Quite correct; perticularly significant again, in the next war, WWII, given the Dunkirk evacuation.
The prisoners receive precisely the same rations as our own troops

The carnage was due to old and usless tactics. It has always taken men to die before the tactics get changed.

Photo caption from AWM: "A German prisoner 'getting his issue' at ration time in the prisoners of war (POW) compound (popularly termed the Bird Cage) at Hoograaf, the day after the Australian attack, on 4 October 1917, at Broodseinde Ridge, in the Ypres Sector, when many Germans were captured. The quality and quantity of our rations, of which the enemy prisoners received the same amount as British troops, amazed the Germans after their existence on meagre supplies of the poorest of food. "Taken October 5, 1917 at Western Front (Belgium), Ypres Area, Hoograaf"
