When it rains we are nearly
swamped. I find a lot more
faces missing in our ranks &
these boys were killed the
day after I left the line for
the hospital. On my way
back I had to cross 3
bridges that were mined.
Blood poison has developed
in my left arm owing to
the barbed wire gash I got
at the front.

some.
