A French friend of mine just sent me the following scoop, FYI:

"In the City of Annouellin (Between Lille and Lens, at about 20 kilometers S-W of Lille) a new high school was inaugurated about two weeks ago. It has been given the name of a British pilot from the Royal Flying Corps who was shot down during WWI, Albert Ball."

Mighty thoughtful thing to do, eh? (A little Canuck lingo there).
