Visit to The National Memorial Arboretum.
On Wednesday last week, I was lucky enough to be invited by Captain Mike Feltham to document a trip by the North West Russian Convoy Club to the National Memorial Arboretum in Stafford. Seven veterans in all, plus family and friends made the trip. It was great to meet them, hear their stories and film the veterans at the new Russian Convoy memorial.
While doing some research on the Arctic Convoys, I found this BBC documentary on the Arctic Convoy disaster PQ17, which is well worth watching and gives and insight into what conditions would have been like.
