Unbelievable. @thetimes.com here, proving irony is dead.
What a day for the nation.
Apropos the recent @WeHaveWaysPod series, the film of Sink the Bismarck is a constant, smashing reminder of men and map rooms. Affinity with the situation at a distance, decision-making in context, correlation on a small scale and horrendous decisions. Maps, eh.
On @newsofthewar.bsky.social, we've revelled in stories that aren't well known, 1939-45. We were keen to do a VC-special. But when @andyaitch.bsky.social realised he'd got unseen film of Ian Liddell VC - that was something else.
This week, It was the anniversary of T E Lawrence's untimely demise. Left a few desert blooms for him, not so long ago. The marker where he fell nearby was looking rough, but the cemetery is kept tidy.
Part 2 of our VC special is out this Friday….you’ve heard of the Arnhem VCs? Cain, Baskeyfield, Lord, Greyburn and Queripel.
Well, in the words of Yoda “there is another”
Tune in on Friday to News of the War
