In 1914 the British army was retreating from the Germans near the city of Mons, Belgium. WWI was beginning to blaze, and the soldiers apparently thought if they could just find a place to make a stand they might be able to change their fortunes. That place wasn’t found – but more Germans were.
It appeared all was lost until – according to legend – the heavens opened and some sort of apparition swooped in to aid the side of good.
This is the story of the Angels of Mons.
