"Saki" Remembered at Thiepval

Comments by Brian Pohanka - September 13, 2000

Saki's gravesiteHere is my tribute to H.H. Munro, who wrote under the name "Saki" wonderful, witty little short stories. He was killed on the Somme. His name is on the Thiepval Memorial to the Missing -- I put a photo of him on the altar there -- note the offerings of poppies and so forth.
