ABOUT MIDNIGHT I, ALONG WITH THE REST OF PLATOON, WAS CALLED OUT, AND TOLD TO REPORT TO THE DRILL HALL. TWO GERMAN P.O.Ws. HAD ESCAPED, AND WE HAD TO ASSIST IN SEARCHING FOR THEM. WE WERE PAIRED OFF, AND GIVEN AN AREA TO COVER, AND ISSUED WITH A RIFLE EACH.A RIFLE, NO AMMO.AWAY WE WENT,TO OUR AREA, AND SEARCHED AWAY.IT WAS A MOONLIT NIGHT PLUS SOME CLOUDS.THE MOON CAME OUT, AND WE SAW TWO FIGURES CROSSING A FIELD.WE WATCHED THE TWO MEN APPROACH ,DIDNT KNOW WHETHER THEY HAD SEEN US OR NOT, BUT WHEN THEY WERE ABOUT A COUPLE OF HUNDRED YARDS AWAY I SAID LOUDLY,"GO ROUND THE CORNER ( WE WERE OUTSIDE THE CREMETORIUM , FUNNILY ENOUGH) STICK ONE UP THE SPOUT, AND COVER ME." A VOICE SAID "GO CANNY WITH THAT RIFLE, WE"VE BEEN WATCHING YOU THINKING YOU MIGHT BE THEM" THE TWO MEN WERE GUARDS FROM THE CAMP.
