On Monday, 4 November, at 7:00 pm, Mike More will give an online presentation to OGS Leeds and Grenville Branch about his grandfather’s experience in the British Army in the First World War. Mike says, “To many Canadians, The Great War was fought in the trenches of France. But my grandfather spent almost five years in India and the Middle East. This was truly a global war, and although few Canadians served on other fronts, there was a great deal of fighting outside of France, and “Soldiers of the King” were involved in all of them, along with many other nations. I’ll briefly summarize what happened in the other areas of the conflict.”
All are welcome to this free presentation. For more details and to register, visit https://leedsandgrenville.ogs.on.ca/
The Forgotten Front in East Africa was another of these neglected First World War conflict areas.
