@theinkbrain, though Owen did not make it back, as you rightly said, I believe Sassoon was sent home with a non-fatal wound, and lived right up until 1967. It was such a shame, since Owen only went back to the front when he found out Sassoon was going home, he felt he had to carry on reporting the truth.
gaves was in the royal welsh fusiliers survived the war and went on to write ;goodbye to all that' and much more, but sasoon and wilfrid owen and rupert brooks never made it back home.

He's only seen in silhouette, tied to a post in no man's land. You'd never know it was him if it wasn't in the credits.

Wilfred Owen died in the war but Sassoon didn't - Sassoon actually survived, he only died in 1967.
