I have just started writing about lighthouses and stories of shipwrecks around South Africa. I found some letters written by survivors in the mid 1800’s. It’s riveting to hear first hand experiences. I can imagine that this program is going to show a side of war that no Hollywood studio can produce. Real life from real soldiers.
Thank you for your comment! I agree–it’s important and fascinating to get things straight from the horse’s mouth so to speak… It is important in terms of understanding the realities and brutalities of war as well.
