A few hundred yards back on
the beach is a high bluff. UP there
we had a tent hospital. and barb
ed-wire enclosure for prisoners OF
war. From up there you could see
far UP and down the beach, in a
spectacular crow'S-neSt view, and
far cut TO sea.
And stancing out there on the
water beyond all this WTeckage was
the greatest armada man has ever
seen. You simply could not believe
the gigantic collection of ships that
lay out there waiting to unload.
VAST SEA OF SHIPS
Looking from the bluff, it lay
thick and clear TO the far horizon
of the sea and on beyond. and it
spread out TO the sides and was
miles wide. It's utter enormtty would
move the hardest man.
AS I stood up there I noticed
group of freshly taken German
prisoners standing nearby. They had
not yet been put in the prison cage.
They were just standing there. a

ing them with tommy guns.
The prisoners too were looking out
10 sea the same bit of sea that
for months and years had been SO
safely empty before their gaze. Now
they stood staring almost as If in
trance.
They didn't say a word to each
other. They didn't need TO. The
expression on their faces was some
thing forever unforgettable. In IT
was the final Mortified acceptance
of their doom.
If only all Germany could have
had the rich experience of stand
ing on the bluff and looking out
across the water and seeing what
their compatriots saw.
