yes mate - all in a supporting line as well, The battle of messines was the largest mining activity during the whole war and took them 2 years to finish and the allies just about blew the ridge of the face of the earth. It was one of the largest non nuclear explosions of all time as 19 mines went up one after the other, 4 are still waiting to go off!!! - However what makes the NZ attack so good is in their area there were no mines that went off so they had to rely on there Esprit du corps to capture the pill boxes.
