That reminded me, Dave, of a something told to me by an old friend whose word I would never doubt.

Before her husband went off to France in 1944 she had a dream of him getting into danger at a crossroads with a broken sign and a pond and so warned him of this.

He was subsequently killed and the sergeant in his platoon, who was wounded, described to her the spot as described above.

As I said, she wouldn't make things up.
