Known as New Zealand's darkest hour. Our greatest military disaster where 846 Kiwis were killed on a muddy sliver of sloping land above a small village in Flanders, Belgium, on just one day. The Battle of Passchendaele, and the devasting loss that occured on the 12th October 1917, has come to embody the senseless, industrialised slaughter of World War I.
