To the grey fields of Normandy,

Came Phantom in their hordes,

Wielding their ruddy chinagraphs,

Much mightier than swords....

One day I’ll write a book dismissing all the D-Day myths with (gasp) facts and logic. It’ll be a flop but god it’ll be cathartic to write.

I used to chat regularly with General Rennie s Phantom Officer. Quite a privilege @sean_f_scullion

A cracking few days earlier this week looking at the crossing of the #Rhine in 1945 for a group later in the years. Starting off at the @CWGC cemetery in the #Reichswald S of #Kleve visiting this man amongst others.... #RealitiesofWar @AndyAitcheson 1/

Markus Lanz is a major political talk show on German TV, watched by ~1.5 million people. Last night it featured a certain Anglo-German historian and her book WEIMAR. I'm grateful for the opportunity to bring some *carefully* drawn observations from history into current debates.

💬 "I'm conflicted about Bond ... were Mr. Bond to apply to join MI6 now, he would have to change his ways".

An extract from Sir Alex's first speech as "C" given in Vauxhall Cross in December 2016.

1/4 Yesterday WO1 Johnson Beharry VC was reunited with the Warrior Infantry Fighting Vehicle in which he earned the Victoria Cross in Iraq in 2004.
This was the first time he had seen the vehicle in 22 years.

Her Majesty Queen Máxima was awarded her beret today after completing the first part of her reservist training. Following a night exercise and the traditional final march, she was greeted by the King and the Crown Princess. An inspiring achievement and a proud moment.🫡🇳🇱

The first plant I bought for my garden when I bought this house 5 years ago.

A David Austin rose named 'The Ancient Mariner' obviously 😂⚓️

It has well and truly bloomed
