If you have time, take a look at this wonderful blog by Highland Archives Service. It is called Caithness At War and tells the story of WW2 in real time, starting from August 1939 this past August and, presumably, continuing into 1940 when the new year arrives.
The weekly articles are illustrated by newspaper clippings and several excerpts from Henrietta 'Hetty' Munro's war time diary which we also hold here at the Orkney Archive. Have a look, do! Do! Go on! Do!
Thank you!!! We are very glad that you enjoyed reading our blog and hope you stay tuned. We wish all staff and visitors of the Orkney Archives a very merry Christmas and a happy 2013.
