Once again, we see the complete destruction of the countryside in this comic. Many towns and villages were completely wiped off the map in the war. When the Canadians finally captured Passchendaele village in the Fall of 1917, the 'village' was nothing but some holes in the ground- the foundations and basements of the buildings that once stood there. The destruction was so great that some villages were never rebuilt.
