Africa's world war 2 veterans.

Neglected veterans (they certainly seem to feel that way) tell their story in a new exhibition.
BBC NEWS | In pictures: Africa's World War II veterans, Untold story

IWM North's page on the exhibition.
Welcome to the Imperial War Museum North Home Page : Afrikan Heroes: Veterans of the Second World War

Cheers,
Adam.

The 14th Army could be considered a fine example of every race , creed and colour striving for a common goal.
