Attacking in a southerly direction, Capt Kennedy was shot while leading 'B' Company in the Battle of Aubers Ridge. He and his men had got well beyond the German line which ran roughly east-west where the preserved bunkers are today. His mother later wrote "He had crossed the road and was on the Fromelles side of it when he was shot by a sniper. His men tried to carry him back but he was terribly wounded and after they had carried him back across the road he told them to put him down..." Capt P A Kennedy, 2/Rifle Brigade Killed in action 9 May 1915. No known grave. Remembered on the Ploegsteert Memorial.

The canal is approximately 39 kilometers long and runs through the departments of Pas-de-Calais and the Northern Department. The Canal d'Aire also runs through the municipalities of Hantay, Salomé and Bauvin.

You can cycle in a relaxed manner along the banks of the Canal D'Aire between La Bassée and Salomé. There is hardly anything better on a beautiful summer day.

Calvary in memory of Captain Paul Adrian Kennedy, killed while leading his company during the offensive at the Battle of Aubers, on May 9, 1915. That day alone, 12,000 soldiers fell. This ordeal was erected by the mother of the captain who lost 3 of her sons during the war. With the help of her 4th son, also a soldier but surviving the conflict, she set out to find the graves of her 3 children. This was done for 2 of them (identified in cemeteries in Villers-Bretonneux and Cateau-Cambrésis), but they did not find a grave for Paul. She then had this ordeal erected in her memory during a ceremony in 1921, and visited it frequently until her death in 1939. The 4th son took over the maintenance and preservation of the memorial, which, since her death in 1965, and now maintained by the municipality of Fromelles.
