Home on leave 4

Father with his younger brother Charlie.

Uncle Charlie was wounded and posted as missing in action presumed killed in France.
We still have copies of the family correspondence about this and I shudder
each time I read it.

Fortunately it had a happy ending, he was still alive but captured by the Germans
and after a short time was part of an injured prisoner exchange. After the war,
he found his name on a local war memorial, but couldn't get it removed.
He lived until he was 97!!
