\"Siegfried<\/p>\n

September is the time when we celebrate the acclaimed war poet Siegfried Sassoon.<\/h4>\n

Siegfried Sassoon was born 8th September 1886, and died in 1967, on September 1st. Sassoon was a talented poet, writer and soldier. He received the Military Cross<\/a> for bravery during the First World War.<\/p>\n

He wrote fervent pieces that spoke of compassion for his fellow soldiers, and his anger towards those he believed could have ended the war sooner but instead prolonged it.<\/p>\n

Sassoon continued to write for the rest of his life, publishing many important works such as Memoirs of a Fox-Hunting Man<\/a> and Memoirs of an Infantry Officer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sassoon was sent to Craiglockhart War Hospital<\/a> (Now our Craiglockhart campus) during World War One. Here he met Wilfred Owen<\/a> during his convalescence, and together they produced some of the finest war poetry ever written.<\/p>\n
