The Boy Sniper and War Tales From Ypres
A young American on a London to Ostend journey joins a British cavalry regiment and fights at Ypres. He becomes an armored car driver, then an army service corps rider, recalling a near-miss with a hidden sniper, a tree-anchored rifle, and a fatal bridge shot. The narrative describes capturing disguised German snipers, a deadly roadside joke, and a Belgian boy of fourteen involved in nightly shootings on a transport road.
