Since the launch of Wartime News in 1995, its popularity has grown, with editions now mailed to a wide readership around the UK and overseas. Each issue of this quarterly publication features personal reminiscences of the Second World War, many being published for the first time. Events that made news headlines over 65 years ago are being told today and are timely reminders of the tremendous struggle to overthrow the Nazi domination of Europe. Written by the veterans themselves, Wartime News features their experiences of war, many as very young men and women, never having left home before. Those memories are so strong and clear today and can only be described by those who were there, some enduring the harshest conditions imaginable.

Wartime News readers are people of all ages but primarily veterans. They live in all parts of Great Britain, from Lands End to John O'Groats. We also have readers and contributing authors living in Europe as well as Australia, Canada and the USA. Some manage wartime associations whilst other are readers, just like you! People from all walks of life contribute to Wartime News. We don't just feature major battles like Dunkirk, El Alamein and the Italian Campaign. All stories are unique written by ordinary men and women who were drawn into this conflict. Stories from PoWs, WAAFs, ENSA, Bomb Disposal, fighter crews, merchant seamen, and those back home like the Land Army, Civil Defence and Home Guard - the list is endless! However, our readers also recall the good times, the camaraderie that exisited throughout the war, the concert parties, meeting loved ones - all this making the perfect combination for a trip down 'Memory Lane'. So many times, readers say, "my story may not be of much interest..." but how wrong they are as everyone has a story to tell about those dark days.

Lost Pals - a column to locate missing friends and lost service pals from the war. We've achieved many successful reunions through Wartime News, several from more than 50 years ago!

65 Years Ago - Do you remember these events? An opportunity for readers to respond with their own reminiscences.

Finders, Seekers - where the help of readers is sought to solve a 'missing piece of the jigsaw'. Over 15 years of publication, Wartime News has enjoyed a high success rate in repatriating lost pals.
