http://www.firstworldwar.com/index.htm

Stumbled across this website whilst looking for WW1 song lyrics ...thought it might be of interest with regard to ancestors who served in the 'War to end all wars'.

It has diaries and letters, details of the battles, photographs of the battlefields then and now , memorials ....

For example:

16th Irish Division Memorial, Wytschaete (Ypres Salient)
18th Div Memorial, Clapham Junction (Ypres Salient)
18th Div Memorial, Thiepval (Somme)

This is an incredible web site in its scope from the brief look I have had thus far.
