During the salient, we took some German's POW, three or four, you know. You have to be very careful, you know, people are sometimes very, not frightened, but “Bloody Germans, kill them.” Sort of.

You don't do that because in one hour, we were there a few hours, in one hour, well perhaps in two hours, that post where I was in, changed hands three times, eventually, the Germans did come out prisoners but I'm glad nobody shot at them or we would not have survived it either. So there you are, you know, that's how life goes.
