Phil Dutton, Documentation Officer in the Department of Exhibits and Firearms will give a short talk on the life and First World War service of stylish Edwardian satirist and master of the short story, Hector Hugh Munro otherwise known as 'Saki' (1870-1916). Munro as a venerable 40-something joined the British Army as a volunteer on the outbreak of war in 1914 and endured to the full the rigors of active service life until his untimely death in November 1916.
