Mugsy - incredibly searing and moving piece. Thank you for sharing your experience, and for sharing that of Wilbur and so many who were there with him. And also so crucially: for making the vital point about the insidiously devastating effect of misinformation, whether incidental or intentional.
This certainly shook me to the core. Especially since my Grandfather was 15 when he voluntarily enlisted in WW1. Both him and my Father went to their graves with secrets never told from both World Wars.
