I AM the organiser for the War Research Society which was formed more than 30 years ago by serving police officers and ex-servicemen. The society supports a number of causes, including the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, Normandy Widows and Veterans and other charities.
The society runs coach trips to the First and Second World War battlefields, cemeteries and historic sites of Northern Europe. This year, a selection of the places to be visited includes Ypres and the Somme, Normandy, Arnhem and the Ardennes.
All trips have an experienced guide and include conducted tours of the battlefields and visits to requested cemeteries.
I would welcome inquiries to the address below from readers in the North-East and North Yorkshire, but would ask for a medium-sized stamped addressed envelope so that literature detailing tour dates, costs, etc, can be forwarded.
Alternatively, I can be contacted on 0121-459-9008.
Alex Bulloch, 43 Norfolk House, Baldwin Road, Kings Norton, Birmingham, B30 3LB.
