Reminiscence of The War

The trip up thru Tennessee, Kentucky, Indiana. Illinois was especially enjoyable. The Red Cross was out in full force m every town of any size serving Ice. Cream, Cigarettes. Chewing Gum and Post Cards. But for the Red Cross the trips across the country would have been almost unbearable. Through out Tennessee the girls who came to the depot were mostly it uniform of Red Cross workers but when we got to Kentucky the girls turned out in force and of course that helped some too. There are more pretty girls in Bowling Green, Ky. than l ever saw in one place either before or since. and they all had to shake hands. Four hospital units left Greenleaf on this train but 1 think there were only three then. You can readily guess the girls had an old-fashioned handshakingtime.
 Indiana is a fine looking coun- try. Nice smooth looking land and appeared to have good crops, corn looked like 40 to 80 bu. per acre.
 None of us liked Chicago, the Red Cross couldn't muster but three cigarettes each and no Ice Cream. From Chicago we went out thru III. and Iowa but 1t was in the night andaI didn't get to see any of the country.
