Of the crowd of officials who stuck so very faithfully to the fuo-itive Government there was not one O who took the trouble to look after these stores and munitions.
On arrival I telegraphed to the Govern- ment to enquire what was to be done with the British prisoners-of-war. The answer was: "You had better let them be where they are until the enemy force you to evac- uate, when you will leave them plenty of food, " This meant that there would be more D. S. O's or V. C's handed out, for the fir...st "Tommies" to arrive at the prisoners' camp would be hailed as deliverers, and half of them would be certain of distinctions.
I was also extremely dissatisfied with tbe way the prisoners had been lodged, and so would any officer in our fighting line have been had he seen their condition and accom- modation. But those who have never been in a fight and who had only performed the "heroic" duty of guarding prisoners-of-war, did not know what humanity meant to an enemy who had fallen into their hands.
