Abstract

John Lane was a regular, and an officer in the Royal Artillery. His abiding memories are with the men he served alongside. He arrived in the winter of 1951, just as the war began to coalesce around the 38th Parallel. Firing twenty-five pound artillery guns consumed much of his time, and he took up positions in the most vulnerable places like the Hook.
