He notes other grounds of justification for the submission of When we charged the Hans and ruted the cargo to a Prize: Court, going to prove that Germany has made little or no distinc them in disorder (ho writes) you bet the tion between civilians and combatants in her Irish Guards are getting their own back conduct of the war by sea and land.
