Opinion
I have just completed reading Into the Unknown: The secret WWI diary of Kiwi Alick Trafford, No. 25/469.
For those interested, it is so well worth reading this documented, true account of what was endured.
Our Dad was a veteran of World War One and like many of his comrades,
he never spoke of the horrors of that time.
Many times as youngsters we would be awakened to the sound of terrible screaming. Our mother would rush in to our room and tell us not to worry, Dad was having dreams of being in the trenches or going over the top of an ambush.
I was usually under the bed.
