Letters

Writing on his experience in France, T H Smith says : 

It may be useful in case any of the boys fancy the kilt. We were busy on one occasion making a dugout, and had a small winch for hauling out the sandbags of earth up a chute composed of rough boards. Jerry dropped one shell just at the opening, and six kilties did a dive down the chute, and have since wished they had enlisted in a trousered regiment.
