TitleCartoon from Punch Picture of self standing beside the machine I fly in (an observation balloon or blimp)
NotesMy interest in the First World War originated from chatting to my two grandfathers who had both served in the army, and survived into their 80s or 90s. However my early reading about the war centred around old copies of Punch magazine, especially the cartoons. This is one of my favourites.
