Wilfred Owen

edit

I have raised citation need against statement Wilfred Owen completed his WWI army training at Park Hall Camp, Oswestry - is it supported by any biographies or in guide literature? The wikipedia article on Owen only says of his military training with the Artists' Rifles that he was based at Hare Hall Camp in Essex for seven months in 1915.Cloptonson (talk) 18:08, 3 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
