The boatman invited us on board and I felt very foolish when he told me that he had helped hundreds of soldiers to【B19】their map-reading test! Not long afterwards, we got off the boat and,【B20】the boat man’s instructions, took a bus into the village. When we got back to camp, the commanding officer congratulated me on having led the men back so quickly.
