Special Feature:
Since I spend so much of my time on
Youtube, I’ve decided to feature each month in 2020 a Youtube channel focussing
on Military History.
This month is the World War Two channel
hosted by Indy Neidell and produced by Spartacus Ollson and Astrid Dienhard.
It is covering World War Two in real time
and has a host of related channels.
Check it out here:
Next meeting Tuesday, February 4th
at 7 pm – same room as last time – I think.
See you then, Warren
