of the road to greet them; they
looked at the open plain ahead,
their view for the first time in three
years unrestricted by japanese
sentries and barbed wire fence.
There were men prematurely
old, with gray hair, sunken eyes;
men who limped from beri-beri,
brought on by the lack of proper
food; men whose bodies were
scored by tropical ulcers and other
diseases contracted during nearly
three years of living death; men
who looked up helplessly from lit
tiers, and a few who were young
looking, clean shaver and still
alert.
1t was natural that there were
few spontaneous outbursts of JOY.
Their long ordeal had taken the
bounce out of them, and they kept
an iron grip on their emotions.
There were few words. Occa-
sionally someone would say, Hell
10, Yank. Glad to see YOU" And
then nothing more. There wasn't
anything more to say. The minds
of these men were busy, bridging
the three-year blank in their lives.
After while they would smile.
Officers who had retained their
furnished badges of rank wore
them proudly on tatte-ed Till
forms.
Medical attention, showers and
toilet articles added loads of re-
atty to their freedom.
At the 92nd U. S. Evacuation
Hospital where 80 of the rescued
men were taken, Gen. Douglas
Macarthur called and greeted
them.

 From the time of it's opening this fleet club, like all other Red Cross clubs abroad, was packed with vis- itors. The men felt that 1t was a touch of home where they could get together and talk about the Brooklyn Dodgers, the Washington Redskins, or whatever happened to cross their minds.
 Clubs are but one phase of Red Cross service to men of the armed forces. Red Cross field directors are stationed at all Navy bases, ready to help the sailor solve such personal problems as may crop up. If the sailor Is called home for urgent reasons such as serious ill- ness, the Red Cross field director can verify the call through the To- cal Red Cross chapter and thus help obtain the necessary leave.
 One Red Cross field director in the Fiji Islands helped save ser- viceman $500 on lot which his wife had made arrangements to purchase back home. The field di- rector wrote to the home town chapter, explaining why the ser- viceman couldn't go through with the deal. The Red Cross chapter got the wife and the real estate people together, explained mat ters and the company refunded the $500 and called the deal off.
 Many other personal services, all of them valuable to, the indi- viduals affected, and many of them of a unique character, have been reported by Red Cross represen- tatives from all parts of the world.
 To carry on it's activities during the next twelve months, the Red Cross needs $2OO,OOO,OOO. This fund Is being raised in March and every one should give as gen. erously as possible to help main- tain the organizations services in behalf of our men in uniform.
