OTD 15/04/45 Peter White led his platoon, into a block of woods near the small German village of Gross Eilstorf. About 1900hrs, as the sun was setting they ran into an ambush. At less than 30yds range 3 men were hit, Peter narrowly avoided the same fate by inches.

If you join us and @bhltours in October we’ll follow Peters route to the ambush site. https://t.co/mD3b389Gjo

2. All new members must first apply and meet rigorous standards
3. The vast majority of new members since 1991 have joined due to fear of Russian aggression
4. NATO has never attacked Russia
