Inasmuch as both Keaton and Edward Sedgwick the director had served in the world War, they were familiar with acual trench atmos phere and made it a point to see that every detail of army life a depicted in the bomedy was qu thentic. Hence, army authorities wors approached and Arrange ments made for the loan of the necessary equipment and neces sories, which included tents, shells,
