    The horses maybe thought these were nosebags.....hopefully searching for oats within the bag..the most heartrending description of horses in war is in ''All quiet on the Western Front'' by Remarque. His description of a british bombardment, both prior, when the horses were moving at night along the line in silvery moonlight { a bad thing in war, as it enables things to be seen} and during the attack, and it's awful aftermath. Maybe the two pages of writing , so powerfully written in the original translation, is what prompted the novel and play ''War Horse''. My son's great Grandad was in the RHA 1914-19 and the horses were as well looked after as they could be in those harrowing conditions.

    Makes me think of the kids in Bedknobs and Broomsticks. It's amazing to me how total strangers opened their homes to board children. It's too bad that it usually takes a crisis to get us to come together~
