This is just my own twopennoth but I wondered if you'd considered annotating your story -explaining how your present-day research has changed your understanding of the situation as you recorded it at the time - rather than simply correcting it?

Good point from the BBC chap.
As has been said before, it is interesting to see difference in what you thought happened from memory as to what did from Official records.
Compared to some bloomers from history , Ron, your's in fairly minor.
I rememeber once reading that an Historian said to a Great War Veteran,
"Just because you were there doesn't mean you know what was going on."
Although that sounds like a put down I can see what the Historian was trying to say.
I can't even remember the names of villages & towns I was in 20 odd years ago in Germany & Denmark.
