My great uncle who was forgotten in the family until last year. I suspect my dad was named for him.

Lovely view from my kitchen (looking towards the Isle of Wight) when I was having my tea this evening. Can you see the moon?

The Museum of Military Medicine is packing up, about to leave Keogh barracks for a new museum home (it will also have a presence in a couple of other places), aided by the Army today. Brilliant members of RAMS dismantling display cases.

Just watched your talk on WW2TV
Really interesting presentation, made want to know about the Burma campaign, bought the book immediately after! 😄
My dad was in Burma in 1945, as crew on landing craft LCI(L) 183 & 180
It would be fascinating to know who they were transporting

First pic. Apparently this is beautiful, in Valletta next to the ruined opera house.
Second pic. We stayed in the Grand Excelsior Valletta, earlier this month, faded elegance (room decor a little tired but spotless), lovely food and staff, lovely situation overlooking Manoel island.
