read that the first train that passed

was a military train bearing wounded
from Belgium TO Berlin, but that the

hot coffee. As the train rolled in. the
nurses at once stepped in TO treat the
wounded soldiers.
Most of the men, il seemed. were
lightly wounded and they stuck their
heads out of windows and called for
food and coffee. The people cheered

and joked with the girls who handed
them the food. Everyone was very
jolly.
The older men on the platform
