In my opinion, yes.
My son was honest and would have told me if he had met with someone.
I'm such an inquisitive person that when he went to Quebec City, for example, I asked him who he met with while he was there.
If I could say one more thing, when soldiers return home, a case report is usually drafted. That didn't happen in Frédéric's case. Montreal General Hospital only received part of his medical file. It's as if Frédéric fell through the cracks. That is the expression the army uses.
