Could you tell your war veteran story?

2:45pm Friday 11th May 2012

MY name is David Hiscocks. I am currently running a history and memory project based in the north east which will culminate in a book.

My hope is to interview veterans and relatives of veterans, and by doing so, showcase the importance of preserving their memories for future generations. My belief is that everyone’s memory should be preserved.

Therefore, I am looking for anyone with a connection to any branch of the armed forces who would like their memories (military and social) preserved.

If you would like to be involved please phone 07546 444557, or email david.hiscocks@googlemail.com and I will send you a simple questionnaire, to complete and return. I am especially interested in veterans who served after 1965.

A proportion of any profits from the book will be going to the British Legion.

By getting involved you will be helping veterans today, and educating tomorrow’s generation. I look forward to hearing from anyone who is interested.
