So we have:

1: GUEST 16 Nov 15 - 09:20 AM
2: Raggytash 16 Nov 15 - 10:11 AM
3: Raggytash, pointlessly repetitive at 16 Nov 15 - 10:27 AM
4: That master of complete and utter bollocks Jim Carroll 16 Nov 15 - 11:17 AM
5: And finally GUEST 16 Nov 15 - 12:00 PM

All proving to anyone who has the vaguest inkling of the history of the period, and any knowledge of the British Army of the period that those named above haven't got the foggiest notion about the subject they are wittering on about.

All those banging on about Harry Patch - please explain how on earth Harry Patch could have possibly seen shell-shocked soldiers being summarily executed by their officers in the trenches when by his own admission he never in the three months he spent in France never saw a soldier suffering from shell shock? Or is that little anomaly I await your answers, they should be rather interesting, and all will be pure 100% bollocks because logic and commonsense would tell even a complete and utter idiot that if you have never seen or encountered a soldier suffering from shell shock then it is impossible that you could have EVER seen one being shot.
