“First World War Letters” is a documentary that CBC just launched using letters that are found in the Rooms Provincial Archives.
The Rooms holds thousands of pieces of correspondence from the First World War, written by Newfoundlanders and Labradorians. They come from the records of the men and women who signed up to serve King and Country at home, in the trenches, on the sea and in the air.
Take some time to watch and listen to their stories. These are the voices of our families. Click on the link below:
