Meet more soldiers who are convalescing at a military hospital ' Somewhere in Wales '
The first ' Doing Well ' brought to the microphone nearly 300 soldiers whose community singing assured listening relatives and friends that they were ' Doing Well '. There was also an array of talent ranging from guitarists to performers on the bagpipes and the spoons. Other soldiers told stories of adventure and humorous misadventure. There will be more of this tonight.
