Beschreibung: German transport retreats before the advancing Belgians. The map shows the Belgian advance 17th-31st October. Scenes of liberation in Ostend, with cheering crowds. Belgian transport moves through Handzaeme. Troops liberate Roulers. More celebrations in Ostend. The arrival of Belgian troops in Bruges, and in Thielt. The maps show the advance up to the Armistice, and the Belgian occupation of part of Germany under its terms. The state entry of the King and Queen of Belgium into Brussels on 22nd November, with accompanying troops. They halt, on horseback, to pose for photographs. With them are the Duke of Brabant and Princess Marie-José. The film ends with a reminder of the cost: three soldiers pause near the front to salute a dead soldier on a stretcher who is carried past. The soldier who went off to war in the first episode (acted sequence - see IWM 1050) returns home to his mother in her cottage. Sadly, he describes to a neighbour how his friend, the man's son, was killed in the war. The man goes off, leaving the soldier and his mother together.
Belgian film of their own forces in the Advance to Victory and the first days of the Armistice, Western Front, October-November 1918.
