Here is the story OF how the 22l Ger,
mans were made prisoners, as told bv
Lieutenant BulSley.
During the time that the American
and British forces (this occurred the
first part OF October) were making
such successful attacks on the Hinden-
berg line. our company. the head
quarters company. was responsible for
the capturing OF 224 Germans.
After the Americans had been MAX
ing numerous attacks. most Of which
we're successful, word was passed
through the regiment that a great at
tack TO break the Hindenburg line
would be made. We in Headquarters
company were told to be ready for ac-
tion.
Finally, the orders came to ad-
vance. We were left in the rear, and
as the army advanced in front of us
We advanced in the same proportion.
After We had gone three miles We
came TO a complete halt.
Already hundreds OF prisoners had
been taken by our men, and they
were being moved to the rear quickly.
Then re-enforcements were called for
at the front. and we went.
"On the trip which, although a
short one, seemed like hundreds of
miles. we were fred upon by Ger
mans barricaded in a tunnel. They
had escaped from their army ana had
eluded the Americans, and for this
reason had not been captured. None

tinued on.
1--WE had only gone a short dis
tance when II was suggested we try
to capture them. The tunnel was
under a hill. 1t had two entrances
and the Germans were only guarding
one of them. Then we hiked for the
rear entrance.
"We entered it cautiously. and had
only gone about 100 yards, in almost
total darkness. when we came upon
the Germans. A captain was in
charge OF us and we started after

The second development was a let
