A recording of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission’s (CWGC) Live presentation, The Somme, presented yesterday by historian Max Dutton, is now available to watch for free.
In the first eight hours, more than 10,000 people had already watched the video.
During the hour-long presentation, Mr. Dutton talks about Google Maps, the Battle of the Somme, the Thiepval Memorial, war diaries, and overlay maps.
The CWGC over the next few weeks will provide a series of live webinars about the work of the commission. The Somme is the first in the series.
You can watch The Somme here, or you can go to the CWGC Facebook page and look for it under Videos in the left margin.
