For those with some time on their hands, I gave a talk recently to the South African Military History Society on the above subject. I was explaining the work of the Monte San Martino Trust, of which I am a Trustee, which involved setting out the background history first. There were two sessions (to stay within the free Zoom 40 minutes) and a Q&A at the end. First session: rapidttp.co.za/milhist/zoomvideo/msmtpt1.mp4 Second session: rapidttp.co.za/milhist/zoomvideo/msmtpt2.mp4 Post-talk discussion: rapidttp.co.za/milhist/zoomvideo/msmtdisc.mp4 Enjoy!!
