This amusing little extract comes from the Punch in January 1916.
I’m never sure with the ‘Punch’ what is real and what is fiction. But I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt as it is quite amusing. Anyway -
An extract from a letter written to a loved one from the Front:—
"I received your dear little note in a sandbag. You say that you hope the sandbag stops a bullet. Well, to tell the truth, I hope it don't, as I have been patching my trousers with it."
