Killing Amid The Fog Of War / Harriet Shawcroft / Frederick Carter

Wilfred Owen’s infamously chilling poem, written about a gas attack in WW1, is still a stark reminder of the brutality of war over 100 years later. A small segment of Dulce et Decorum est reads, “Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots,But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind,Drunk with fatigue, deaf even to the hoots,Of gas-shells dropping softly behind”…Was the physical and mental trauma of such horrors enough to drive a young man to kill when he returned home from war?…*** LISTENER CAUTION IS ADVISED ***   This episode was researched and written by Rosanna Fitton.Edited by Joel Porter at Dot Dot Dot Productions.Illustrations and production direction also by Rosanna FittonNarration, script editing, additional audio editing and mixing by Benjamin Fitton. To get early ad-free access, including Season 1, sign up for They Walk Among PLUS, available from Patreon or Apple Podcasts.More information and episode references can be found on our website https://theywalkamonguspodcast.comMUSIC: Causality by ShimmerLord Of The Dead by CJ0 The Search by CJ0 The Last Straw by CJ Oliver Every Life Matters by Cody Martin Loaves & Fish by Cody Martin Fleet Street by Stephen Keech Gravity by Caleb Etheridge Distances by Salon Dijon Harvester by Wicked Cinema Infiltration by Wicked Cinema No Escape by Wicked Cinema Throughout History by Wicked Cinema SOCIAL MEDIA: https://linktr.ee/TheyWalkAmongUsSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/theywalkamongus.
