Stanley (Arthur Stanley) 1895 1976 Blicq, Arthur Stanley Blicq, Arthur Sanford Blicq, Arthur Sandford Norman Ten Hundred : $b A Record of the 1st (Service) Bn. Royal Guernsey Light Infantry E-text prepared by Steven Gibbs and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team "Norman Ten Hundred" by A. Stanley Blicq is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book details the experiences of the 1st (Service) Battalion of the Royal Guernsey Light Infantry during World War I, focusing particularly on their participation in significant battles and the unique challenges they faced. It captures the grit, camaraderie, and the harsh realities of war, while celebrating the valor of the Guernsey men who served. The opening of the narrative sets the scene in September-October 1917, as the soldiers of the Ten Hundred prepare to embark on a journey at the frontline. The initial descriptions highlight their mixed feelings of weariness and frustration as they endure uncomfortable travel conditions and the trepidation of impending conflict. The vivid portrayal of sights and sounds—the ceaseless rumble of distant artillery, the cramped quarters of their trains, and the ominous silence before battle—is accompanied by snapshots of the soldiers' personalities, creating a nuanced picture of life in the war. These early chapters hint at the emotional and physical struggles that will characterize the battalion's experiences, illustrating an evolution from mundane concerns to those of survival amidst chaos and death.
