<title>Lewis Valender BRAIN Great War veteran?</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I found another possible Great War veteran in my research.  Would anyone know if Lewis Valender BRAIN was a Great War veteran?  There is a Lewis Brain in the Glos. Regiment.  I can't say for sure if it's the same man.  Thanks.</p>
