Letters of the month PQR
Guest Speaker John Carter
John C Gave a very interesting talk on a variety of items, including a pepper
Pot pistol, swords, and knives. There were some particularly interesting
items from the Royal naval division of WW1. John talked about how the
division, consisting of 8 battalions were utilised in trench fighting. The
division took many of their naval traditions into the trenches, and other
regular divisions, often found their navel customs unusual.
