Len takes us through the dismal winter of 1916-1917 at Ypres and on the Somme, in this episode which I almost called A for ANZAC. Find out why.
We experience the death of the well loved Colonel Howell-Price, amongst other men.
Joe Weger and his mates take prisoners in a trench raid on Hill 60 and Len describes action at Flers and sightings of some beings 'from another planet'.
Meet Sergeant Yorke, Snooksie, 'Cock' and others that Len could never forget.
This is the longest episode in the Len Jones series, so my apologies if it is too long for you. That is how Len wrote it.
