152: The Unknown Warrior with John Nichol – The Paperback Version
In this episode we talk to RAF veteran and writer John Nichol about his book “The Unknown Warrior”. After the hardback version of the book sold so well it has now been published in paperback. We discuss how remembrance has changed over the last 105 years and I read sections of his book following the final journey of the warrior from the battlefield to Westminster Abbey. We also listen to the words of a blinded soldier who was at the ceremony in November 1920. What did it mean to him?
