Radlein Obituary February 25 1945. Killed in December, 1944, on the Italian front, Edward Anthony Knight, Capt., R.A. (I) (Smale's, H, 1930-32) He was only at Radley for a short time, but those who knew him will remember him as a pleasant boy with a robust will of his own, who might later do very well. His intention, when he left, was to travel, and later to go into the City. He joined the Territorial Army and obtained his Commission just before the War. He was killed while serving with the R.A. on the Italian front.
