Love military history? We have a terrific range of Love military history? We have a terrific range of military history events to choose from at this summer’s festival, from @jamesholland1940 speaking about BROTHERS IN ARMS: ONE LEGENDARY TANK REGIMENT’S BLOODY WAR FROM D-DAY TO VE-DAY to Max Hastings on SOLDIERS: GREAT STORIES OF WAR AND PEACE.

But also, we have some truly unique events with veterans which should not be missed:

Jack Mann was one of the last surviving members of the secret desert war in North Africa and the Mediterranean and has rarely spoken in public before. SAS VETERAN

Commemorating the 80th anniversary of conscription for women, with a special nod to fellow Army Girl and driver HM Queen Elizabeth in her Jubilee year, 98-year-old Joyce Wilding will explain how, aged eighteen, she joined the elite First Aid Nursing Yeomanry and became an SOE assistant and later a corporal and driver. ARMY GIRLS: FORMER FANY WWII.

As part of the SECOND WORLD WAR DAY, Des Curtis, DFC, a former RAF navigator, will talk about his astonishing wartime experiences carrying out attacks first in Scandinavia, then training with 618 Squadron with bouncing bombs due to be used on an attack on the German battleship, Tirpitz, and then on anti-U-boat operations in the Channel and Atlantic.

And Mark Aston will give a thrilling account of barely surviving a helicopter crash off the cost of the Falklands and going on to join his SAS regiment in their heroic stand on a mountain near Port Stanley. SAS: SEA KING DOWN.
