Asked for the Colours

In the middle of the battle a driver got wounded and asked to see the

colours before he died, and he was told by an officer that the guns

were his colours. He replied, “Tell the drivers to keep their eyes on

their guns, because if we lose our guns we lose our colours”: _Driver

W. Moore, Royal Field Artillery_.
