自从一九一四到一九一八年“争取民主的战争”以来就存在着一种用心险恶的声音。多年之后，这些共产党人还在劝导好战的工人：“民主”是资本主义的雅称。先说“民主是个骗局”，然后再说“为民主而战”，这并不是一种好的策略。

看得出人们都很满足，充满了希望。这里没有失业，生活成本非常低廉。你很少看到完全赤贫的人，除了吉卜赛人之外没有乞丐。最重要的是，大家都对革命和未来怀着坚定的信念，感觉突然迈进了平等自由的时代。每个人都试着展现出人性化的行为，而不是资本主义机器里的零部件。

对我来说，战争意味着呼啸的炮弹和四处飞舞的弹片，而最可怕的是，战争意味着泥泞、虱子、饥饿和严寒。说起来好笑，但我害怕严寒甚于害怕敌人。

现在我目睹了前线的情况，觉得非常恶心讨厌。他们就管这个叫打仗！我们甚至和敌人没有任何接触！守在战壕后面时，我甚至不想俯下头颅。但没过一会儿，一颗子弹呼啸着掠过我的耳际，击中了我身后的背墙。天哪！我躲了起来。我一直在赌咒发誓子弹从我身边掠过时，我绝不会躲起来，但躲藏的动作似乎出自于本能，几乎每个人都会做出这种举动，至少一回。

这个年纪的男孩不应该被派上前线，因为他们无法忍受与战壕战密不可分的失眠。刚开始的时候，我们几乎没办法组织好夜间的防御工作，我只能将班里那帮可恶的小孩生拉硬拽地从掩体里拖出来，等你一转过身他们就离开岗位，溜回掩体里睡觉。更有甚者，虽然天寒地冻，他们就靠在战壕的墙上，沉沉地睡着了。幸运的是，敌人只是在消极应战。有好几个晚上，我觉得要是有二十个配备气枪的童子军或二十个配备长刀的女童军攻过来的话，我们的阵地就会宣告失守。

理论上每支民兵队伍都奉行民主，没有地位高低之分。大家都知道必须服从军令，但你下达命令时是出于同志之情，而不是上级对下级发号施令。民兵组织有军官和军士，但没有普通意义上的军阶，也没有军衔和徽章，不需要并腿敬礼。他们试图在民兵队伍中树立起一套无阶级社会的临时制度规范。当然，绝对平等是不存在的，但已经相当平等了，我此前从未见到过，也无法想象在战争的时候能够以这种组织去打仗。

"I wonder what is the appropriate first action when you come

from a country at war and set foot on peaceful soil. Mine was to

rush to the tobacco-kiosk and buy as many cigars and cigarettes as

I could stuff into my pockets." Most war correspondents observe

wars and then tell stories about the battles, the soldiers and the

civilians. George Orwell--novelist, journalist, sometime

socialist--actually traded his press pass for a uniform and fought

against Franco's Fascists in the Spanish Civil War during 1936 and

1937. He put his politics and his formidable conscience to the

toughest tests during those days in the trenches in the Catalan

section of Spain. Then, after nearly getting killed, he went back

to England and wrote a gripping account of his experiences, as well

as a complex analysis of the political machinations that led to the

defeat of the socialist Republicans and the victory of the

Fascists.
