Question

What do the French-speaking women throw to the soldiers of Second Company as the soldiers swim across the canal?

Answer 1

They communicate with them in broken French, indicating that they have food. They are forbidden to cross the canal, just as the women are. Later that night, the men gather some food and swim across, wearing nothing more than their boots. The women throw them clothing.

Answer 2

The provided texts do not include information about French-speaking women throwing items to soldiers of Second Company swimming across a canal, thus no accurate response can be given to the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided does not directly answer the question about what French-speaking women threw to soldiers of Second Company as they swim across the canal. Without specific reference to the text in question, I am unable to provide an accurate response regarding this particular event. The excerpts given touch on various historical and fictional contexts involving soldiers but do not mention an incident about women throwing objects to a swimming Second Company.
