Thread Name: Songs about the Great War (WWI)
Subject: RE: Songs about the Great War
Thirteen Florins (Hartest 1915) is about the pals from Hartest in Suffolk - definitely WW1.

Les Sullivan has written several good songs about the Great War, particularly Roses of No Man's Land, Menin Gate, Harvest of Iron and Jutland.

Robb Johnson wrote "Cold in the trenches tonight" many years before "Gentle Men".
