Exaggerated Report
BEARWOOD, England (UPI)
— World War I veteran Thom-
as Landreth, 71, was a bit sur-
prised when he read in a ma-
gazine article about his "he-
| roic death" during the battle of
St. Quentin in 1917. He wrote
to the editors of the Worches-
ershire Regimental Magazine
asking them "to resurrect me."
The tradition of dignity that has been ours for
many years is one built up through consistent
respect for the wishes of those we serve.
