A Discussion on WW1 Aviation with Mike O’Neal

A Discussion on WW1 Aviation with Mike O’Neal

Join us for a great discussion on the beginning and development of Mike O'Neal’s passion for WW1-era aviation. 
Tijd: 1:38:09
Recently I was invited to a Zoom discussion with some other WW1 enthusiasts to talk about what we can do to keep the memory of WW1 alive in these post-centenary times. At that talk was Mike O’Neal, a longtime WW1 aviation enthusiast, and we quickly connected to get Mike on the podcast talking about his lifelong passion. 
 
Folks, if ever there is an example of being bold and striking out for what you want to do, here it is. In his teens, Mike wrote letters to various journals and WW1 veterans, and the results have been amazing friendships and working on some fascinating projects. He was listed as a contributor to journal articles in his teens, a WW1 aviator gave Mike his wings for good luck, he acquired his own biplane, and much more.
 
Join us for a great discussion on the beginning and development of Mike’s passion for WW1-era aviation.

Advisory: Nothing bad in the episode, but you may hear my family in the background talking, as well as one of the cats scratching and meowing at the door. Apologies, but our house is a lively one. There is always something going on. :)

Beschrijving

The Battles of the First World War Podcast goes in-depth into the battles of the Great War of 1914-1918. The goal is to really go into the details of how and why these battles unfolded and happened as they did. In telling the narrative of these clashes we can revisit some of the stories of the men and women who lived, fought, and died during the first titanic struggle of the 20th Century, for these people have stories that deserve to be told.

Bingedigging into WW1 history

Have been into WW2 history for years by coincedence (we stayed 3 days in Peronne on our way to southern France) stumbled into the Great War. Started reading Wikipedia, watched YouTube video’s, visited the Peronne museum and.. stumbled onto your podcast. Have been binge listening. Digging not into the ground but into history. Even checked the Franco-prussian war. Sometimes hard to follow with all the places, local names and brigade/corps/divison names but Google maps and Google images for terms like “battle Somme fricourt map” helps. Kind regards from a ‘neutral’ Dutch listener.

The Somme

Together with the book The Somme of Peter Barton and the maps and panoramas in the book the battle of the Somme comes as near and lively in your podcast as it can be: superb!!!
