Gentlemen,

According to Claude's wristwatch it stopped at 1745 hours. It is interesting that the soldier guarding the road, cut off a piece of silk as a souvenir. I now presume that when the infantry men made the stretcher from two heavy branches and their jackets, they must have pulled the parachute canopy down from the branches and used the silk shroud to cushion the stretcher when they laid Claude Moore on top?
