Small Boat Operations in Africa
Speaker: Dr. James Pritchett
In this talk, James will draw on his research into special operations in the Great War, and focus on 'Small Boat Operations' undertaken during the Great War, on Lake Tanganyika and in the Rufiji Delta. Whilst the Royal Navy's Grand Fleet sat guard in northern waters, the Navy was active elsewhere, conducting strategically important, but small, actions in Africa.
