Description

Léon Trulin was 18 when he signed up to serve the British. From June 1915, he and a group of friends - the youngest was 15, the eldest barely 18 - gathered intelligence on the German occupiers in Belgium and the North of France. Arrested near Antwerp, Trulin was shot on November 8 of the same year, in the ditches of the Lille Citadel.
