I've just skimmed through the whole lot, YT .... what an absolutely incredible collection, and a very lucky purchase .... must be worth hundreds, not the tenner you paid for them.

What they show is daily life for soldiers on that front in WW1 in a way I've not seen before .... you really get a feel for what was happening, what it was like .... I will go through the whole lot again, and study each in more detail.     


And I might start going to car boot sales !!

A lot more to catch up on since my last visit to your fascinating thread YT. What a richly illustrated glimpse of a slice of history I knew nothing about. Thank-you for posting them.
