Wilfred Owen died on November 4th 1918 (i.e. just a week before Armistice) aged 25. He was shot in the back of the head whilst helping the men in his platoon cross the Sambre Oise canal. His parents Tom and Susan Owen received the telegram to say he had been killed after the Armistice had been signed, although Wilfred's brother Harold would later claim he had known all along that Wilfred was dead, owing to his seeing a ghostly apparition of Wilfred in uniform at around the time he was killed.
