Another helping of soldierly stories wrapped up in rhyme.
We’ve got a poignant verse written to a soldier by his tank comrades whilst he was laid up wounded in a military hospital.
A poem written by German soldier Heinrich to his girlfriend. He never came back from the front but his loving lines have been re-enacted for us by Kessie and Rolf.
And there’s a recce mission for us all to work together on! I’m going to be asking for listeners’ help in locating Nancy, the long lost wife of a soldier killed in action.
