchyard by the local authorities in September and October 1940 from their original locations on the battlefields between the Bergues canal and Ringslot waterway.
