Really pleased to be at Clan Cameron Museum, Achnacarry (that's near Ft William)next Wednesday (27th Aug) to talk about this gem. Captured at Loos by 5th Bn Cameron Highlanders. If you're around do come along (11.00-15.00) - I'll be the lonely nerd standing by the gun. #FWW #WW1 #Greatwargroup #WFA

Fancy a trip to Scotland? A warm welcome awaits in Bonnie Dundee. Our second national conference (1st was 2014). Some big names. Should be a great day and you get to see RRS Discovery. #wfa #FWW #GreatWar #FWW #wfatayside @thegreatwargroup.bsky.social

A request, having had some success on here previously! Are there any Edinburgh / Glasgow based academics specialising in ecology and rewilding out there who’d be prepared to give a lecture or run a session for a group of US students coming over in May next year?
Please repost!

Yesterday Andy Moody gave a talk to the Tayside Branch of @TheWFA about the Medium Mark A Whippet tank “Musical Box” and her wartime service. Andy is part of a group who have recreated a life size replica of “Musical Box”.

Winter is Here. A low and dishonourable week brings an end to eighty years of western history.

Winter Has Come
Eighty years of western history ended this week. What comes next is not likely to be good.

I also daily post on what happened on this day (#OTD) in #WW2. If you already follow me, please "retweet" 😉. Will be appreciated!
Market Garden failed. Not because roads are narrow in Holland, not because British 30 Corps was slow and not because there were two German Panzer Divisions in the area. It failed because this bridge in Nijmegen was captured too late. Read/buy my two books. pre-jump.nl

Members like lovely Russ get four of these a year as a member. The theme always covers about 35-40%, the rest is a mix of subjects. This year they’ve also had a magazine with the broad remit of ‘Belgium’

All of our back issues are available on the website…

If you are researching the British military history of the First World War, the chances are you have already made use of Chris Baker's invaluable web site www.longlongtrail.co.uk.
Having seen quite a few WW1 related starter packs that haven't counted me in, I can only conclude I do not feature among the cognoscenti. Oh, well. C'est la guerre.
