here ever since. They have not slept
in q bed for months. They've lived
through this vicious winter sleeping
outdoors on the ground.
They haven't been paid in three
months. They have been ON British
rations most of the time, and Brit
ish rations, though good, get mighty
tiresome.
They never take off their clothes
at night, except their shoes. They
don't get bath oftener than once
a month. One small detachment &C
quired lice and had to be fumigated
but all the rest have escaped so far.
They move so frequently they don't
attempt to put in many home
touches, as the men do at the more
permanent camps toward the rear.
Very few Of the front-line troops
have ever had any leave. They never
go to town for an evenings fun.
They work all the time.
Nobody keeps track Of the
days or weeks. I'll wager that
80 per cent of our frontline
troops never know when Sunday

Furthermore, the old traditional
differences between day and night
nave almost ceased to exist. Night
time no longer necessarily means
rest, nor daytime work. Often its
just reversed. The bulk of our con-
voying Of supplies and shifting of
troops is done at night. The soldiers
are accustomed to travelling all
night, sometimes three or four
nights in a row. Irregularities of
sleep becomes normal. One soldier
told me he once went three days
and nights without sleep.
You see men sleeping everywhere,
anytime. The other day 1 saw a
soldier asleep in blankets under an
olive tree at two in the afternoon.

One evening he and another Off

which was apparently empty. To be
on the safe side he called out
Who's there?" before going in. The
answer came back:

said he didn't give damn. They
started to throw their blankets
down, and the captain said:
Look out for that man over
there"
There was a dead soldier lying in
Ia corner.
The captain was cooking his sup
per and preparing to stay all night
alone in that same room. The flood
and fury of death about him that
day had left him utterly indifferent
both to the companionship Of the
living and the presence of the dead.
The other incident was just the
opposite. Another captain happened
to be standing beside Bessman. 1t
was just at dusk and they were Oh

ing down. The captain looked to the
far horizon and said, sort Of TO HIM
self:
You fight all day here in the
desert and what's the end Of IL
all? Night just closes down over
you and chokes you"
A little later Bosnian got out
partly filled bottle of gin he had
with him and asked this same SEN
sitive captain if he'd like a drink.
The captain didn't even reach out
his hand. He simply answered:
Have you got enough for my
men, too?"
He wouldn't take a drink himself
unless the enlisted men under him
could have some.
AL officers are not like that, but
the battlefield does produce a
brotherhood. The common bond Of
death draws humans toward each

rank.
