Thumbs up Private Len Smith - WWI soldier & artist

Interesting article about British Army Private Len Smith. His "spy" drawings of WWI German trenches and fortifications were extremely accurate and now his story and artwork has been published.

Re: Private Len Smith - WWI soldier & artist

Wow, that's just too amazing! Thanks for the article and link, B6. His life story and work would make a great film series drama on
PBS Masterpiece Theatre, just like they did for Derek Robinson's "A Piece Of Cake" novel.
