Transcription: closed the shutters outside the windows to keep the heat out and hung wet sheets inside the open window casements to cool the room and bring me some relief. During the worst night they put me into their bed to lie between them. It was oppressively hot and sultry. I awoke from an uneasy sleep with a violent nosebleed. My headache had gone, my temperature was down, the crisis was over. Father and mother could heave a sigh of relief and for the first time in many nights get some sleep.  Foto   The school house in Hohenklingen, Else, Pauline, Friedrich Rutsch 4

Ok well I'm a Membership Secretary here but I was also asked to start a charity to commemorate the VADS and all nurses that were killed during the two Great Wars.  That's what we"re doing now.  The Nursing War Appeal covers the First World War and the Second World War and the VADs started before the First World War really. I didn't know that... Well I believe that you've really got to go back to Florence Nightingale and the Crimea War because, I made a note of the date of this because I'm not good on dates.  That happened in 1899.  She went out there - there were 38 nursing ladies, or ladies that knew a bit about nursing.  43 years later we had the Second World War and I think mainly nurses volunteered from Commonwealth countries like Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.  The women actually wanted to go and nurse and help out in the World War and Britain wasn't really keen to have them.  I'm not sure how it happened.  The Red Cross and St John's then formed hospital trains and ships that went out there to collect the wounded soldiers and on the way out they would take supplies and on the way back they'd bring back the injured.  Those trains and ships were staffed by nurses.  Most of the nurses then were trained by the Army.  The Red Cross did do a fair amount but if you wanted to find nurses, they were normally in the Army. There was a big centre there in Pimlico wasn't there? That's right.  My opinion is, I think it was the enormity of that situation that made the Government realise that the medical facilities you need and personnel you need for a standing Army is totally different to the amount of personnel you need during Wartime.  Nothing really changes.  They couldn't afford to keep that number when they weren't in a Wartime situation. I want to ask you about the club.  You said it has another name.

Transcription: Well having unburdened myself I'll proceed. I see the only thing I can do is come home & drive the car myself as you and Mother are sure to fight but the only drawback is that the Kaiser wants me here. 20 Apl. Dear Mother,            I am afraid that some time has elapsed since I last wrote yo you but we have been fairly busy here with a young battle going on. It was pretty hot for 48 hours but everything went splendidly & the cunning Hun got a moderately good thrashing, which is only a taste of what he is going to get. You have no idea of the noise during the attack, if you wanted to speak to anyone you had to shout at the top of your voice & sometimes even hit him to draw his attention to the fact that you were talking. We ourselves took no part in the actual attack but were holding the line about 1000 yards away. I'll tell you more about it when the papers do - anyhow it was a great succes though of course there was a price to pay and a fairly heavy one - yet it was worth it. Just think I have been out here six months now, yet i have never been in anything like it. At first, i will confess I was frightened but I had a big command - larger than before but commanding the same arm of the service (machine guns). So after the first flare I was too busy to be very frightened.   Well the Hun is still very restless so I must go round my guns. 2 Apl. Dear Dad,            As things seem to have resumed their normal conditions I have time to write to you - I shall give you a description of modern battle. All of us knew that there was a mine under the enemy's position (Hill 50) and that it was to be exploded that evening. So all day long there was a sort of restlessness amongst us and firing was continuous till about 6 p.m. when everything grew quiet. Not a round was fired from our trenches and few hundred men probably would be blown to eternity and one could not help praying for their souls - then half a minute - a quarter of a minute - the earth shoot took once - twice - three times, there was a rush in the air of falling trees and stones, a second's silence and then a terrible roar of rifles, machine guns, hand grenades, rifle grenades, trench mortars, bombs and cannon - the air was full of lead - everyone was firing as hard as he could & my machine guns going like fury. This lasted for nearly two hours - then a quiet & then 49

Hart.     NOW my dear Ramble, we are at the place appointed, and according to my promise, I'll tell you why I sent for you in such haste; there is the house, the precious caskett that contains the dearest jewel of my heart, my charming Lydia! to-morrow, her guardian doctor Hog, means to give her to the arms of my rival Scarecrow; but I design to carry her out of the reach of his power to night.   Ram.  How do you mean?  Is the lady appriz'd of your intention?   Hart.  'Tis by her own appointment I am here; you know Betty the little Scot's girl, she's in our interest; the moment the old fellow is gone to bed, she'll give us a signal from the window: I have appointed two or three friends to meet me in cafe of opposition, but you alone are true to the appointment.   Ram.  Never fear, we are sufficient, love will lend

Transcription: COINCIDENCE We were ordered to find a place to sleep and to be ready to move into action early the following morning. My pal and I luckily discovered a dug out which we shared. I had been at the front 18 months and had come through unscathed. I had a definite feeling, however, that the pending action would not be so kind to me and informed my pal of this saying "I shall be knocked out this time". As I always held a strange belief that I would survive the war, my presentiment was, naturally, to the effect that I would be wounded. On mustering, by sections, the following morning, we learned that we were to cross a dangerous strip of land, known as "Death Valley" and to make our way to a position in front of Trones Wood - The Somme. In addition to carrying the usual 300 rounds of ammunition, 2 mills bombs, 2 very lights, iron rations etc., I was saddled with two petrol tanks which contained water. Being more or less an old campaigner, I realised the value of these tins and on trudging away, felt myself in a strange dilemma, for I was convinced I would be put out of action. So I made up my mind not to take the usual precautions when crossing "Death Vally". If I have to be wounded, I had ruminated, why wait until you get into the teeth of things, it would be better for you and your pals if it happens nearer to the dressing station. Death Valley - a most appropriate name - was a suitable place, and a little carelessness on my part would do the trick. I was still possessed of my presentiment, and it was now impossible to throw the feeling off. I conjectured how long it would take to reach the dressing station from my present position. Some miles of winding communication trenches would have to be traversed, Death
