The Appellate Court in reversing
and remanding the ruling agreed

from the center to the east bank
went under water, and the section
to the west side fell partly on the
bank and partly In shallow water.
Moments later dozens Of men
bobbed to the surface. Some swan

swirling in the current. They were
swept toward a pontoon bridge
north Of the. original crossing site.
Many on Bridge Injured.
Many were injured. Some were
horribly mangled and pinned be-
tween steel Orders. Others we're
buried in debris under the water.
Red Cross vehicles streamed to-
ward the structure and an aid sta
ton was set up. Capt. George Bar
Der of Monticello, Calf, division
chaplain, administered last rites to
the dying.
Scores of troops raced onto the
pontoon bridge to pull men from
the water. In the middle of the
rescue operations a German shell
landed nearby, and fragments cut
down several men.
An outstanding hero was Sergt.
George Aneson of Brooklyn, N Y.
He helped a lieutenant colonel and a
captain pull a corporal from the
water at a pontoon, but left when
he saw two men struggling to keep
hold Of wreckage about midway be-
tween the pontoon and the wrecked
bridge
Without stopping to throw off his
heavy combat boots, Aneson yanked
off his trousers and jumped into the
water with a heavy rope which Pvt.
Theodore Gates of Presto, Pa, had
tried vainly to throw to the. men
from his position waist-deep in wa
ter on the edge of the bank
Men on Log Saved.
One man on the log was an en-
gineer severely hurt when the bridge
collapsed The other was Corpl. Roy
Larson of Erie, Pa, who had swum
out to help the wounded man, but
had become exhausted and numbed
with cold.
Aneson swan 100 yards, fixed the
rope to the piece of wreckage, and
the three men were hauled to safety
by Gates and 1t. Col. Frank Helix
kila of Cooper, Tex. The colonel
had stripped to his underwear, ready
to enter the water.
Sergt. George L. Wolsey, Highland
Park, Mich, was working on one side
of the bridge and looked east when

said, waving his hand slowly from

again" Pvt. Hughes went out from
the west end of the bridge to bring
in wounded men. "One night he
said, -four engineers were hurt by a
shell. Pvt. Hughes was dog-tired
on his feet and busy with traffic
He looked around and asked for
volunteers to get those boys off the
bridge. There weren't any takers.
Pvt. Hughes got in a jeep and went
out by himself and brought them in.
Another time shell hit tank
and knocked out the driver Pvt.
Hughes went out alone again and
pulled the fellow OUTPUT he was
