  28. ? “In a landmark article, Capt. Charles Myers of the Royal Army Medical Corps noted “the remarkably close similarity” of symptoms in three soldiers who had each been exposed to exploding shells: Case 1 had endured six or seven shells exploding around him; Case 2 had been buried under earth for 18 hours after a shell collapsed his trench; Case 3 had been blown off a pile of bricks 15 feet high. All three men exhibited symptoms of “reduced visual fields,” loss of smell and taste, and some loss of memory.” Caroline Alexander, The Shock of War, Smithsonian Magazine, Sept. 2010, http://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/the-shock-of-war-55376701/ (Jan. 28, 2014).

  29. ? Nov. 14, 1916 Dear Jessie & Stuart. Last night your letter of the 16th of October arrived and of course I was glad to get it. Letters are always welcome and especially in the trenches where they help to break the monotony of the routine…. The Germans just here behave themselves pretty well and that means less work for us. They watch our men very close and they try for them with their machine guns even at long range. Judging from the noise they make you would think about every second one of their men had a machine gun. They have hundreds of them. I do not think there are many men in the trenches opposite; but they are well supplied with M.Gs and am. And I guess it’s the same all along the line. …Write Soon againAffectionately Your brotherLeslie [McNaughton] Canada.com, Letters from Vimy: Part 3, April 4, 2007, 2010-2014, http://www.canada.com/nationalpost/story.html?id=5b1a40eb-0165-4bb9-9995-f5d8c0516211 (Jan. 28, 2014).
