An unusual adventure befell Lieut..
S. Smith Mclean, Australians. When
the men of his patrol were falling all
around him he dashed into a house to
attack the garrison. AS he mounted
the stairs he was hit by an enemy
bomb and knocked out, losing his re-

get him into a cellar, and for six days

eat but iron rations. Three nights he
attempted to recrosS the enemy front

eventually rescued by British troops.
