ONLINE: Hearts of Oak - The Zeebrugge Raid 23 April 1918 by Clive Harris
10 Aug

The presentation will be live and online. 

The Zeebrugge Raid was without doubt one of the most daring, enthralling, episodes of the Great War.

This talk will consider both the military and morale impact of the Zeebrugge Raid, it looks at why it was necessary and what it set out to achieve. We look at the raid not as a standalone operation but, set it in the wider context of the Great War and what was happening on the Western Front at the time.  It looks at the dramatic action and eclectic personalities of some of those who took part and finally we consider how it is commemorated today.
