    Had an amazing evening having a private tour of the forgotten battery at St Martin. The local land owner was incredibly knowledgeable.

    Nothing says "appeasement" like the Nazi-Soviet Pact...

    Dunkirk was caused by the appeasement, opposed by Churchill. Phoney War was its last stage. What is your view of it?

    Learn their stories. Archives, letters, diaries, maps tell us much of the trench war. But archaeology can help us see what they saw.

    Peter doesn't speak German. But he takes people with him that do, thereby proving it is possible.
