He says:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are getting plenty of cigarettes and tobacco now, but at one time we could not get a smoke at all, and I was longing for one. We have had a lot of hard fighting, but, thank God, I am still alive and well, although we never know the minute. I have been hit four times with shrapnel shell, one piece knocked a hole in my boot.<\/p>\n<p>Our regiment has taken part in all the leading battles; we have ; we have always been in the thick of it. I have lost nearly all my chums, and we have lost some of our officers, whom we all like.<\/p>\n<p>Our officers have shown great bravery, but, thank God, we can still keep up the reputation of our forefathers, and I am sure a gamer lot of lads never went into battle.<\/p>\n<p>It is pitiful to see the poor people here, who are sometimes amongst the shot and shell, and driven from their houses.\u00a0It is a funny thing, but most of our great battles take place on Sundays. We have a lot of hardships to endure, such as long marches and digging trenches, and sometimes laying in dirty, muddy trenches for a week&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><em>Published:<\/em> November 1914 and December 1914<\/p>\n<p>Please use the comments box below if you can provide more information about this\u00a0person.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Charles Rummery Rank:\u00a0Private Regiment:\u00a0King&#8217;s Own Scottish Borderers Parents: Mr William &amp; Caroline Rummery (nee Blackford) Grandmother:\u00a0Mrs\u00a0Rummery Address:\u00a02 Albion Street, Halton, Hastings Other Info:\u00a0At the Front.
