Largely illiterate men left relatively little trace of their opinion in the shape of letters and diaries – while officers, politically divided, portrayed soldiers’ attitudes largely in order to suit their own immediate aims. Surviving accounts and official records suggest that while soldiers accepted the necessity of the conflict, they were increasingly angry at what they deemed to be their unfair treatment. The impossibility of leave was the soldiers’ most serious complaint. Extreme refusal was exemplified by various mutinies in 1918. en en d !Filipe Ribeiro de Meneses SBetween Acceptance and Refusal - Soldiers' Attitudes Towards War (Portugal) l 2calibre (2.5.0) [http://calibre-ebook.com] i 9International Encyclopedia of the First World War i 1914-1918-Online i First World War i WW1 i SBetween Acceptance and Refusal - Soldiers' Attitudes Towards War (Portugal) q ,52a5b070-07c1-4c01-9fdc-8b9c3b865b3c p 4calibre:52a5b070-07c1-4c01-9fdc-8b9c3b865b3c EBOK j !2016-11-16T00:00:00+00:00 t Between Acceptance and Refusal - Soldiers' Attitudes Towards War (Portugal)
