In these series of tales, we will read extracts from the diary of a former school boy at Heriots, turned Soldier in the Royal Scots Regiment, who, once back from the War embarked upon a fruitful 37 year long career as an English teacher at George Heriot’s School.
In these diaries we hear stories from Charlie’s last year at school in 1915. He describes the feelings and emotions from his final June Day at Heriot's and the time before he went on to fight during the World War I.
