Is he a candidate for prison or psychiat: ric treatment? Many Britons are hotly debating the case of Fusilier Patrick Lydon, | 26, sentenced last week to a year's | detention and dishonorable dis- | charge from the British Army for | "cowardice in the face of the en- emy." Lydon, a volunteer said to have the mental age of a 12-year-old. refused to take up his Hie as 6,000 Chinese attacked his sector of the .Korean front Nov. 4, 1951. The young soldier returned home to the waiting arms of military police after spending 18 months in a North Korean prisor camp with some of the comrades he let down. Since he was sentenced last Thursday, newspapers have becn showered with letters, the major- ity of them sympathizing with Ly- don. Newspaper editorials havi been for him. "He will live with his shame for the rest of his life." said the Sunday Pictorial. "Surely this is punishment enough." The public outcry, which may end on the floor of the House of | Commons, reéflects a change in mood over they ears.
