Centenary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge

On Friday I got two French FDCs.

This is one of them:


Centenary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge (issued 08-04-2017)
It is a joint issue with Canada.

The Battle of Vimy Ridge was fought in 1917 between the German Empire and the British Empire and is a part of the Battle of Arras. It was the first battle in which the four divisions of Canadian Expeditionary Force fought together. It ended with a victory of the British Empire.

Thank You very much William!
