Summary
| Description | Image: Newspaper Illustrations. Title: "The Hero of a Machine-Gun Detachment." Caption: "'Eyewitness' tells the following story as typical of the innumerable deeds of heroism performed during the desperate fighting round Ypres. During an attack, preceded by a cloud of gas which threatened to paralyse the defence, a private of a machine gun detachment kept it in action on the parapet of the trench, inflicting severe loss on the enemy, until he firmly collapsed, choking and blinded by the fumes. This act of self-sacrifice cost him his life, for the poison had so penetrated his lungs that he died the following day." | |
