Was just going through photos of a recent trip around the western front, and came across this one of John Condon, 14yrs old when gassed at the front. There was also a boy called Sidney Lewis 12yrs old and on the front line, his mother had to write to the war office to get him sent home. How many of our Play station generation would be brave enough.British Ordnance Collectors Network
