British soldiers synchronising their watches on the front line, First World War, 1914-1918, (1933)

British soldiers synchronising their watches on the front line, First World War, 1914-1918, (1933). Punctuality was no longer the " Courtesy of Kings" in Edward VIIs phrase, but the " Safety of Soldiers"...all camps had a post surmounted by a clock by which all troops regulated their watches. In France before an attack, watches were synchronised to obtain unanimity of movement and perfect co-operation at zero hour - the name given to the moment of attack. From " The Pageant of the Century". [Odhams Press Ltd, 1933]
