Speaking of commanders who died in that mythical war, I also found Ogilvie and Stenbok.
For now, I will argue in favor of executing Mr. Thur. The vote given on a whim at the very beginning of the day, the hasty attempt to solve the clues caused only by the threat hanging over his head, the generally suspicious behavior, and the fact that he has a chance of being blocked by the mafia, seem to me to be sufficient arguments for this. At least for now.
