A postcard of sentry duty on the floodplain of the Yser Canal. In October 1914, the Belgian Army fell back to a position along the Yser River, and struggled to hold the line in a battle that began on October 16. Canals and dykes kept the River and the North Sea from the low-lying countryside. Struggling to hold their position, the Belgians opened the floodgates of the Yser on October 28, flooding the plain, stopping the German advance, and holding the Channel coast.
