The military history community on X is still very strong. 16 posts over two days for the Battle of the Bulge weekend commemorations- Over 30k+ of visibility Over 1.2k of likes 100 retweets Multiple comments Just reinforces why I would not close X and move to a platform for 1% of the above. The reach for learning, sharing and remembering is far greater here. My posts are not for personal satisfaction, it’s about sharing and the above I mention, the UK media coverage of this will be zero. That includes the British participation in January. Maybe the @BBCBreakfast should do a small feature.

German Rhine 🇩🇪 ? Moselle valley 🇱🇺 ? No ! #Marche-les-Dames in 🇧🇪 : our king 👑 Albert I died here in a 1934 mountaineering accident. The King fell from a rock face and his dead body was found later. A beautiful landscape, a sad event.

The Battle of Mons took place #OTD in 1914: incredibly 110 years ago. It was the first major British engagement of the Great War. In the unique, and incredibly moving, St Symphorien Military Cemetery near Mons, the dead of both sides lie side by side.

21 August 1914. British army private John Parr (aged 17) was killed in Belgium, to become the 1st British soldier killed in the First World War. Born in London, he had worked as a butcher’s delivery boy before he volunteered for the army.

A great visit to the Musée du Souvenir 40/45 at Perwez - with @drtorhumphreys in full flow about Pigeons in #WW2! And thanks to Benjamin who runs the museum for his amazing enthusiasm. It’s a must see site! See: museedusouvenir.be
