#behindthescenes mapping the Commonwealth War Graves Commission Sittard War Cemetery, Netherlands 🇳🇱 🗓️ At Sittard War Cemetery, the burials are (apart from a few dating from November 1944) almost all from the months of January and February 1945. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 The men buried here belong mostly to the Scottish regiments of the 52nd (Lowland) Division, engaged in the battle in this vicinity from 18th to 24th January 1945. 📌 These regiments were responsible for the clearing of a salient west of the River Roer which was still held by the Germans.
