cathidaw	Posted: Sun May 03, 2015 7:48 pm I can't believe that lex or rebbonk have not heard of Rupert Brooke-you are both so knowledgeable. Unfortunately he died early in 1915 from an infected mosquito bite, on his way to Gallipoli.. his war poems are quite a romantic idea of war.I often wonder what he would have written if he had lived to see the real horrors of the war. I didn't know he was born in Rugby. I can't believe that lex or rebbonk have not heard of Rupert Brooke-you are both so knowledgeable.
