Sorry to hear of the death of Lyn Macdonald, influential and pioneering historian of the First World War.

His interest in the campaign comes from his grandfather, Fred, who served as a cyclist with the BSF from 1915 to 1917, mainly in the Struma valley. Opinions expressed in these posts are his and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Society.
