@C28862933 @PratleyRobin It was placed there by his comrades shortly after his death and before IWGC had finalised any plans for permanent cemeteries and headstones. We still had a war to win. When the war finished I guess the agreed to families request to leave it. Had it been a GRU wooden cross…..

Beautiful grave of Capt. Cesari RAMC. Bethune Town Cemetery, France. Shot by a sniper on the afternoon of 3/10/15. He was handing over a dugout. Shot came from 1000 yds away from Hohenzollern Redoubt. Cross erected by fellow officers. Family refused to change it to IWGC stone.

@chinnychick Thanks for posting this. Took me a long time to be able to talk about my issues. Luckily I have a close bunch of friends who are there when I've needed a chat and have cheered me up when I've needed a boost.

Over the last few weeks I’ve seen a post about a male suicide at least once, if not twice per week on my socials. Not just veterans but civvy blokes who were smiling in their pics, seemingly hiding everything that was unraveling inside. From an early age little boys are taught that ‘big boys don’t cry’. Subliminal messages from childhood, amplified by social and gender pressures not to show weakness, to be the head of the family, to be the boss of the company. It’s a lot. A lot for anyone who has a good support network around them. But if that starts to crumble, due to divorce, new jobs, leaving the military etc life can get extremely heavy and lonely very quickly. You are NOT alone. So many out there feel the same, social media is showing us this with the ever increasing authentic posts from those brave enough to share their struggles. Please don’t suffer in silence. #mentalhealth #malesuicide

@sommecourt @OldFrontLinePod Great questions. Seem to remember reading that Henry Tandey VC had his ashes scattered in a cemetery where his mates were buried.

In @OldFrontLinePod we ask could veterans be buried alongside their fallen comrades in war cemeteries, what was the role of snipers on the Western Front, how did Stretcher Bearers cope during Third Ypres & examine what books to read on this iconic battle? oldfrontline.co.uk/2026/03/21/que…

A chaotic explanation about what happened to my previous X account. It might help explain a few things. More likely, like everything in X, it will probably make no sense at all. If nothing else, there is a lovely horse eating carrots. #horses #socialmedia

The world's a bit stressy and depressing at the minute, so here's Fray Bentos making short work of her cronchy bean. Turn your volume up for repto-munch goodness!

Also have to comment on the fact I love dating someone who shares the same passions as me- and isn’t afraid to say that he’s a feminist. I’m a lucky lady indeed ❤️

Buzzing from an incredible event today. As always, @WEDUKNetwork brought together a room full of energy, honesty, and unapologetic ambition and the panel did not hold back. Candid, challenging, and deeply inspiring, offering a perspective that will with me long after tonight!
