"Ovi e Top, boys, and give 'em helt" When the zero hour arrives and
the wave's--r troops go over and forward, ta barrage fire rolls ahead of them,
shielding t em with an Impenetrable wall of fire. A barrage laid down ahead
of our ad ."nclng troops, protecting thsm ar.d razing the German positions,
may cost from $500,CCO In Liberty Bonds upwards.
"When you're waiting to go over . be given the best chance for life out
tho top you think of a lot of things,"
said an infantry Lieutenant on the
sector near Cantigny recently.
"As you stand there with the hands
of your watch moving around to the
zero hour, the draft whipping acid
wisps of araoke down tho trench, and
see your platoon gripping their rifles,
with bayonets set, ready to follow
you over Into that hull, you know that
somo of them won't come back.
"You look at the second hand of
your watch. 'Ten seconds,' 'five sec
onds,' and you glanco across to where
the barrage forms a protecting wall
of fire. 'Two seconds'--and you thank
God for the folks back home that are
backing you up and putting up the
mouey for all of those shells, for they
mean that, these brave bnvs aro to
there.
"Zero and over you 150."
Tho barrage fire is n wall of bursting
shells that mo vea "ahead of tho ad
vancing troops in an attack. So per
fectly is the schedule timed that the
artillerymen, far in tho rear, Know

is, and raising the angle of tholr guns,
keep tho bursting shells just ahead.
