This blog is about Australian WWI Tunnellers on the Western Front.
It shows the story of one tunneller, Major Leslie Coulter, using archival documents, facts, book extracts and personal reflection. And it briefly imagines the story of his loved ones back home in Ballarat Victoria, Australia, the home town of Major Coulter.
World War I lasted 4 years and mobilised more than 70 million military personnel.
Major Leslie Coulter was one of them. This is a fragment of his story.
