War > Warfare

 

 

 

On This Day - July 15, 1916

 

From the Times Archive

 

The Battle of the Somme

has become synonymous with

the horrors of trench warfare.

In the midst of suffering,

however, there were humorous interludes.

 

A SECOND lieutenant in a Yorkshire battalion tells a story of a German dug-out and its occupants. The dug-out was in the first line of trenches taken by the officer’s platoon. The men then went forward to the next trench, and the officer, being hit, had to stay behind. The rest of the story may be told in his own words: - “After a bit I wriggled back to that Boche front line into a shallow sap. I was resting there when I saw a Boche officer come climbing out of that big dug-out we’d put the six bombs in. He was peering first one way and then the other, like a burglar. “Oh, you beauty!” I thought. A second later he was dead. I charged my breech again, and no sooner done than my next target pops up – a lieutenant. I aimed for his shoulder blades, but the old gun kicked a bit, and I got him through the head.

Then a private came up, with never a weapon of any sort in his hands, and the fear of God in his face. ‘You’re a Boche,’ I thought; ‘and you ought to be shot: but you’ve got nothing in your hands.’ “Here!” I shouted at him.

We went along a passage, turned to the left into a regular boudoir. Dug-out! Why there was Turkey carpet on the floor, and beautiful tapestry curtains to the bunks. There were three cases of beer. There were about a hundred eggs; two cut hams; boxes of cigars; one case of champagne; cakes; and chocolates. I got the batman to help me back to daylight. There wasn’t a living soul in the trench, so I got the batman to take me pick-a-back while I stuck to my rifle.”
