Before leaving Arras, I paid my respects to Rosine and Bert Witton. A wreath and some currant jam from the shop at 25 Rue de Longchamp, the Comet Line HQ where Rosine lived in 1943-4. She made currant jam with her airmen and left 33 jars behind when the Germans raided her house.
Over the coming weeks you will more than likely just see one place being mentioned and pushed in Normandy on our news channels. The D-Day beaches and battlefields are bigger than just one place. The @CWGC have always remembered those who never came back. They have cared for and…
After speaking with @cgdhopkins about the lack of database for IWGC/CWGC gardeners with IWGC headstones, here’s what I’ve started…I’d love to know if there are any I’ve missed (it’s a work in progress!) en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Lis… #iwgc #cwgc #ww1
A couple of photos from today’s @CWGC rededication at Achiet le Grand for Pte George Galloway. Previously missing, a new headstone marks the location he was originally buried in 1916. #fww #somme #battlefields #LestWeForget

My new article in @britainatwar pays tribute to the late, great Gordon Fennell - one of the last known survivors of the 1942 Dieppe Raid. Rest in peace, sir, and thank you for your service. Thanks also to 🇨🇦 historian David O'Keefe (@okeefehistorian) for the exclusive quote!

When I was researching my book, I looked up Joseph Wemheuer, a bombardier from Chicago who was sheltered by Rosine Witton in Arras. Just googling around, I noticed that an auction house was selling a lot of his uniform, medals, and training notes (also his caterpillar club pin).
What are 5 topics you can talk about unprepared for 5 minutes? 1. Life on the Somme during WW2 (inc French Resistance) 2. Female US Parachute Riggers, 1944/1945 3. The Thiepval Memorial 4. US Medical Service in WW2 5. Why cats are the best pets ever 🐈

Dozens of IWGC gardeners and their family members died during the SWW. So did the son of one of the Commissioners, J.J. Lawson, MP. Clive Lawson, age 9, was one of several children killed on 1 May 1942 when a bomb hidden beneath the rubble in Beamish exploded.

On #AnzacDay we pause to reflect & honour those who came before, who fought for our liberties & whose sacrifices we work to remember. At the end of my tenure as Director @sirjohnmonash, I reflect on the opportunity I’ve had to ensure those stories are shared.
As someone who literally owes her life to those who fought on the allied side during WW2 I'll never forget. My father's family was starving, my mother's family was close to death in a Japanese concentration camp. I came very close to never being born. Eternal gratitude.
Remembering on Anzac Day those who came from the uttermost ends of the earth and still lie in the fields of France. We will remember them. #anzac #anzacday #nzmemorial #longueval #somme #Remembrance
