Some... get quite generic after a few though
Read Zamperini's book, which was quite good.
One about V2 rockets was quite interesting too.
Watching the Bletchley Circle?
No, I don't really watch tv
Been to Bletchley a couple of times.
Read a few books about it... and codebreaking in general.
We had a vet show us round as well
Cool guy, hope hes still alive given this was like 10 years ago
Nah he was an RAF vet, I cant remember if he actually had any connection with the place during the war but he gave a long talk on his war service
Its the cool thing about doing WW2 era for dissertations is you can interview surviving veterans. Few of my coursemates did this
Good point
Re: battlefield - is Ypres WW1?
Ah
Remember being utterly chilled at the remembrance site there, too.
Have you been to Singleton Open Air Museum, B?
The Bayeux Tapestry is neither a tapestry nor was it made in Bayeux
You mean Queen Matilda's tapestry?
