They sent a patrol into this one place
with the resistance again and
we went down a short tunnel,
railroad tunnel and we
noticed it was all mined,
they had decommissioned the mine.
We got in to the end of it and
here was this German ammunition,
they were all heavy shells and
aerial bombs in this deep hole that had
been mined but there was no roof on it.
And while we’re in there the Jerry’s
tried to blow it up by firing shells but
they were just high enough that
they hit the walls, the inside walls
and exploded and not affect them.
But this guide we had,
this French underground guide,
he got scared stiff and crawled
underneath the piles of bombs
to get out of the way.
Well, we went out the tunnel in a hurry!
