peror is quoted as saying:
1T is the most poignant grief Of my

earnest desire to take my place IN the
trenches and to deal such blows at our
enemies as my age and strength would
permit
Il could take my place with the

would leave my mark on the enemy.
But the inscrutable Almighty has
willed otherwise. Into my care has
been committed by divine destiny the
leadership of our country and it's
armies and its forces on land and sea.

and leading has been hard upon me
and realizing this 1 know that my life
must not be risked in the foremost line
