I think I'll have to put that on my bucket list too. I've visited a number of battlefield sites in the UK, all of course much older than the 20th Century, and I'm not sure about Bosworth any more because there's some dispute about the battle site.
Northern France encompasses battles going back centuries and I can't deny I'd dearly like to wander around and visit them, old and new. The number of war graves of many nationalities there would be a very sobering experience.
I've only ever visited Arnhem in Europe near to where I have an Uncle I never met buried.
