Lewis's claim has only recently been authenticated. In World War I a number of young boys joined up to serve as soldiers before they were eighteen, the legal age to serve in the army. It was previously reported that the youngest British soldier was an unnamed boy, also twelve, sent home from France in 1917 with other underage boys from various regiments. ==George Maher== George Maher (20 May 1903 – ''c.''1999〔Richard van Emden; Steve Humphries, ''Veterans: the last survivors of the Great War'',Pen & Sword Military (Kindle version) ISBN 9781848845602.〕) was only thirteen when he lied to a recruiting officer by claiming he was eighteen and was allowed to join up with the 2nd Battalion King's Own Royal Lancaster Regiment. Maher was sent to the front lines and his actual age was not found out until he began crying during heavy shelling and was taken before an officer of his regiment to reveal his young age. George said he was then locked in a train with a number of other young boys who had all lied to join up as well. Maher said "The youngest was twelve years old. A little nuggety bloke he was, too. We joked that the other soldiers would have had to have lifted him up to see over the trenches." Maher's story was first reported in Richard van Emden's 1998 book ''Veterans: the last survivors of the Great War''〔Richard van Emden; Steve Humphries, ''Veterans: the last survivors of the Great War'', Leo Cooper, 1998, ISBN 085052640X.〕 and later featured in ''Last Voices of World War 1'', a 2009 television documentary. The boy Maher met was formerly reported as the youngest British soldier in World War I, but the claim has never been authenticated.〔Julie Henry, "(Boy, 12, was 'youngest British soldier in First World War' )", ''Daily Telegraph'', 31 October 2009.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Youngest British soldiers in World War I」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
