The end Of the original long,
long trail awinding." To reach
this delectable spot the soldier
first had to be landed at Liverpool,
Bristol, Cardiff or some other Eng
fish port and railroaded to South
ampton. There he was sent to a
camp called the Commons Camp.
He received little or no food during
this time. The English were also
very apt to call the attention of
the Yank to the fact, that they,
the English, had already won the
war so that they, the Yanks might

England while another raised hobb
at Southampton over some little
misunderstanding like the above.
Well from the Commons Camp or
some of the other camps around
Southampton the soldier was hiked
to the pier. Here couple fast old
tubs were waiting to carry the
crowd through the minefelds to
LeHavre. Men were crowded

aboard so that there was scarcely
room to sit down let alone lay
down. Around nine o'clock in the
evening they showed off for France.
The trip through the minefelds
was a sensation that was a lasting
one. Surrounded by a half dozen
destroyers the transport threaded
its way on its zig-zag course
through the worst U-boat district
in the seven seas. Around two
o'clock you arrived in LeHavre.
You might be given a crust of
bread and a little cheese to nibble
on for breakfast and again you
might not; it all depended on the
weather conditions or the condi-

and was feeling woOzy, as apt as

landed at LeI1avre that climb up
that hill is still nightmare. From
the time that you left the pier you
went steadily uphill. Finally you
went almost straightup. The road
staggered up the fact of the cliff
and you wobbled up the face of the
road. Having been seasick all the

Channel, your backbone was about
as resistant as rubber, with hun
dled pound pack straddle your
shoulders, you made your way up
the ascent. At the rest camp at
the summit you received lots Of
surprises but no rest They might
take you out on road work. They
might drill you a little bit, but no
rest, just unrest At night you re-
tired to a little tent with fifteen
other men. You slept with your
feet to the pole in the center. If
you turned over in the night, you
had to stand up to do it. Then
when you went to lay down again
your place was gone; the men on
each side had filled it UP just like
air filling a vacuum. And the eats.
The mess was run by the English.
They served tea, with that state
ment we will let the subject of eats
rest. This camp nevertheless took
care Of over a quarter of the A. E.

through this misery during the du-
ration Of the war. Most Of them
lived through it. It was their first
taste Of what was to come.
