"Ernest Altounyan was born in England but his father was an Armenian doctor with a hospital in Aleppo. Ernest was educated at Rugby and Cambridge with the aim to join his father. Altounyan had known (T.E.)Lawrence for a long time, having first met him in his Carchemish days. He greatly admired Lawrence and also felt a strong emotional bond."
Don't recall hearing of a connection between the Altounyans and Lawrence (of Arabia) previously. Has there been anything published about it - in TARS publications or elsewhere ?
