CARE AND IMPROVEMENT OF THE TRENCHES.
6.—Improvements:
Investigate the work under way for the improvement of defense and prepare plans for further work if necessary.
Obvious improvements are: making additional communication trenches, repairing or completing shelters, listening posts, mining tunnels, wire entanglements.
7.—Ammunition shelters:
See that there are a sufficient number of shelters for rifle ammunition, grenades, rockets and other supplies.
8.—Loopholes and Parapet:
Ascertain the conditions of all the loopholes and have them repaired if need be. (They should cut the parapet diagonally and be concealed in every way possible with vegetation, branches, and the opening blocked when not in use.)
