which broke the peace of a

with not much more damage
than could be fixed by a village

It was a stunning show OF
strategy, skill, and cool cour-

And as we stand around now,
wolfing ham sandwiches and

this bunch of veterans and for
the determined youngsters who
took the hail of steel and shells
as If they were in a SNOWFALL
