Sergeant Bernard Brookes was a signaller in World War One. He
recorded his day-to-day experiences in notebooks, which he wrote up
later during convalescence. He describes unsentimentally the
appalling conditions in the trenches and includes the famous
Christmas Truce, as well as humorous exploits during rest periods
and even while under fire (including chimney-climbing and the
chicken incident). After ten months in Flanders, Bernard was tasked
with going 'over the top' to the captured lines to deliver an order
- after two signallers had already been killed trying. Covered in
mud and scrambling over dead bodies during heavy bombardment,
22-year-old Bernard achieved his mission but suffered shellshock.
He was invalided out of active service and spent the rest of the
War at various military hospitals, first as a patient and then as a
staff member. He never regretted joining the Army. ***All profits

Permission to act is traditionally evoked through the experience of
images. The digital world permits us to convey our spiritual
experiences in ways that were impossible in the past. Distribution
to millions of people will alter global perception and personal
sensitivities to extrasensory viewing. "Soul Caller" provides the
sparks to lighten a path where body and soul dwell in harmony with
nature.
