The artillery was still firing furiously, but the enemy’sbarrage [bombardment] had ceased very suddenly about 10:00 a.m. and now only occasional shells from long-range rifles would explode in the vicinity. The weather was gloomyand the moist air chilled one to the bones. Yet it was with that meticulous [methodical] care that is characteristic of worn-out men, that we prepared our foxholes, carrying boards and iron sheeting from abandoned machine-gunners’ dugouts in order to make our “houses” as comfortable as possible, even though only for one night. . . .Source: William L.
