was in the thick OF the fight all the
way through. Cant begin to tell
even If was there. for 1t is absolute
ly impossible for ono to describe
the things that happen in one Of
these modern battles. However, /
am proud to say that my regiment
and company won the highest praise,

one OF the best-known in France.

the second day Of the drive, but was
