THE COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF
message we want. "Crest reached. . . . Enemy in
sight. . . ."/
'And do you have different wave-lengths for your
various sections?*
*Of course. You have to give your drivers very
precise orders, because they can't see a great deal
through their narrow slits. Only this morning,
blissfully ignorant of where they were going, they
flattened out a liaison agent's motor-cycle: not
knowing that the tanks were likely to start he'd left
his machine in front of one of them. You should
have seen the look on the face of that motor-cyclist
when the machine was suddenly turned to ribbon
before his eyes/
'What about the driver of the tank?'
cHe didn't even feel it,* said the Colonel.
