has not calloused or dulled the SEN
sibilities of the American Army sur
geon. Nothing stands out inner or
nobler than the tender care ana earn
est solicitude with which American
military doctors handle their soldier
patients. :
In three-day trip through the
St. Mihiel sector. the correspondent
of the Associated Press had many
opportunities of observing the work
of the American medical men. He Vis-
tied a number of field dressing sta
tions and also several hospitals just
back of the battle line, through which
hundreds of wounded Americans were
passing.
Every Recourse Is Exhausted.
Disabled American soldiers. from
the time their wounds are dressed at
the advance casualty station to the
time they arrive at the last base hos
pital receive the most sympathetic
and tender care at the hands of the
Army doctors. They get better care
and more attentive treatment than an
average person would in peace times.
To render the soldier free from pain
to make him comfortable, to cheer
his spirit. the American military doc
tor will exhaust every recourse, Will
sacrifice sleep and food and all per-
sonal thought of himself.
Thousands of instances occur every
day where Army physicians. SO abb
sorbed and SO sympathetically inter-
ested in their patients. will keep
night after night an anxious and I'M
broken vigil over the progress of
their condition. and will rest only
when ordered to Go SO by superior
officer.
Both Physician and Nurse.
Besides the use of aneSthetics the
Yankee doctor. caring for his fighting
comrade only as he would care for a
brother. resorts to hundred other
means of relieving the wounded mans
distress In the actual battle zone he
has to act as physician and nurse. for
no women are permitted in the front
lines. 1t is always impressive to see
the gentle, cautious way he places his
patients in bed. the infinite pains he
takes to cause them as little suffer-
Ing as possible when applying Or re-
moving dressings. and how kindly
and reaSsuringly he speaks to them.
The ambulance drivers and stretch
er bearers spare no pains to see that
the sick and wounded in transit from
the front over broken French roads
suffer no hardship or discomfort.
