The 52nd Lowlander Division in WWII

00:00:05
Speaker
From 1944 to 1945, the 52nd Lowlander Division is fighting its way across Northwest Europe. The writing is on the wall, but it's also on the page. The Army Education Branch sends a newsletter out to thousands of men, all pulling together, pushing the enemy back. This newsletter is called The Lowlander.

Hello, Andy. Hello, Mary. Hello, hello. So everyone's expecting this week's episodes of The Lowlander, aren't they? Well, I am. What we're going to do is we're going to put out today's episode tomorrow. Is that because of the bank holiday? It might be. It might be very definitely. But it's also the fact that because of the way the leap years are working, this week's editions actually start on the 2nd of April. Ah, I didn't notice that, but then it was too stupid to ask the question.
