The Ambassador has been a positive and enthusiastic supporter of our idea from the moment that we mentioned it to him. He immediately offered his London Residence for the launch of the book and agreed without reservation to write the Foreword. Under his tutelage a series of lectures about Belgium and the First and Second World Wars was held during 2008 and will continue in 2009. More details can be obtained from Ann Willems at ann.willems@diplobel.fed.be
Without a moments pause Charles agreed to publish the book. His support was clearly essential to the whole idea. We are immensely grateful to him. His company publishes what is probably the most extensive list of military titles available today and fitting in The Best of Fragments from France cannot have been a simple commitment. Everyone at Pen and Sword has been wonderfully responsive and tolerant of our often demanding communications, none more so than our designer David Hemingway. www.pen-and-sword.co.uk
Over the last few years we have loaned a series of original Bairnsfather cartoons to the Cartoon Museum whose Curator is Anita. She has always given us a warm welcome despite a heavy work load with a series of exhibitions and when we mentioned the idea of an auction she agreed straight away. Chairman Ollie Preston offered the Museum gratis and volunteered to approach the cartoonists for their drawings and to initiate the invitations to the Auction. http://www.cartoonmuseum.org
Without the generous support of the cartoonists there would not be an auction and without the auction the monies raised for Help for Heroes would be greatly reduced. Each contributor has made a very special gesture of donating a piece of their art that links our soldiers over almost 100 years and pays homage to one of their own greats - Bruce Bairnsfather. It is particularly pleasing that not only do we have cartoons from some of the UKs top cartoonists but drawings from America and Belgium as well. We had been looking for 20 cartoons, the majority of which appear in The Best of Fragments From France. That number will be slightly exceeded at the auction and some of the great Belgian cartoons that we have received will be shown in a special Exhibition at Comines-Warneton in October. 2009.
We first met Michel in 2003 when we put up the memorial to Bruce Bairnsfather on the cottage at St Yvon. He and the Burgomaster Albert Deleu dealt with all the details of the ceremony and arranged the vin dhonneur and celebrations that followed. Once more they have helped with this 50th Anniversary Project and now have a specified local tour around the points of Bairnsfather interest in the area of Plugstreet Wood. www.shcwr.org
