, In addition To these men, We had
patrols and scouts out In mo Mans

with orders to gain any information
possible which might be Of value to
battalion, brigade, division or general
headquarters. They reported on the
condition Of the Germans barbed wire,
the location OF machine guns and 9TH
q little things like that which might
be Of interest to some commanding
officer 20 miles back. Also they were
ordered to make every effort to cap
ture any of the sneny's scouts or pa
trolls, so that we could get information
from them. One Of the interesting
moments In this work came when
star shell caught you out in an open
spot. II you moved you were gone.
I've seen men stand on one foot for
the 30 seconds during which a star
shell will burn. Then when scouts or
patrols met in mo Mans Land" they
always had to fight 1t out with bayo-
nets. One single shot would be the
signal for artillery fire and would mean
the almost instant humiliation Of the
men on both sides of the fight. Under
the necessities Of this war many Of
our men have been killed by our own
shell fire.
