Their customs and dress are very peculiar, in fact, reminds me very much of the people of Holland. They wear wooden shoes and have a dialect all their own. French people from the more up-to-date parts of France have difficulty in speaking to and understanding them. The country is flat and marshy, and windmills like those of Holland can be seen. It is very pleasant in summer but in the winter I think it must be very cold, for already it is getting very cold at night and in the morning. I do not think we will be here long, though I do not know where we will go from here. Perhaps where the big guns roar and the bombs drop from the skies. Well, we have been anxious to go up front, and no doubt our chance will come some day. We have been doing some mighty important work back here in the S. O. S. but it is the nature of an American to want to be where the excitement is thickest." J. F. H. October 8, 1918 "This helmet was picked up on the morning of October 16th as we were returning to the rear from a convoy in the heart of the Argonne, near the village of Cheppy. The wearer who had fallen earlier in the day was an old soldier perhaps sixty-five years old and belonged to the 419th Division of the Saxon Bombardiers. More than a hundred German and American Troops lay dead within sight. "The probable cause of his death was high explosive, as he was torn up very badly. "In an area of two square miles many hundred of these could have been gathered. I took an interest in this one on account of its high polish for camouflage purposes, something new to us at that time." A. C. S. "We spent quite a different life from this in the English waters where we put in many monotonous months waiting for the Hun to come out. We were sorry he came out the way he did for we were just aching to exchange broadsides with him.
