Hi All, For those of you who have been following the Pitch In! project on Wikisource, a number of new works from the Maurice George Delpratt collection of correspondence have been uploaded and are ready for transcription.
https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Index:Maurice_George_Delpratt_Correspondence Delpratt was an Australian soldier from the first world war who was taken prisoner by the Turks in 1915. His collection of correspondence to his family after his capture provides a unique insight into the experiences of POWs during the conflict, but also the impact that their capture had on their families and friends back at home. (On reflection, "The Maurice George Delpratt Correspondence" sounds like an excellent name for an indie band, doesn't it?) Cheers, Craig Franklin President - Wikimedia Australia
