==Legacy== On 9 July 2000, through the initiative of "The Friends of the Green Howards Museum", General [[Richard Dannatt|The Lord Dannatt]], then Colonel of the regiment unveiled a memorial dedicated to Bell on the spot where he lost his life at Contalmaison, now known as Bell's Redoubt. The event was covered by television and every year since then a small service has been held there. In 2010, the tenth anniversary of the unveiling was celebrated and in 2016, at Bell's Redoubt, with a much improved memorial, there was scheduled to be a remembrance service on the hundredth anniversary of Bell's heroism.{{citation needed|date=March 2014}}.
