Military brat, then served myself. I have a passion for the Great War and in particular The Rifle Brigade, my fathers old Regiment. Was very fortunate in that my first tours of the Western Front were with my grandfather before he passed away. That is when the battlefields came alive as it was the only time he talked about it but, he was like a little schoolboy when he returned to the areas he had fought in.
