What a great experience for the young men, a lovely programme and educational too. One of the veterans interviewed has recently published his autobiography, DROPPED IN IT by Colin Hall on Amazon as ebook, out in paperback in 1 or 2 weeks.

I wish we saw a programme were our politicians were also watching the progammes and heard them comment on how they were going to work hard at not letting such horror happen again, and again.
You might be interested in a new HBO Documentary called - Warton - 1861-2010
