Yesterday was the most peculiar day of

the war. No firing at all. what’s up.

The white flag goes up on both sides for

to enable Red cross to bring in the wounded

One can pop his head over the trenches

safely for first time. The strang-

est sight of all is to see all the

Turks lined up on top of their

trenches walking about as though

no war was on at all. Also our own

some talking with Turks in groups

& smoking together. Turks walk

ing about on top of ridge which

commands view of the whole of

our valley seemed almost uncanny

after our artillery have been

shelling for weeks.







A VIEW TAKEN ON THE TOP OF THE TRENCHES AT ANZAC,

(PROBABLY ON THE DAY OF THE ARMISTICE IN 1915-05.)
