About half of these Aero wiped out in the rush towards Amiens and St. Venant Many were not abandoned until long after the evacuation of adjacent camps. The heroism of those in charge has been commented upon. Some of the helpers refused to leave as long as there were any wounded or stragglers waiting to be helped. In one Church Army Hut the superintendent and her helpers were all blown to pieces by a shell while preparing hot drinks for the men. As the Church Army, which supports so many essential comforts for our men, has no Government resources to fall back upon, it depends entirely on the real patriotism of those at Home and in New Zsatynd MONEY TO REPLACE THE LOST HUTS IS URGENTLY NEEDED.
