The Third Ypres Campaign (Passchendaele) of 1917 is famously associated with the treacherous mud that plagued the British Army. However, for the Australian First and Second Divisions, their experience in the Battle of Menin Road was defined by a successful and strategic attack. This battle, part of the larger Third Ypres Campaign, aimed to capture the Gheluvelt Plateau and protect the British Army's right flank. Despite previous failures, the Australian infantry, supported by artillery and air power, exceeded expectations and effectively secured their objectives. This battle serves as a prime example of well-prepared and well-supported infantry operations. However, it also highlights the limitations of this approach in winning the war on the Western Front.
