How Does a Soldier Feel in a
Life and Death Crisis?
A Close Up of the War

Newspapers and magazines treat the war along broad. general
Inns hey speak of nations and armies. But these stories
tell You about the most daring, au1aci0us and heroic deeds of
MEN individuals They tell of exploits which, even now
yu think never could happen. No professional author in
the history Of literature could tell such stories, for no mans
Imagination could think them up. Yet each, of these stories is
trut-and so startling, that the mind simply stands agape at
wonder They would thrill a man with blood as cold as q Ash.
