Power to Sleep Lost to British Regiment After Weeks of Fighting

A London dispatch describes a Welsh English regiment in trenches on the Aisne, men driven to near madness by weeks of bombardment and constant alert. The writer details a nocturnal visit to billets where officers and sergeants struggle to sleep, the captain’s collapse, and soldiers’ nerves frayed by shrapnel and long watchfulness.

An eye witness at British Headquarters describes trench shelters named Hotel Cecil Ritz and Rue Dormir, overhead cover and dugouts, quarries forming halls, and road obstructions as both sides fortify.
