I’m pleased to share this Christmas card from Noah, our adopted mule, who lives at the Redwings Horse Sanctuary Centre at Caldecott, and add my own festive wishes to all our members, friends and visitors.
And here’s a suitably seasonal equine photo from the Macedonian campaign …
“In the Snow” – a photograph from an album which belonged to Sapper Harry Smith of 28th Divisional Signals (RE), probably from the winter of 1916/17. The album has been generously shared with the Society by Roger Smith, Harry’s great-nephew.
Noah and I wish you a very merry Christmas and all the very best for 2026!

Robin's 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 where he caught malaria and dysentery. Robin joined the SCS in 2003 and served on the committee for 18 years as journal and then web editor. Opinions expressed in these posts are his and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Society.
