G’day and welcome to the third season of True Blue History.
Thanks to all those who have supported the podcast, and a special
welcome to new listeners. What a line-up of great guests
and topics we have for you this year, On today’s podcast, we’ll be
joining my good mate, Battlefield tour guide, Pete Smith, on a
walk around the iconic Belgian town of Ypres. Known as ‘Wipers’ to
the Allied soldiers, the town and surrounding countryside were the
scene of some of the most fierce and tragic events
on the Western Front during the Great War.
