Video produced from a digital recording (MP3) and PowerPoint of a talk given by John Barnes to the Dornoch Heritage Society on 20th March 2014. At short notice this presentation replaced that originally scheduled for a talk on WW1 by Mike Hook (picture #15679). The talk was based on the Historylinks Museum 'Capt. Rose Collection' personal war diary (picture #6784) and selected photographs from the Lt Money albums. 'The Old Contemptibles' was the nickname self-adopted by the regular army British Expeditionary Force during the first four months of WW1.
