OUR HEROES
By Ted MOdrOwSki

OUR HEROES
Staff sergeant Ray Sckatulski
has been the recipient of cita-
ton for action beyond the call
of duty. In volunteering to aid
in rescue work, he himself be-
came a victim after making
several trips to aid his wounded
buddies. He holds the Purple
Heart.
Pfc. George Cable is still in
the hospital recovering from
wounds received in action.
This was the second time
George was wounded. He went
out of his way to speed the sup
ply of ammunition and it was
while so engaged that he was
wounded.
Staff sergeant Leonard Rouler
wounded in the battle of Luxen-
berg has been overseas since
March 1914. He saw action in
many of the major battles.
Kaiser Szczbiak T/5 is re-
covering from wounds suffered
overseas. He reports in his last
letter that he still has his leg in
a cast. Kaiser only complains
of one thing-he wants more
mail from his friends back
home. Write TO T/5 c. F.
Szczerbiak, 3433O853, Ward 5l8,
Fletcher General Hospital, Cam
bridge, Ohio.
These boys are all from our
shop on military Withdrawals.
We wish them all quick recov-
cry and Godspeed home. If pos
sible, drop them a few lines.

On The

BY Paul Mcclellan

Our last unit meeting in
February was well attended but
still not up to expectations.
When will you fellows realize
that although you have the
largest labor organization in the

achieve results by thinking and
talking unionism. Attend your

AN old-fashioned treatment
for an aching ear was to have

the cause of the trouble.

that what seems to be q simple

to be followed by another. Each
attack leaves its mark, and even
