À propos de cet audio
In this episode we discuss the importance of oral history and what it tells us about the experience of conflict and the culture of the British military in the Great War, and we contrast two interviews I did with veterans in the 1980s: Jack Aston who served with 12th Squadron Royal Flying Corps and Aubrey Rose who was with the Queen's Westminster Rifles at Ypres and the Somme.
The image for this episode shows Aubrey Rose in 1914.
Aubrey Rose's officer killed at Gommecourt was: Captain Hugh Fenwick Mott.
