someone-or-other's

Updated: May 21, 2025

Had I fixed an earlier date for my exploit the end of it would most probably have been a battered second-lieutenant's cap and a rusty revolver hanging up in the ingle-nook at Herr Someone-or-other's country home in East Prussia. As it was, I was able to walk out and return with the rifle unmolested. When we left the trenches to "go out" this time I took the rifle along with me.
