RE: Hidden History: The Sinking Of The Lancastria, A True Story Told Through The Eyes Of My Grandad
This is an incredible tale and it is great that you have recorded it and honoured your Grandad and those that perished.
It is shocking that this has been buried in history and only reinforces the fact that most accepted history is just one presented version of truth ~ not the truth!
My Grandad flew with Lawrence of Arabia and once sat me down and shared a small tortoiseshell box of photographs of his time spent with The Royal Flying Corp in Cairo in the First World War.
So many stories lost.

Thanks my friend, I really appreciate both the support and kind words!!
It's so sad that many of these stories and accounts that will never be heard, indeed the true face of war is found in the words of the people that fought it. Not the politicians that directed it or the historians and journalists that recorded it.
The sacrifices that our Grandparents generation made are truly humbling and equally give me little patience for the narcissistic direction much of our society appears to be heading in.
It sounds as though your Grandad was an amazing man! Perhaps you should also record his story and keep it alive on the blockchain? Thanks again @ldacey-laforge
