The Battle of Little Bighorn - The First and Last Fifer

About The Battle of Little Bighorn - The First and Last Fifer

This is by way of Part 2 of a talk which was given two years ago. Jim Watson's great passion and interest is General Custer and the Battle of Little Bighorn. On his last visit Jim spoke on Peter Thompson, the Markinch born soldier who won the Medal of Honour for his actions during the battle.

Last year Jim fulfilled a lifetime's ambition in visiting the battlefield and this talk is about his travels and the site itself. It is sure to be both interesting and informative and well worth attending.

As always teas and coffees along with themed home baking will be available.

On top of that the famous raffle will be in evidence - where the prizes touch both sides of the sublime to ridiculous spectrum.

Come along - all are welcome.
