Sergeant McClintock, an American
boy of Lexington Ky„ has seen service
in France, tcat decorated for bravery,
icoundcd and invalided home. Be is
telling hit story, a thrilling one, and
this is the fifth artielc of the series. In
the preceding ones he described how he
reached the front, fighting in Belgium,
and then the great preparations for the
Somine battle. In this installment he
tells of conditions and describes first
hand the fighting in that greatest of all
battles.
OL'U high command apparently
meant to make a sure thing of
the general assault upon the Re
glna trencli. In which *ve were to par
ticipate. Three times the order to "go
over the top" was coi|iitermanded. The
assault was first planned for Oct 19.
Then the date was changed to the 20th.
Finally, lit 12:10 neon of Oct. 21, we
went. It was the first general assault
we had taken part In. and we were In
It Soemed Almost Certain Death to
Start Over In Daylight.
a highly nervous state. I'll admit
that
It seemed almost certain death to
start over In broad daylight, yet, as
It turned out. the crossing of No Man's
Land was accomplished rather more
easily than in our night raids. Our
battalion was on the extreme right of
the line, and that added materially to
our difficulties, first by compelling us
to advance through mud so deep that
swnc of our men sank to their hips In
It and. second, by giving us the hottest
Httle spot in France to hold later.
I was in charge of the second
"wave." or assault line. This Is called
the "mopping up" wave, because the
business of the men composing it Is
thoroughly to bomb out a position
crossed by the first wave, to capture
or kill all of the enemy remaining and
to put the trench In a condition to be
defended against a counterattack by
reversing the fire steps and throwing
up parapets.
Our artillery had given the Germans
such a battering and the curtain fire
which our guns dropped just thirty to
forty yards ahead of us was so pow
erful that we lost comparatively few
men going over—only those who were
knocked down by shells which the Ger
mans landed among us through our
barrage. They never caught us with
their machine gnn sweeping until we
neared their trenches. Then a good
many of our men began to drop, but
we were In their front trench before
they could cut us up anywhere near
completely. Going over I was struck
by shell fragments on the hand and
leg. but the wounds were not severe
enough to stop me. In fact, I did not
know that 1 bad been wounded until
I felt blood running into my Bhoa
Then I discovered the cut In my leg.
but saw that It was quite shallow and
that no artery of Importance had been
damaged. So I went on.
I had the familiar feeling of nervous
ness and physical shrinking and nausea
at the beginning of this fight, but by
the time we were halfway across No
Man's Land I had my nerve back.
After I had been hit I reibembw Mat
ing relieved that I hudn't been hart
enough to keep me from going oa wtSii
the men. I'm not trying to make Ay
self out a hero. I'm Just trying to t*H
you bow un ordinary man'* sited
works under the stress of fighting and
the danger of sudden death. 4. Thar*
are some queer things in the psycholo
gy of battle. For instance, when we
had got Into the German trench sad
were holding It against the. moat
vigorous counterattacks the thought
which was persistently uppermost tfl
my mind was that I hud lost the Ad
dress of a girl In London along with
some papers which 1 had thrown away
Just before We started over aiid which
I should certainly never be able to find
again. 1 •
Hold Rcgina Trench at Lfttt
The ltcffliui trench had been taken |
and lost three times by the British.
We took It that day and held It. Wa
went into action with 1,500 men of all
ranks and caine out with COO.
I have said that because we were on
the extreme right of the line we had
the hottest little spot In France to
hold for awhile. Vou see, we had to
Institute a double defensive, as we
had the Germans 011 our front and on
our flank, the whole length oX the
trench to the right of us being still
held by the Germans. There we had
to form a "block," massing our bomb
ers behind a barricade which was oflly
fifteen yards from the barricade be
hind which the Germans were fighting.
Our think and the German tlnnk were
in contact as tiery as that of two lire
wire ends. And meanwhile the Frltees
tried to rush us on our front with nine
separate counterattacks. Only one of ,
them got up close to us, and we went
out and stopped that with the bayonet.
Behind our block barricade there was
the nearest approach to au actual fight
ing hell that 1 bad seeu.
And yet a man who was In the mldat
of it from beginning to end came out
without a scratch. He was a tall chap
named Hunter. For twenty-four houi-a,
without Interruption, he threw German
"eggshell" bombs from a position at
the center of our barricade. He neyer
stopped except to light a cigarette or
yell for some one to bring him more
bombs from Fritz's captured store
house. He projected a regular curtain
of fire of his own. I've no doubt the
Germans reported he was a couple of
platoons, working In alternate reliefa.
ne was awarueu me u. u. ai. ior uo
services In that fight, and, though, as
I said, he was unwonhded. half the
men nround him were killed, and his
nerves finished in such condition that
he had to be sent back to England.
The Big Blunder and What It Co«t
One of the great tragedies of the war
resulted from a bit of careleasneea1
wheu a couple of days later the effort
was made to extend our grip beyond
the 8i>ot which wo took In that first
fight. Plans bad been made for the
Forty-fourth battalion of the Tenth
Canadian brigade to take by assault
the trench eectlou extending to tbe
right from the point where we had M
tabllshed the "block" on our flank. Tt»e
hour for the attack had been fixed.
Then headquarters sent out a counter
manding order. Something wasn^
quite ready.
The orders were sent by ruhnera, aa
all confidential orders must be. Tele
phones are of no avail any more, as
both our people and the Germans hare
an apparatus which needs only to be
attached to a metal spike In the ground
to "pick up" every telephone message
within a radius of three tidies. When
telephones aire used for anything Im
portant messages are sent la Code.
But for any vitally Important commu
nication which might cost serious
losses. If misunderstood, old style run
ners are used, Just as they were In the
days when the field telephone was un
heard of. It Is the rule to dispatch two
or three runners by different routes so
that one at least Will be certain to ar
rive., In the case of the countermand
ing of the order for the Fourty-foarth
battalion to assault the German posi
tion on our flank some officer at head
quarters thought that onq messenger
to the lieutenant colonel commanding
the Forty-fourth would be sufficient
The messenger was killed by a chance
shot, and his message was undelivered.
The Forty-fourth, In Ignorance of fie
change of plan, "went over." There
was no barrage fire to protect then*
and their valiant effort wag simply a
wholesale suicide. Six hundred out oi
SOO men were on the ground In two
and a half minutes. The battaHoa was
simply wiped out. Several Officer*
were court martlaled as a result of
this terrible blunder.
We had gone Into the German
trenches at a little after noon on Sat
urday. On Sunday night at about 10
o'clock wo were relieved. The relief
force had to come in overland, find
they bad a good many casualties en
ttati. TOajr ftwftid tfs as eottfortable
AS bogs In a rug except (or the Infer
nal and continuous bombing at our
flattS barricade. The German* Sad
concluded that It was useless kijr to
drive us out. About one-fourth of the
GOO of us who v.eie still ou their feet
were holding the sentry posts, and the
remainder of the 000 were having
banquets In the German dugouts, which
were stocked ap like delicatessen shops
with sausages, flue canned foods, cham
pagne and beer. If we bad only bad
a few lacHda with Da we could have
bad a real party.
I got so happily Interested la the
spread In oar particular dugout that I
forgot about my wound until some one
rvmln'dftd me that order* required me
to bant up a dressing station and get
an anti-tetanus injection. The Tom
mies like to take a German trench, be
cause if the PriUee bare to more
quickly, m they usually do, we always
find sausage, beer and champagne, a
welcome change from bally beef. I
eoald uerer learn to like their bread, i
