Namur Describes German Prisoners and Defenses In Belgian Province
In Namur a Chicago News report by Maurice Gerbe describes a large crowd of German prisoners and their complaints of insufficient rations. It notes overstretched German quartermaster efforts, mixed marksmanship, and a formidable but retreating cavalry. Belgian engineers and workers fortify positions as castles and villas are prepared for detonation. Belgian soldiers, aided by local workers, protect lines with trenches and wire, while Helgian officers rally disciplined troops. An estimated 128,000 Preveh troops are in Luxembourg province, greeted by demonstrations as marching songs rise.
