This video features a book review of "Echoes of an African War" by Chas Lotter. The book details the author's experiences as a field medic in the Rhodesian Army from 1971 to 1980. The review highlights that the book focuses on the psychological and emotional journey of a soldier, rather than tactical or political aspects of the conflict. It draws parallels to World War I soldier poets and emphasizes the universal nature of wartime experiences.
This video features different voices reading Wilfred Owen's poem 'Dulce Et Decorum Est' accompanied by a montage of World War One photographs. The project was a collaboration between the Royal Armouries education team in Leeds and the Northern Film School at Leeds Metropolitan University. It's part of a series of nine short films exploring themes central to the museum's collections.
