the sunshine and utter silence. A amateur who wanders in this vacuum at the rear of a battle has a terrible sense qf loneliness. Everything is dead—the men, the machines, the animals—and you alone are left alive. One afternoon we drove In our jeep into a country like that. The rural villages of gray stone were demolished—heartbreaking heaps of still smoking rubble, We drove -into the tiny town of La Detinais, a sweet old stone village at the “T” of two gravel roads, a rural village in rolling country, a village of not more than 50 buildings. There was not & whole building left. ” » ”

Ditches Full of Dead

Rubble and broken wires still littered the streets. Blackish graystone walls with no roofs still smoldered inside. Dead men still

the flowers, and

lay in the street, helmets and,

broken rifles askew around them. There was not a soul nor a sound in town; the village was lifeless. We stopped and pondered our - way, and with trepidation we drove on out of town, We drove for a quarter of a mile or so. The ditches were full of dead men. We drove around one with- _ out a head or.arms or legs. We stared, and couldn't say anything about it to each other. We asked the driver to go very slowly, for there was an uncer tainty in all the silence. There was no live human, no sign of movement anywhere. - Seeing no one, hearing nothing, I became fearful of going on into the unknown. So we stopped. Just a few feet ahead of us was 8 brick-red American tank, still smoking, and with {td® turret knocked off: Near it was a Gers man horse-drawn ammunition cart, upside down. In the road beside them was a shell crater, ” ” -

Seek Our Dead

To our left lay two smashed airplanes in adjoining fields. Neither of them was more than 30 yards from the road. The hedge was low and we could see over. They weré both British fighter planes. One lay right side up, the other lay on its back. We were just ready to tum around and go back, when I spied a lone soldier at the far side of the field. He was standing there looking across the field at us like an Indian in a picture. I waved and he waved back. We walked toward each other. Me turned out to be a second lieutenant—Ed Sasson of * Los Angeles. He is a graves registration officer for his armored division, and he was out scouring the fields, locating the bodies of dead Americans. Ce He was glad to see somebody, for it is a lonely job catering to the dead. ’ As we stood there talking in the lonely field a soldier in coveralls, with a rifle slung over his shoulder, ran up breathlessly, and almost shouted: ’ “Hey, there's a man alive in one of those planes across the road! He's been trapped there for days!” ‘We stopped right in the middle of a sentence and began to run. We hopped the hedgerow, and ducked under the wing of the upside-down plane. And there, in the next hour, came the climax to what certainly was one of the really great demonstrations of courage in this war.

SCALDED ANTS?

Glimpse of Tankmen Caught In Serenade of Shelling

Proves Unbearable. (Coritinued From Page One)

‘ ye artillery, our long toms, our 135 howitzers, and even our mortars— the whole awful weight of that American artillery which the enemy armor and infantry fear as the deadliest weapon of this war—were trained on every square inch of ground between us.and the northern ja wof the at Trun. Imagine what it is like to hear the crack of a battery behind you, the sream of shells overhead, and then to see, seconds before the report of the. impact reaches your ears, the jagged tongues and spurts of fire and then the seething cauldron of violent orange-red flame which a tank becomes before it is heavily hit by shells.

Every Rank Represented

We saw that from the hillside. Some of us stood, some sat—strung out in a long row behind a low hedge fringing the hilltop. Those who sat looked out through great gaps torn in the hedge by earlier shellfire. There must have been a couple of hundred watchers there. Every rank was represented, from general to G. I. ° a “The hilltop had itself. been at--tacked at point blank range a few hours earlier by a small convoy of four enemy tanks which somehow had sneaked into the opposite énd of the small village and had charged up the slope in a frenzied search for escape. The blackened ruins of these extinct monsters lay a few yards away. where they had been knocked out by our own bazooka men and antitank grenadiers.

Company Wiped Out | There had also bem, with the preceding 24 hours, a sudden excursion into the area by an enemy heavy machinegun company, which before it was exterminated by the defenders had pinned down several of the guncrews in ditches and foxholes. : This far inside the gap, even at this late stage, such things are apt to happen at any moment. Adding to the general hellishness of the atmosphere was the stink of 'nearby dead cattle and horses, and i the sight of dead men. . . There was not a whole house left standing in the little village, which looked like all the little villages used to look which got caught in the path of this war back in its static hedgerow days. } Most of these hardbitten Americans, had been through much hell themselves in order to achieve this situation, and now and then they. exclaimed exultantly as a new hit was scored. But I do not think many really enjoyed the spectacle, Naked Eye View. It was all right while you viewed it only with the naked eye and as each new smoke column went up you heard someone announce that this was an ammunition train, or a section of horse-drawn artillery — or a new fire in the convoy reported on all sides as a “thousand trucks, stalled bumber to bumper.” But when you put your eye to powerful artillery glasses which brought the whole scene as close as a football game Viewed from ‘a seat on the 50-yard line, it was unbeatable, This glimpse was enough for me: Three tanks darting suddenly from the woods in panic — apparently having been flushed like so. many quail by the serenade- of shelling hurled ‘intn their section of the forest as a mere experiment. The first tank was hit almost at once. - It exploded. . As soon as the smoke began to lift frenzied, agonized figures of running, crouching men, who must have been the crews of the other tanks were visible, darting around in crazy circles like a colony of ants on whom bot water has been poured.

Some Disappear Some of them seemed to drop to the ground and the others disappeared, under the great cloud of white phosporous from our longrange flamethrowers. “Why are those damned fools down there suffering all this torture? Why don't they surrender?” I asked Lt. John Cotter, the lieutenant who had let me look through his glasses. But the young Bronx, N. Y. lieutenant had no better answer to the riddle than did his

Already ARP workers, Bobbies, American G. 1's sailors and Red Cross workers were arriving. : ¢ privates, corporals and sergeants drove jeeps up over piles of glass, bricks and building stones into the building's entrance as police roped off the area and ambulances and fire engines drew up. : Stumbling through the doorway, came a father carrying his 4 or 5 year old daughter in his arms.
