92 squadron Lightnings at Gutersloh.

My dad was with 92 Sqn in Gutersloh. Perhaps one of these shadowy figures is him.

Bandeath - Just outside Stirling. This is where I was today - but  it was grey and rainy and looked a bit spooky.

Some great sounds here. Reminds me of one time I was alone on one of the local golf courses and stopped playing to watch what seemed like my own personal aerobatic display by a Spitfire which 'beat up' the golf course (the display was for the benefit of the nearby Rolls Royce factory celebrating an anniversary of the Merlin engine).
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

This is brilliant. It says 1930s, but I would think 1939-1940.

I try and match the way my troops act to the way they were trained. In this film, I would kick any NCO who allowed his troops to advance as bunched up as the Germans in this film.

Perhaps the Narrator plays with some of those "Novelty dice".

The merits of Classic Greece vs Ancient Rome; debated by Boris Johnson and Mary Beard.

Not military, but erudite and great fun.
