The story of his poor mother is heartbreaking.
Very brave man.
It’s a travesty that WW1 actually happened. Too many brave men die in wars like this for no good reason.

That was really interesting. If you never have to be involved in a conflict in your life, you’ve been lucky.
A fine lad who became a national hero at such a tender age.
The story of his mother is a national disgrace, i hope those responsible for her being denied funds, from the memorial fund in his name, never slept well for the rest of their miserable lives.
I wasn’t aware of this family before, thankyou Cav.
They don’t make them like that any more God Bless him and all those who died in the war to end all wars but it didn’t alas.
