@SilenceInPolish This is brilliant news! Chuffed that this is a thing and I can stop running my French copy through Google translate and chuffed you were the one to bring it out

@MMoffski I love archive days anyway but they’re even more exciting when you’ve spent most of the year writing 😂

[James Halstead @JamesTTHalstead]

@HistoryBowsh Excellent, happy hunting! I’ve got lots of war diary frog kissing to do today

You’d definitely approve of todays topic

[James Halstead @JamesTTHalstead]

@trickcyclistraf Thanks Lynsey!

I am nothing if not cringe 🤪 (at least I didn’t post my breakfast)

Do any twitterstorians have any hot tips on using the IWM collection online sound archive to find accounts from specific divisions?

[James Halstead @JamesTTHalstead]

@SoSwargaming That’s a superb picture!

[James Halstead @JamesTTHalstead]

@SilenceInPolish Man, I imagine if someone was getting ready to submit their PhD, had spent the last years spending entire days downloading and categorising document photos and had only just found about this they’d be real mad.
