On one occasion, after having had to swallow an exceptionally large
dose of complimentary eloquence, I stated that I was going to
borrow a title for my book from my favorite philosopher, Mr.
Dooley, and call it "Alone in Europe," The title that has been
given it sounds almost as egoistic as that; but there will be found
in these pages other names than my own. Indeed, objection may be
made from a literary point of view that the book bristles with
names. I could not write my story otherwise. I knew these men, and
what they did, and my only regret is that I have undoubtedly
overlooked some, especially amongst replacements, whose names and
deeds should be mentioned. Battles are not fought by commanding
officers alone, >not even by chaplains unaided; and the men who
do the fighting usually get little personal credit for their valor.
