Pat Barker, Regeneration: Part Two (Penguin, 2008, p. 83).
[Part of a fictional conversation between Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon in which their ambivalent attitudes to the War are discussed; and how, in spite of the brutality each despises, neither would call himself a pacifist. This is Owen’s explanation. (This is the ninth book in my First World War-related reading series, “Goodbye to All That”.)]

LEWIS NIXON III September 30, 1918 - January 11, 1995
Grace Nixon in a letter to Dick and Ethel Winters, December 1990
"That guy never complains about anything. Always cheerful—thinks more of others than himself. He is one some kind of man."
Eulogy for Lewis Nixon given by Dick Winters, 1995
"Whenever Grace would talk to me on the telephone, or write me a letter or a Christmas card, the message was always the same. "Lewis is so brave; he never complains, he always has a smile for me whenever I come into his room — and that just makes it all worthwhile." I am sure those words are familiar to all of you here today."
gif set inspired by this iconic set, only i've used the just unearthed photos from Dick Winter's Lewis Nixon file.
