 It is not a happy story. But it carries a lesson, an insight in- to life, that every girl and every woman should learn for her own safety and for posterity. Read her story as told by her. self so that you too may know life as she learned it and be glad that you do not have to pay for the knowledge as she had to pay.

and then turn your back on them

one of the hardest things to do in

many families but to have had one
of those sons killed by disease,
another wounded in action and the
other so fu-ed up that his escape

record Of the Richardson's at Trout

G" might have it's place in a major
offensive. Fred the calm looking
guy above was in the Fighting @.
NJ; he saw the whole show includ-
ing the side performances.
Entering the service early in
1918 he was sent across almost i'm
mediately as a truck driver in the
108th Supply Train. The Leviathan
dumped them off at Brest and as
soon as they had collected their
trucks they started in to do their
stuff. AT first they were based on
the big base ports carrying supplies
from them up to the Gepots back
of the lines but finally they had
the privilege Of trucking from the
railhead to the lines; that was a
little different.
When it comes to- running the
gauntlet of shells in the trip to
and from the front lines, Fred
takes back seat for no man. He
served through four major often
sives constantly under fire and al
though his wrecks were the aver
age numbe they were never caused
by humping up against a shell
when it was in a hurry. At times
they would change their cargo of
shells for iron rations, there seemed
to be no one regulation thing that
they should carry. They simply
dumped what was handiest into
their old Nash-Quads and were off.
They were rather a casual outfit
eating wherever they happened to
stop and sleeping mostly not at all.

Travelled over most of the roads in

Occupation in Germany.
He was shipped back to Gods
country on the Leviathan late in
June Of 1919, having spent the last
nine months or so wearing out the
roads up around Coblenz.

one Past National Commander of
the Legion, Hanaford McNider of
the 9th Infantry. In its enlisted
personnel we find the Marines in
whose ranks belonged Private Emil
Gehrke our first front line casualty.
Chris was across early in the Au-
tumn Of 1917 He first saw service
near Verdun in March of 1918.
They we're slated to see still more
service in the Somme district but
that was called off when the Ger
mans again took the road to Paris.
This road ended like their first lit
tie trip, at the Marine. The Marine
was the first real test Of the 2nd
Division. Belleau Woods, Chateau
Thierry, scissors are names that
Will forever be noteworthy in our
military history. Chris went
through them all with his outfit.
They helped clean up the st. Mi
hiel Salient on the 18th Of Septcm-
Der capturing $500 prisoners and
100 guns, a fifth Of the total pris-
oners captured and quarter of
the guns.
October 2nd to 10th they fought
with the French in the Champagne
(BIanc MonD offensive. They took
25O0 prisoners and II guns in this
battle. They themselves suffered
to the extent Of 5000 killed,
wounded and missing. In his or
der Of the day issued October 18th,
1918, General Lejeune says, ITO be
able to say when the war is fin
ished, / belonged to the 2nd Divi-
sion, | fought with it at the Bat
tie Of Blanc Mont Ridge will be
the highest honor that can come to
any man"
They entered the Argonne mess
little late, not being able to be
in more than one place at a time.
November LIST finds them in line
and in the last ten days Of the war
they advance 30 kilometers and
capture 1000 men from 10 differ
ent German divisions. They lost in
this time 1900 Of their own men.
The entire casualty list Of the
2nd Division totaled 24,429 men.
Prisoners captured 1926; guns
captured 343; machine guns taken,
1850; total advance on front line
81 kilometers; distinguished SER
vice crosses awarded GAG; total
enemy divisions engeged 80.
Chris and his artillery gang were
in the Army Of Occupation from
the 18th Of November, on. He ar
rived home late in 1919. He fought
in every battle that the Division
did; he came out Of the war alive
and sane. Few men in the county
have done more for their country
than did Chris who went through
BlancMont and lived.

of Picardy, his division was moved
over to the Amiens district and on
May 28th attacked the strongly for
titled village Of Cantigny. They
carried the place in great fashion,
everything worked strictly on a
schedule and no one Jagged behind
that could walk. However in the
midst of the affair Lyndell collided
with hunk of fast travelling
shrapnel and took the count. Since
then his right arm has been more
or less a nuisance. He was sent
back to the states to train raw re-
cruits and finished up the war on
this side. He is not yet entirely re-
covered from his wound and still
receives government compensation.
