I just showed your mail to my mother, and she was thrilled and moved that you went to all this trouble to find our family to pass on your thanks.
For your information,the reason the two boys were shot at when they returned to their lines ,was a failure to tell the change of guard ,by the officer in charge, that they were out in front. This was something my father found hard to come to terms with.
There is a recording in the house of my father giving an interview in Gaelic about the incident.As far as I remember it was subtitled.If we can find it I will post the name and it may come up on Google
Cheers and thank you Chris
