On a grey rainy day, I was looking through some pictures and found this one with sunshine and shadows - our long hot summer seems a distant memory as the rain runs down my window #WW1 #FWW

Warrior-class armour cruiser HMS Achilles in her Dazzle paint scheme in 1918.
Although four Warrior-class ships were built, this was the only one to survive the FWW (WW1).

Two war memoirs, written by two Danes sharing the same name. One, a Schleswig Dane called up to fight in the German Army - the other, a Danish volunteer in the Canadian Army who won a Victoria Cross.

Question for all First World War/French battlefield experts: what is the best way of getting from Arras to Vimy Ridge if (like me), you can't drive? My attempt to get to the Thiepval Memorial from Albert today was a dismal failure. 😭😭
Though I did get to see the 1916 Somme Museum. #WW1 #FWW
