Inhoudsopgave
- Letter sent by the battalion chaplain to Buchanan’s mother, confirming his death after weeks during which he had been posted missing in action. Families usually received official communication only when there was bad news. When a family member was killed in action or posted missing, military authorities tried to send and confirm information quickly. Where time and the circumstances of war allowed, personal correspondence from an officer, chaplain or comrade was sometimes received.
