If you have reached the end of this thread then it has taken you 5mins to read. This is the same amount of time that it took for all of this to happen.
5mins for Hancock to redress his lines. 5mins for the First Minnesota to die.
5mins, to help win a battle.
5mins to save a nation. /12

A stone tablet bears the legend, originally on a wooden board: The Devonshires held this trench, the Devonshires hold it still.

William Noel Hodgson was born on this day in 1893. A poet and a soldier in the 9th Devons, he lost his life on the first day of the Somme and is buried in Devonshire Cemetery. This book by Charlotte Zeepvat is an excellent chronicle of his short yet exceptional life. Rest in peace . #WW1 #GreatWar
