WW1 Podcast with Paul Reed
TeIn this episode we walk the battlefields of the Somme between the villages of Hebuterne and Gommecourt where men of the 56th (London) Division fought on 1st July 1916. We look at the stories of two veterans who were in two separate dugouts here on that day: Malcolm Vyvyan MC, a Gunner officer, and Harry Coates MSM, a Sergeant in the London Scottish. The WW1 object this week is an Imperial Service Badge.
Great story how great to see the shell craters in the wood……Always been fascinated by the diversion attack here and how the 46th North Midlanders got treated after this…….
