A Camouflaged Meal
"Heard a good one about the Maoris last time they were in the line " writes a local soldier from Italy. "They came across an Italian house when they saw some pigs, so out they get with a stretcher and a blanket, and while, some of them engaged the Iti's in conversation the others knocked the pig put it on the. stretcher with the blood oozing everywhere —and when they passed the house the Iti's took their hats off in respect. Several of us bad a good dinner that night."
