Int it strange how numbers always get remembered.my Mam died in 1990,on the 9th Day,in the 9th hour at the 9th minute.
Watched re-run of Rememberance programme from a few years ago,and they showed a telegraph hand written note of the actual message that was relayed to all,that hostilities would cease at 11am and then there were the poor souls who died in the last hour and minutes leading up to the ceasefire.
Anyone watch the programme of the pioneering army doctor who invented plastic surgery to try and help the facially wounded soldiers,feck you should have seen some of the injuries to the faces.Originally all that would be done for facial injuries is a plate/cover painted in a skin tone would be worn.
