One extreme to the other today! Railways and old railways on this one were, ahem, interesting.

Military historians!!

This is my friend Jeremy's great grandfather presumably transcribing morse at some juncture in WW1.

No more else is known.

Can anyone shed further light?

I can't decipher any of those shoulder badges or buttons etc but sure someone can.

If you’re not already following his photo thread of agh57.bsky.social then it’s well worth a look! Really want to go here now, perhaps along with the traces in Slovenia….. thanks for posting Andrew

A member at my WFA Branch bought a copy of Before Endeavors Fade. Within it was this photograph. He'd like to return it. Does anyone recognse it?

I’ve started a Bsky Starter Pack for those interested in the study of war graves from the two world wars. If there’s someone that should be included let me know and I’ll add them to it.

Following the lead of @tjgodden.bsky.social here are photos of my first trip to the Old Front Line in 1980. Newfoundland Park. Bouchoir Cem (now sans trees) which is on the Amiens to Roye road - special to me. Painted sign to water point (touched up each spring?) now probably long gone.
