MY STORY
Hi, I hail from the country town of Glenn Innes NSW Australia, where I grew up on a dairy and cattle farm. I began my career as an Australian Army Surveyor in the Royal Australian Engineers and was seconded to the Australian War Graves Commission in Malaysia, on the Thai Burma Railway. After an entanglement with a  parachute, I departed army life and went on to a Degree in History at Australian National University; Canberra. 

I have worked as a

                   

Most nights you will find me at my painting table refocusing all my armies, buildings, and terrain to authentic French style and Heraldry.  Both Vanessa and I have ongoing French history research as we continue to dig deep into the details of the French History of our region. I focus on families of our regional Chateaux, Knights, Heraldry, and primary source documents, archaeological reports all almost only available in French.
I work consistently behind the scenes to ensure French Wargames Holidays,
offers high-quality Military History Tours across West France.
Cheers
Matt Williamson
