Letter from Jerome Harris

When Lieutenant Jerome G. Harris
went across the ocean he expected t,
get into action, and his expectation
have been realized if the letter he re
Gently wrote home is an indication
Lieut. Harris censors his own letters
hence he is very carefulIwhat he writes
He tells that he cannot give informa
ton where he has been but there is 6
general idea of his whereabouts which
may or may not be correct. The letter
is as follows:
In France, Aug. 6, '1S
Dear Father:
Perhaps you have been wondering
why have not written to you, but |
have not been where l could. To tell
you the truth, have been in it and
been in it strong and how / ever got
out God only knows. | am now in
Paris in hospital, getting a rest. l
am not injured, but the effect of it has
just worn me down in health. 1t was
SO strange, so different from what one
would expect, and not only that, it
was so sudden.
During the many battles which we
had, all of which we won, never felt
any strange feelings; at times | was
scared for reasons unknown, but it was
the after effects which knocked me out,
when | started to think how it had ali
happened and the loss of some of my
best friends; some shall never see and
others will as cripples. Major Heidi,
Lleutenants Media and Harris John
w. Harris, Jr., of Memphis, Tenn,
and no way related) were injured. l
was with Major Heidi when he was
crippled. suppose as time goes on l
shall get used to this, but | must con-
Tess 1t went hard for awhile. But / am
resting up now and getting over it.
only wish / could tell you where
we were, for no doubt iyou read about
1T, but it was real conflict. All one
night we lay in a barrage, which we
thought we would never get out of.
When / say barrage, mean barrage
one in which nearly every inch of
ground is covered with big shells. To
be an observer, one would think it was
to exist, but some of us did,
by good fortune. You see the first time
in one never knows what to expect and
that is all war, bucking up
against the unexpected. Well, l must
confess it is different from most things
but we are here to do our duty, so we'll
for that.
! shall try to keep you more inform
ed as time goes on, but there are times
when it is even difficult to write. |
shall always write when the opportun-
lty presents itself l have not heard
from you in two weeks, but that is due
to our not being able to get mail.
How is every ope at home? Tell
them all that think of them many,
many times. | have not seen anyone
from home until the other night on
my way to Paris met Jimmie Stod-
dard, and he certainly is doing good
work in the medical branch.
Remember me to every one. Hope
to see you soon.
Your SON.

American Expeditionary Forces
The following note is the idea" that
has been formed as to where Lieut.
Harris has been;
After going to France early in May
Lieut.. Harris took special training in
gas warfare and had been appointed
battalion gas officer when his division,
4th Regulars, went into battle on July
Is, in the drive by Americans from
north of Chateau Thierry toward Fis-
mes. 1t seems that they were in con-
tinuous battle until July 30, when
they came under the barrage and suf-
fered severe casualties. A private in
reporting his injuries to Lieut.. Harris
showed six wounds in his body and
fourteen holes in his clothes. This bat
tie was the first of the victories now
being had under General Foch.
