On today’s @TheWFA #Dispatches podcast, @NicholasMilton about his recent book on the role of birds in the Great War. Published by @penswordbooks
#OTD in 2016, I sat in these trenches at Beaumont-Hamel at 05.14 & took this photo: just as the first light of dawn touched the horizon with a splash of orange and the Skylarks rose high above the fields: a perfect moment along those crisscross paths of the Great War.
It was an honour to spend part of this #MemorialDay weekend with Ray Hobbs, a B-17 pilot in the 95th BG, at the airfield he flew from in Suffolk. Here’s Ray in the Red Feather Club, wearing his original flight hat, with the illustration I painted for him. #ww2

Berger’s All Quiet on the Western Front is one the best ever films about the futility of war. Compelling portrayal of a teenage German soldier by Felix Kammerer. Worth watching despite the bloody grime.
