Justin,

We can test that.

I have some copies of list of casualties from the NA. We can compare those lists against the names in the paper and compare the two.

It should make for an interesting comparison.

Best wishes

Does not look to be very good accommodation, you really can't blame anyone for wanting to leave! :)

The age of the guards may have been a contributing factor as were those waist-high railings!
