After growing up in a Scottish orphanage Matt Mackinnon-Pattison volunteered for the army at the first opportunity and found himself fighting with a Highland regiment in Italy.

In this third and final instalment, Matt describes life in Italy and how the war took its toll on fighting men like him.

We’d like to thank Matt on behalf of all listeners of We Have Ways for telling us his brilliant story so vividly.
