Henri Souchez was born in Milhaud, a suburb of Nîmes in southern France on 8 June 1920.
The Souchez family lived a quiet life until 1940, when Henri, then a clerk at a haberdashery, was conscripted to serve in the French Army.
The 'broad strokes' on Souchez are that he's not well-liked by the other NCOs, he keeps his men well-supplied, and he's not a particularly good leader on the battlefield.

 Histoire Antar/FR/Introduction
So it was with the bore-hole in the middle of the Greenland continental glacier in which the Belgian glaciologist Roland Souchez took part in the context of the European GRIP programme (Greenland Ice-Core Project).
"Although we know", writes Roland Souchez (2), "that major climatic changes can occur during the cold periods of the glacial-interglacial cycle, the oscillations observed during a warm period are new." At the time of the report in the International Weekly Journal of Science, Nature (July 1993), there was consternation.
Firstly, because the article was signed by 40 world-renowned glaciologists including Claude Lorius, Willy Dansgaard and Hans Oeschger, all three winners of the 1996 Tyler Prize (the Tyler Prize For Environmental Achievement); there was therefore no doubt as to the seriousness of the information.

Briefly, the Germans overran this area in October 1914 and captured two prominent areas of high ground, Vimy Ridge and the Souchez Ridge.
On this site on top of the Souchez Ridge are buried nearly 40,000 French troops, about half in marked graves, and about half in mass grave pits (ossuaires).
Before entering the site there was a viewing area overlooking Vimy Ridge 2 miles to the left on the other side of the motorway and the valley between.

Within half an hour it was pouring with rain and the Poilus became bogged down in the mud which had already been partially created by the German defences, in Souchez, re-routing the river system.
From the heights of Notre Dame de Lorette, General Maistre's 21st Corps pushed down into the outskirts of Souchez Village whilst the 33rd Corps had taken the fortress of Château de Carleul and Souchez village cemetery.
Both Allied commanders wanted to push on with what they had gained but the moment had been lost at Loos and German counter attacks were threatening to recuperate all of their lost territory.

 Overview - Vimy
By the end of 1914 the Germans were in control of Souchez and Neuville-St. Vaast, and the eastern part of Notre-Dame de Lorette Ridge and the whole of Vimy Ridge.
After more than a month of bloody fighting that had cost them more than 100,000 casualties, the French reclaimed Notre-Dame de Lorette Ridge, the villages of Souchez, Albain-St. Nazaire and Carency to the south, Neuville-St. Vaast and the Labyrinth (a maze of German trenches south of Neuville-St. Vaast).
As part of a larger offensive, the British and French renewed the attack in September 1915.

 CASES
To the south, the French Armies launched large offensives in Champagne and in the Souchez Valley.
The site chosen for the attack was unsuitable, being very flat, lacking cover yet constantly under surveillance from German observation posts dug into the slag-heaps of waste from the many coal-mines.
However it was politically convenient as being just a few miles north of the Souchez Valley and so close to the boundary between the French and British Armies.

 Nicholson Arras
The high ground between the Scarpe and the smaller Souchez River, of which the Ridge was the dominant feature, formed a nine mile barrier across the western edge of the Douai plain.
In the words of one Canadian observer, from the Lorette spur, north of the Souchez, "more of the war could be seen than from any other place in France".
Together with the Lorette spur, north of the Souchez, the Ridge had fallen to the Germans in October 1914, giving them a secure hold on the industrial area of Lille and the Lens coalfields.

Poterloo comes from Souchez, and now that the Chasseurs have at last retaken it, he wants to see again the village where he lived happily in the days when he was only a man.
He was so pernickety that you could see him sweeping the grass in his garden with a horsehair brush, or kneeling on his lawn and trimming the turf with a pair of scissors.
