Book excerpt: Excerpt from True Stories of the Great War, Vol. 5 of 6: Tales of Adventure Heroic Deeds Exploits Told by the Soldiers, Officers, Nurses, Diplomats, Eye Witnesses; Collected in Six Volumes From Official and Authoritative Sources The region round Verberie was definitely cleared of Germans and was become once more French. The little town for some days presented an extraordinary spectacle. We entered the town after having received the formal assurance of the sth Chasseurs, who went farther on, that all the country was in our hands. Some divisional cyclists were seated at the roadside. We asked them for news of the 22nd, and their reply wrung our hearts. They knew nothing definite, but they had met a country cart full of our wounded comrades, who had told them that the regiment had been cut up. No one could tell us where the divisional area was to be found. The division itself appeared to have been dismembered, lost and in part destroyed. We thought that we were the only survivors of a disaster, and, once the horses were in shelter in an empty abandoned farm stuffing themselves with hay, we wandered sadly through the streets destroyed by bombardment and by fire in search of such civilians as might have remained behind during the invasion.
