Col Jolys is the "hero of many wars", presumably the little colonial wars of AR’s childhood.

I think the Boer or South African War was not so small?

Is the Aunt Helen, C.F.C.A Plus 100. A1, to whom PM is dedicated, the same fictional Aunt Helen mentioned in SW, or a real aunt of AR? Or a real aunt who inspired the naming of the fictional one?

It would not be the only book in the series to be dedicated to a character. PD is dedicated to the mothers of the Ss and As.
