Identify and comment on some of the words the author uses in this chapter to "create images" with readers. For example the "mysterious wailing of a set of bagpipes" creates a somber, mournful image for me. While, "slashing at the surf with their spades," does give a sense of the utter confusion and horror the soldiers faced.
