Sharpshooters on the 18th Corps Front: "On some portions of the lines picket firing was soon discontinued. Genl. Warren considered it unnecessary to the safty [sic] of the 5th Corps front, and put a stop to it. The enemy did likewise. But where the practice was in vogue it was very dangerous to be exposed. A common plan of protection was that shown in the sketch, by a wooden tube widening outwards like a miniature embrasure buried in the crest of the rifle pit and protected by sandbags."
