3: The Fall of a Woodcock
' And my little Judas - my Kamensky-will die too. Chubinov will kill him. But, Laura, you must not let that happen: it is your Christian duty to do everything you can to prevent it.' Producer JANE GRAHAM
War stories are often obscured by sentimentality or heroics. The reality was very different for the men of the 13th Service Battalion, Rifle Brigade, who fought a battle at Monchy-le-Preux, a small rural town in northern France, on 10 April 1917.
The Battalion's Old Comrades Association, founded by BERT THORNE , has been going back to Monchy ever since
In this anniversary programme members tell their own story of a journey - perhaps their last - to see the battlefield and remember old pals for whom April 1917 was their last trip to Monchy.'
