A British general told me it could md would be held. and the Greeks agreed. overhead does not. The problem of British troops u Greece was complicated by the fact that Greece had only two harbors with facilities for unload- ing heavy British materials. These were Piraeus, adjoining Athens. and Salonika. Salonika fell early into German hands, and Piraeus was quickly wrecked by German bombs. This prevented landing of any more effective aid, and it was de- cided to withdraw the British Bx- peditlonary Forces with their com- paratively low casualties up to that time-much lower than they had inflicted on the Germans- rather than try to continue hold- ing back a German force of at least 30 divisions (300,004) or more men, against the British 60,000). When this decision was made, Britons and the Anzac command- ers had Just installed themselves on the so-called ‘rhermopylae _ line, an elliptical front running from Thermopylae on the Aegean to a point near the ancient oracle of Delphi on the Gulf of Corinth. The withdrawal to this line had been most orderly, despite terrific and constant German air attacks. I was in the withdrawal with British, Australian and New Zea- land troops falling back lri their vehicles behind covering forces. They were somewhat christened by the fury oi the German attacks which drove them from the Mount Olympus line, but still were grimly determined to defend the new positions. It had been planned to make an intermediate stand north of Lamla, but this was abandoned primarily because of the danger of Germans landing airplane troops and parachiitists on the plain just to the south. The Germans did use air-borne troops but did not succcezlin land- ing them behind the British hiics. They resorted to parachutists later to grab the single bridge over the Corinthian canal to keep Bri- tish engineers from blowing it_ up, and also landed troops by prone in the Pelopomiesus later. This speeded up their penetra- tion of southern Greece, but it had little effect on the British troops, who by that lime had mostly withdrawn, Thermopylae itself. a shelf of ,.. ch driven for 4 1-2 hours f."v‘.’.§"¢..i§§‘.cu¢i. mountain roads The crew of our Greek ship did not want to go farther, so most of the refugees were taken to a camp ashore.

Every vessel that could pass muster was used and the greater part—-48,000 out of (l0,000—-got away.

With the R. A.

In- | stead, the pass was held merely, by covering parties for the evacua- . tion line, and there was no truly‘ major contact between Britons and Germans after the withdrawal i from the Olympus sector. German air attacks on all the roads were so heavy that most of the withdrawals were by night. The nights of April 22 and 23 were moonless. This, together with the fact that the earlier Olympus withdrawals were achieved on two rainy nights which kept the Ger- mans out of the air, was of trem- endous importance. Some British troops got to the beach of the Evvoia (Euboea) channel south of Khalkis and were picked up by small boats. Others were taken off at many points along the Ae eon coast. The bulk o the army cut across Attilca to the Megara-Mandara o n. "glare heavy bombings indicated that the Germans suspected their presence. so instead of embarking there they moved by night across the Corinthian canal that blsetcs the isthmus, and reached the shores of the eastern Peloponriesus, mainly on the Gulf of A1808- There the biggest emoarkations took place the nights of April 24 and April 27. Battalions lay concealed under the trees there b day while Ger- man bombers va nly searched for them. As soon as night fell, the beaches came alive with soldiers and the sea with boats. Every ves- sel that, would float was used. , Thus the greater part of the army got away. _ Little heavy materiaTcould be taken along, but most of it was destroyed. when the Germans arrived, they found the woods full of wrecked vehicles and destroyed supplies of all descriptions, but nothing of much value. Not, many of the departing troops passed thruogh Athens as our groups did. In all the great withdrawal, I did riot see one incident of panic. It went off with astonishing smoothness considering the cir- cumstances. This was due mainly to the rank and file, for contact with the top organization was bfvkefl- Getting the wounded out was the most staggering problem. Expect Drive (Continued from page 1) 4.
