Diaries
Edward Hill: July 12, 1864
Stores closed. Citizen soldiers in arms. The streets filled with marshall [sic] men. The Rebels in full upon the 7th Street Road. Communications cut between Washington and Baltimore and B. & Philadelphia.
—Captain Edward Hill, 16th Michigan Infantry, Union Army (diary)
Frank Curry: July 12, 194?
Just another Sunday at sea, and hard boiled eggs for breakfast. Ship is taking quite a beating in the rough going, and everyone is quiet and tense, with very little in the way of conversation going on. The crew can see very little to talk about when the going is grim. Just short, curt replies to short, curt questions. Even the ship's clown takes on the mood of the ship. I do not imagine we are a very lively group to live with under such circumstances. And so on into another dark dirty as I scrawl these few lines in my daily diary by the dim light of the emergency lighting in our pitching stinking mess deck with its off-watch men curled up like animals on the sliding deck, trying to catch a few minutes' rest.
George Beck: July 12, 1944
Left Zuittair for Lamsdorf said farewell to Bernard and the lads. Arrived Hornstadt nine am, slept at German headquarters, feel pretty weak after twelve days in German hospital, nothing to eat since I left working party.
—George Beck,1st Battalion The Duke of Wellington's Regiment, prisoner of war (diary)
