didn't know then that we were the fort

was that "2s" was going home "toute
de suite" II turned out that "2s" had
a worse time getting home than we
did, albeit they beat us by several
months.
Anyway our lot fell into very pleas
ant places in Germany. After a few
days in Coblenz four Of us were sent
to Trier for duty with Evacuation Hos
pital No. 3, two were kept in Coblenz,
one in the Chief Surgeons office and
one at the Third Army Laboratory.
Evacuation No. 8 was on the eve of
departure for home. and two days
after reaching Trier the relieving unit.
Evacuation No. 10, arrived from Al
lerey, France. We We're again trans
ferrcd and remained as part Of Evacua-
ton No. i9's permanent personnel the
remainder Of our stay in the A. Z. r.
The work in Germany for the first

disqualification. And the poor dough-

MANY people ask, How do you like
France !-Sermany-,o ver-there, ete
Right here = the place TO say that
France is all right, England is all
right, Belgium Is al right, germany
y all right, " u would onl ~ produce a
different brand OF people. But the
all RICHEST" Of them all is the good
old United States-yes sir, even If Il
did dry up while We were away, and
even u the sight OF n uniform, nine
times out OF ten, Is the occasion for a
jump IN price. None OF the countries
over there can touch the United States
when IL comes to being there IN all
things.
France Is wonderful country and
the french are wonderful people
