I quote from the opening chapter, when the men are if barracks, and are soon to embark for England. The author is a private, and the remarkg which he makes apply to his own unit; he says:-

At four the officera try to get the men in shape. More than half the bat- talion is drunk.. It takes hour to line the mea for parado outside the barracks. Men are hauled out of their bunka, and strapped into their equipment. They stare vacantly into the faces of those who jostle' them. Now, I would sak whether these remarke apply eclely to the unit in which he was a private, or whe ther the picture portrayed is typi cal of other units which comprised the Canadian Expeditionary Force on the eve of their departure for overseas? If Mr. Harrison saya that his description is typical of those gallant men who travelled thousands of miles to serve their King and country, then I would

In this chapter we read that in midsummer, 1918, the bat- talion, which was made up to battle strength, was out at rest. I nota that the unit is described by Cable Addresa:"""VICTORIA “ the author sometimes as a battalion, at another 53 B company!
