Wilfred Owen, 1917 [Oct. 1st, 2014|02:54 pm]

In July 1918, Owen returned to active service in France, although he might have stayed on home-duty indefinitely. Owen was killed in action on 4 November 1918 (at the age of 25) during the crossing of the Sambre–Oise Canal, exactly one week (almost to the hour) before the signing of the Armistice.
