The Last Volunteer - A Tribute to Henry Allingham
In the closing years of his long life, First World War veteran Henry Allingham tells his story as a tribute to the millions who never returned home from the war.
For decades, Henry Allingham shut out his wartime memories. When he died at 113, he was the oldest man in the world and the oldest surviving volunteer serviceman of the First World War. And yet, in the closing stages of an extraordinary life, Henry decided to tell his story as a tribute to the millions who never returned home.
麻豆官网首页入口 reporter Robert Hall spent four years travelling with Henry as the last volunteer battled age and ill-health to do his duty, and remain on parade.
