our real position was to the right of
where the artillery was, and that there
were three lines Of trenches with
French infantry in them. So the

would have to wipe out our men, and
if they did not, the Turks would. At
first l was glad l had come out, but
then remembered what the artillery
officer had said and figured I would
have to go back and stay with them
or bring them back. Either way there
was not one chance in hundred that
any of us woald make it. Because
