Program Description

Event Details

Delving into one's ancestry often unveils narratives lost to time. Retired social studies teacher and army officer, Robert Browne, embarked on a genealogical journey that led to the rediscovery of the obscured yet pivotal role of the WW1 Balloon Corps in major battles. This revelation was intimately connected to his great-uncle, a Balloon Corps veteran who endured shell-shock (presently recognized as PTSD) and subsequently lived out his years in the Northport Veterans Bureau Neuropsychiatric Hospital. Join us as Robert Browne unfolds this compelling family saga, spotlighting a unique chapter of war history through a personal lens. Please register.
