The men of the Sd Infantry sanitary
troops have had mostly drillwork in
first-aid applications. While here they
are being given instruction in dressing
station work, which is one point
farther behind the firing line than
the first-aid station, which is supposed
to be right on the battlefield.
Officers and men are anxiously await
ing figures on the percentage of hits.
1t was said yesterday that 6 per cent
of hits would be an excellent record.
Army experts have figured that dur
ing the Russo-Japanese war it took
1000 shots to kill or wound one man.
and the average of all wars is 1,7O0
per man. The smallest was during the
civil war at the battle of Chicka-
manga, when the men were fighting al
most hand to hand, when the percent
age was 400 per casualty.
The firing was observed by Gen.
Harvey, Maj. Harry Coope, adjutant
