This was posted on the Lexicans’ Facebook page by Kevin Peterson. Wanted to share it here. In honor of all of those who’ve paid the ultimate price. But especially in honor of my great-uncle Robert Bain, a Scotsman who gave his life for King and Country on the Western Front. October 1918.
RIP Sgt.
Had a great uncle, Peter Zouch, killed under similar circumstances by a sniper’s bullet, a week before armistice.
An entire generation wiped out. ‘The war to end all wars’, ‘Never again’, wise words.
