Description
Excerpt from Made in the Trenches, Composed Entirely From Articles Sketches Contributed by Soldiers: Edited by Sir Frederick Treves and George Goodchild
In the aftermath of this grievous war there is no more lamentable and pathetic figure than the soldier who, by reason of his wounds, is paralysed and left utterly helpless. One is apt to associate such helplessness with extreme old age or with the final phase of some exhausting illness; but here is a man in the very ?ower of his youth, bedridden possibly for life, unable to move hand or foot, and dependent, at every moment of the day, upon the ministration of others.
