Now that thousands of American youths are engaged in
the greatest invasion battle of the war, the families of these
fighters are facing very severe tests. Montana along with all
other states is represented in the combat troops attacking the
French coast. The shock of the initial fighting, carried direct
from the battle front to our firesides, says the Independent
Record.
Physicians say men and women are coming to them for
aolace. We say solace, because the doctors feel medicine is of
little or no avail. The people with relatives in the invasion are
not physically i'll. They are burdened with worry for loved ones.
During these trying days thousands will turn to the church
and to their family physicians for help. Distance from the
fighting front magnifies the horrors that all know must come
to a certain percentage of Allied troops invading Hitler's
Europe. When we hear a number of Americans have given
their lives or have been wounded, we wonder if the man close to
Us was among that unfortunate group. Yet, we know that
the majority will return to us sound in body. In short, the
uncertainty and the waiting cause us to turn to our pastors and
our doctors whom we always consult when we are confronted
with problems beyond SeH-SOlutlOn.
Indeed, this war has suddenly been brought home to us
in a way that is leaving deep scars. In this period of stress,
only those of the families involved will be able to bring a
degree of comfort or relief. Experiences of veterans of the
last World war will prove of some assistance. The fact that
so many thousands of those who saw up to two years combat
service 26 years ago returned to resume normal lives is con-
vincing evidence that history shall repeat in that regard.
There are those who insist that casualties in this war are
heavier than in World war one. If we take the fighting in
Italy as an example that statement is not true. When the
number of men involved is considered, the casualties in some
actions in the first World war were greater on a percentage
basis than in numerous actions in this conflict. The weapons
of war have been improved in the last 26 years, but as far as
the ground troops go the artillery and machine guns of the
last war were capable Of creating great havoc. Anyone who
had been under fire in the 1917-1918 campaigns knows the
German artillery then was most terrifying. And, medical care
has improved as much if not more in the last 20 years than
many weapons of war.
Thus, without seeking to minimize the hazards of invasion
we have logical basis for the belief the majority Of our soldiers
shall return sound in mind and body. AS we know the majority
shall return, the chance that the man close to you will come
home is far greater than the possibility he shall be a casualty.
Let us not overlook those conclusions as we center our thoughts
on the coast of France and the other battefields that dot the
globe. And, may we not forget the sooner this great campaign
gets under way, the sooner our men shall return.
