Definition
Soldiers' speech in the 41st Belthane Trench Rifles for the Munitorum chain-haulers of the Halvern East line, order 41-B. For five years they came every thirty-six days between the seventh and the ninth hour: late twice, never absent — and delivering full establishment strength to the last.
