Bl脿r Festubert a dh'fhag l脿rach mhaireannach air an Eilean Sgitheanach gu h-脿raid. The Battle of Festubert, which was so keenly felt in the Highlands but particularly in Skye.
Bha buidheann de dh'ochd air fhichead Sgitheanach air falbh dhan Chogadh c貌mhla agus bha iad air a bhith aig Bl脿r Neuve Chapelle sa Mh脿irt. Air an aona latha deug den Ch猫itean chaidh an gluasad gu Festubert is ionnsaigh mh貌r 霉r dol ga thoirt air na Gearmailtich. Ach nuair a chaidh na saighdearan air adhart cha b' fhada gus na dh'fhoghlam iad gu robh trainnsichean nan Gearmailteach cha mh貌r cho sl脿n 's a bha iad bho th霉s. Co-dhi霉 rinneadh tomhais de dh'adhartas an toiseach is b' fheudar do na Gearmailtich tarraing air ais beagan an siud 's an seo.
Aig leth-uair an d猫idh sia feasgar, air an t-seachdamh latha deug, th脿inig buidheann Phort R矛gh agus buidheann 脿 Ceann a' Ghiuthsaich c貌mhla air a' l脿imh chl矛. Air an l脿imh dheis bha d脿 chompanaidh de shaighdearan 脿 Bedford. Uair a th矛de an d猫idh sin th脿inig an t-貌rdan "Charge!"
Cluinnidh sinn bho Ghilleasbuig MacDh貌mhnaill mun sgrios a chaidh a dh猫anamh, oir mus t脿inig Bl脿r Festubert gu cr矛ch air an t-seachdamh latha fichead dhen mh矛os bha mu 16,000 saighdear Breatannach marbh no air an le貌n is cha robh iad ach air mu chilemeatair de thalamh a bhuannachd. Bha d脿 mh矛le gu leth Can猫idianach marbh no air an le貌n.
