The Captain was looking over the edge of the trench as his batman approached him.
"Captain, Private Macintosh has been murdered!"
"Killed, Mitchell. In war you are killed, not murdered."
"By one of our pistols to the back of the head as he slept, Sir?"
The Captain stepped down, and then strode over to where Macintosh had indeed been murdered. After a few moments, he turned back to Mitchell.
"There's a lieutenant with the 6th Gunners, name of Floren. He's good at solving mysteries. See if you can get him to-"
They were both killed by an enemy mortar shell.
