Without Lance I doubt that most of the tours would ever get off the ground as his knowledge of battlefields is second to none.  Lance has been the Treasurer for NMBS and this role make sure that all trips run smoothly.  Lance comes from a family with strong links to the RAF.  His father served the RAF for many years and this saw Lance travel all over the world, and this is where his "Battlefield bug" came from. Like Steve Lance is a strong Socialist Trade Unionist - which links to many wars around the world from The Spanish Civil War to the Murder of Trade Unionists in the Nazi death camps. 

Lance's other great passion is Everton FC, which at times must be hard with four Manchester United fans in NMBS.  Lance is somewhat the "Daredevil" of NMBS and is always first in a foxhole, tunnel, trench or as his picture shows at the side of a raging river (The Soldiers Leap in Scotland).  Lance is also a member and supporter of the British War Memorial Project.  Lance also wrote the report on Operation Dragoon.

Lance is the NMBS very own Quentin Tarantino. He has directed 3 NMBS films.... When we get the finished DVD is in the lap of the gods though!
