At 7:28am on 1 July 1916, the 7 day British bombardment of German lines on the Somme reached its final deafening climax. Some 70,000 British soldiers made their final preparations as huge British mines were blown under some of the strongest German positions. At 7:30am, the men began their advance and the 141 days of the Somme Offensive began.
