"Fall in! Hustle it up there! Squads right! March!"

We moved off through the darkness, and turned to the left on Fourth Avenue. It was past belief. We were walking away from Upton. Feet shuffled as if trying to dissipate a dream. It was real. We were actually marching, and our destination was the front.

There was a precision about that movement that augured well. We found our trains waiting at the railroad station. The column was divided and the proper number of men placed in each car without delay or confusion. Scarcely were we packed in when the trains started.
