Behind British Lines in France, <
Auk. 12.?Life in active service is i
not entirely composed, as some people
are inclined to imagine. of flirht
ihg, of sitting In trenches, of resting
In billets, of marching, eating and
sleeping. It is true that the maiu 1
activities of the soldier are comprised
in the above list, but there are i
countless other duties which ho Is
called upon to perform?duties 1
which might best be called "odd 1
jobs," and some of which are dis- :
tinctly odd. *
The days of camp followers, who t
used to perform the more mental
tasks of the battle zone, are gone _
never to return. Tire soldier must "
v now be his o^n hewer of wood and ( '
drawer of water. He must attend 1,1
fir
himself to all the little details of life.'
^ the cleaning- of his quarters, the digI
? King of trenches, the carrying of his
[ Broken trenched must be
mended,~fresh trenches dug. and
dugouts built. All these odd jobs. j
j which the Soldier is^called upon to
? <lo In wlAt would otherwise be his
t 1!)
spare t*hie, he slims up under the
comprehensive heading of "fatigue."!
Fatigue duty, as the names implies,
is not often a light or restful ^ ^
form of* occupation. It may involve ^
^ a long march with a ?;nrii n?
tho end of it. !
^ cit
* The first men to be picked for a
'Is
fatigue party are the defaulters,
i up'
* in^n guilty of minor delinquencies j ^
i* such as the possession ??f a rusty ..
?I o
rifle or an unshaven chin at the
morning parade. It follows that the
term "fatigue" has fallen somewhat
into disrepute, for it has come to be
oa c
associated, at least in the civilian
mind, with an idea of punishment. ,
, . . Ian
In consequence, an attempt has been (
^. made to differentiate between extra
fc work which is definitely allotted as a
the
r' form of punishment, and extra work
which is included in the duties of J ^
everv soldier, be his character ever.
* 1!
so stainless. For this purpose a new |
ph rase has been introduced. Thisl
1 new phrase is "working party.'* Men'
are elected for working parties in
turn, so that everyone contributes a
share. ]
So far as possible, working parties
are employed on essentially military
. operations, such as the putting up of
wire entanglements, the digging of
trenches, tho carrying of rations and
stores, whereas a fatigue party is
9 ' likely to be employed on more men,
ial forms of occupation.
.But it is difficult to change old Wi
C> names, and though the distinction
wet'ii a fatigue party and a work- ^
party is carefully observed in
RtiC-w^lcfal orders, the British soldier '''
Xfly^ hiirinvlf is sWIl inclined to apply the lur
'W t>Td. n#u10 "fatigue" indiscriminately Wl
eV to nfl .fbrftis of extra work. ' din
