S1 E15: The one about the Brothers in Alms Exhibition

In this fascinating episode, our hosts are joined by Brian Deutsch, the curator of the ‘Brothers in Alms’ exhibition at Freemasons’ Hall. This innovative exhibition features a diverse range of photographs from the period spanning the Second Boer War to the end of the Second World War. Brian sheds light on the profound impact of war on the psychology of those who served and survived. Together with our hosts, he discusses why many veterans found solace and purpose within Freemasonry after their wartime experiences. This episode is an absolute must-listen for history enthusiasts, veterans, and anyone fascinated by the intertwined stories of Freemasonry and the armed forces!
