- During World War I, the British line was defended by posts about 30 yards apart. On 29 November, a German raid on an outpost failed.
- In December, there was a sudden increase in the number of German prisoners being taken. This was attributed to the arrival of a new German division, men getting lost in the fog and stumbling into British positions, and an unusual willingness to surrender.

>The British line was held by posts about 30 yards (27 m) apart during the day and on 29 November a German raid on an outpost failed. At the end of December, a sudden increase in the number of German prisoners being taken was noticed, partly because a new German division had arrived, partly due to men getting lost in the fog and stumbling into British positions and partly because of an unusual willingness to surrender. Twenty Germans were captured on 1 January, 29 prisoners taken on 2 January and another 50 prisoners were taken during the week, many of whom willingly gave themselves up. ⇒英国軍の戦線は、日中はおよそ30ヤード(27m)間隔の哨戒陣地によって維持されていたが、11月29日に、その最先端へのドイツ軍の急襲があったが、それは失敗した。12月の末に、ドイツ兵の囚人数の急増が認識されたが、それは一部には新しいドイツ師団が到着したこと、一部には霧の中で道に迷って英国軍の陣地に入ること、そしてまた一部には降伏したいという意外な意志のためであった。1月1日に20人のドイツ兵が捕虜となり、1月2日に29人の囚人が捕らえられて、さらに1週間のうちに50人の囚人が捕縛されたが、その多くは自発的な降伏であった。
お礼
