👏👏👏 great episode. From every angle there’s something to experience… below it from the Granatloch it’s imposing; how it is dominated from Mouquet Farm… and then in the distance from the isolation of Munich Trench.. what a feeling.

Thanks for posting the podcast. Scottish born, Ipswich resident, Pte William Garlick (pictured right), 21st Battalion, CEF, killed in action 15-17th September 1916 and believed to be buried in Courcelette British Cemetery. Great uncle.

QnA @OldFrontLinePod Episode 59: Was the Hawthorn Mine fired early for Geoffrey Malins' camera? Did #WW1 veterans judge the 1940 defeat? Can you excavate a trench beneath your garden? What happened when a soldier's remains were found in the 1920s?
