The graves of both men were identified after researchers provided the CWGC with evidence suggesting they had been found. It is thanks to men such as Lt Smith and 2nd Lt Massey Lynch, who paid the ultimate sacrifice during such fierce fighting, that the Allies were able to stem the German advance and bring the war to a conclusion later that year. Had the German Spring Offensive of 1918, in which they fell, been successful then the outcome of the First World War could have been very different. It has been a privilege to have contributed to the identification of these two Officers and to have organised these rededication services. Rosie Barron, JCCC case lead recently said: The services, which were organised by the MOD’s Joint Casualty and Compassionate Centre (JCCC), also known as the ‘MOD War Detectives’, were held at the Commonwealth War Graves Commission’s (CWGC) Ecoust Military Cemetery near Arras and at Crucifix Corner Cemetery at Villers-Bretonneux, France recently (23 March 2023). The graves of Lieutenant (Lt) Harold Rymer Smith and Second Lieutenant (2ndLt) Wilfred John Massey Lynch, who were killed on the Western Front in the spring of 1918, have finally been marked with headstones which now bear their name more than a hundred years after they died.

I've given up gambling, alcohol, smoking and any kind of unnatural highs over the past few years and am looking for a new compulsion - maybe I've found it in Twitter. I've been lucky enough to find spaces for some of my work and I'm hoping that one day I'll write a novel that's worthy of publication. Recently I've been more involved with writing my own pieces. I co-edited the Rue Bella magazine for 5 years or so and am mighty proud of that too. Second to them comes my involvement in writing and peripheral projects. I'm most happy with and most proud of my own family. I've been a primary school teacher for almost half of them, moving from mainstream to exceptional needs to additional support needs.

He thinks he’s sly, laying back in the seat of a car that can’t possibly be his, playing PI, and sucking at it. It hurts, stings, but only for a second and then. I intend to approach them from the side, to bring life back to the dead eyes bound to find mine, but as I get closer, no more than two spaces away, the inevitable sears my soul. The eyes trailing me shoot wide, and I’m lunged at, but I’m already too far gone. I pretend to go easily, but slip away, sliding on my feet and darting around the far side of the room. I’m suddenly spun, rushed toward the door and shoved through it. The body behind me grows rigid, the shadow to the right now creeping closer, a dark and haunting chill charging the air around us. It’s the last-ditch effort, the one that leads to the end, right here in this very spot. I’m stuck, frozen, knowing the move to follow before it’s even made. It’s a deep, cavernous sound that sends panic across the room and ice through my every vein. Someone’s scream roars around us, but I can’t say who it comes from. The fiercely pumping blood and heavy pounding heart should clue me in to what’s coming, but I ignore the warning, stuck in a nightmare of my own making. I try for a full, deep breath, but my lungs refuse my desperate plea. Tension lines my forehead, a heavy throbbing taking over not only my head, but my entire body. It is about the Lakota people and their experiences, how they lived their lives before the advent of the white man for most of the chapters in the book. Standing Bear's views on Indian affairs and his suggestions for the improvement of white-Indian relations are presented in the two closing chapters.Įven with this book being nearly 100 years old, it is still a powerful book and quite timely for today. Gilmore, curator of ethnology at the University of Michigan, and Warcaziwin, Standing Bear’s niece and secretary, Standing Bear sought to tell the white man “just how” they “lived as Lakotans.” Land of the Spotted Eagle is generously interspersed with personal reminiscences and anecdotes, including chapters on child rearing, social and political organization, family, religion, and manhood. In addition to describing the customs, manners, and traditions of the Teton Sioux, Standing Bear also offered general comments about the importance of Native cultures and values and the status of Indian peoples in American society. When Standing Bear returned to the Pine Ridge Sioux Reservation after sixteen years' absence, his dismay at the condition of his people may well have served as a catalyst for the writing of this book, first published in 1933.
