Sussex to the Somme: Lowther's Lambs
The Old Front Line - A podcast by Paul Reed - Saturdays
Categories:
In this episode, we follow the story of the Southdowns Battalions of the Royal Sussex, "Lowther's Lambs"; often seen as the nearest Sussex had to Pals Battalions. We look at their story from their formation in September 1914 to their virtual destruction at Richebourg and Hamel in 1916. We also discuss the journey I made in the 1980s to follow their war and interview some of the last remaining veterans. Send us a textSupport the show
