Francis Warren

I note that John Quinn insists that Francis Purcell (Bunny)Warren was killed in 1917. Strangely this is at variance with the War Graves Commission website which gives the date as 3rd July 1916. Warren died aged 21. He had fought in the South Lancashire Regiment and is buried at Thiepval Cemetery. He reached the rank of Second Lieutenant. Of course the WGC could be wrong...
I am certain that Warren will be looking down on us busily discussing the date that he handed in his mug and blanket - and I am sure he will be smiling!
