Basket Work Comforts Troops in Trench Civilian Style
A The Associated Press correspondent in Tarnow reports Austrian and German landsturm soldiers along the Dunajec river built willow basket work into their trenches. They lined dugouts, created chairs tables and even summer houses with roofs woven from twigs. Gardens and sod borders followed as spring arrived, then the shelters were left empty as troops pursued retreating Russians.
