INSUFFICIENT LEANING

Is it true that a British soldier, Henry Tandey, spared the wounded Adolf Hitler in 1918?
Unclear. Three reference items recount the alleged 1918 encounter in which Henry Tandey reportedly declined to shoot a wounded German soldier said to be Adolf Hitler, but each hedges the identification as disputed or unproven, so the evidence only partially supports the claim.
