The Screaming Soldier

"The Screaming Soldier" was one of two ghostly apparitions who "haunted" the HQ of Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart's military organisation. 
The Screaming Soldier appeared as a uniformed Private who would pop into existence screaming in pain, then burst into flames and disappear again. Like the Solitary Egyptian, the Screaming Soldier was actually a case of misplacement, a few seconds in the life of an ordinary person which had become separated from his normal time-stream and repeated across history over and over again. The Brigadier never found a way to stop the two misplacements from continuing to appear, and decided that they were more useful than not, as their presence at HQ made sure that every new recruit was well-acquainted with living and working side-by-side with the supernatural.
