The Retreat from Mons
Speaker: Mike Shaw
Between the 24th August 1914 and the 4th September 1914 the British Army retreated nearly 300 miles from Mons to the River Marne.
This included several actions against the advancing Germans to slow them down and to eventually halt.
Mike Shaw will take in an depth look at the retreat.
Members of the WFA and non-members alike are equally welcome. Any new visitors are guaranteed a friendly atmosphere and a warm welcome from a group of like minded enthusiasts.
We ask for a modest £5 to defray costs, this will include a free tea or coffee and entry into our famous raffle.
