Episode Four – Robert McNeil The APT

Robert was one of Marie’s Anatomical Pathology Technicians -or APTs.  They worked together in Glasgow and Ireland, and then in Bosnia where they witnessed the horror of mass graves and grieving families trying to find the remains of their loved ones.  Robert retired in 2009 and now uses his art as form of therapy for the PTSD caused by what he experienced over the years. He is an ambassador of Remembering Srebrenica.
