BESIDES THE MAN WHO FIGHTS
THERE IS THE WOMAN WHO WAITS, AND
IN HUMBLE TRIBUTE TO HER SILENT HEROISM
I DEDICATE THIS BOOK







PREFACEToC


This is my first book. It is also my last. But I have a record to makeand a duty to perform. I was five weeks on the firing line; four weeksmourned as dead; and three months a prisoner of war.

I have attempted to make a true record of all that happened. The namesalone are fictitious (all except that of Saniez), for those days weretoo full of stirring events which will long live in my memory to needthe aid of fiction. If I have dwelt at some length upon my experiencein Germany, it is with the hope that the information may be ofinterest to those who have relatives and friends still in the hands ofthe enemy and burn to know the truth.

I do not deplore the loss of my sight, for I can say in all sinceritythat I was never happier in my life than I am to-day.

G.N.
