[Continued from First Page.]
France August 20 ot the same year, I
came to the States April 20 of this
year and spent twenty months over
seas.
"After our battalion landed in St.
Nazaire, France, we proceeded to
Cliaumont where general Headquar
ters for General Pershing and his
staff were being prepared. We laid
wires and made all things in readi
ness for the coming of the com
mander. We were attached to the !
First Corps of the First Army and
were changed to Neuf Chateau, pro
ceeding from that station to I.a i
Ferte Sous Jouarre, where we again j
established headquarters. During the I
Chateau Thierry offensive we moved j
right along, virtually losing our |
identity as a Telegraph Battalion, al
though we still held the name. We
laid lines and operated telegraph
stations, doing field battalion work
under shell fire. Among our duties
was the placing of lines of com
munication up to the trenches and
to the regimental headquarters.
"After the finish of the Chateau-
Thierry fighting we returned to Ville
>j'euve. retiring behind the lines for
rest. We were at Saint Mihiel, Le
Verdun and then at Saizerais where
corps headquarters again were es
tablished. Here the work was not
quite so hard as it had been, but
the number of guns was enormous.
They actually were placed nine
meters apart.
"The Verdun sector was where we
did our hardest work. We had head
quarters at Karecourt. We moved
forward as fast as possible. There
was cut one main road to the front
and we had to lay wires and at the
same time give all our trucks for
transportation of wounded soldiers
and supplies.
"The traffic congestion was awful.

MONDAY EVENING,
i I remember at one time having a
| convoy of eight trucks under my com
] mand. It took us thirty hours to
| move thirty kilometers. This was
j due to the terrific shell fire as well
| as the crowded road.
"However, after a period of serv
! ice at Karecourt we were trans
ferred to Harricourt and then to
Chateau Cliehery, where we were
when the armistice was signed. We
were then removed to Tonnerre
where we spent five months, simply
following a training schedule. We
were then transferred to the Fifth
Corps for demobilization, and later
were sent to Lemans where we spent
two weeks. After two more weeks
in Brest we set sail on the Seattle
April 8, arriving in New York April
20. I
"Camp Upton was our first Amevi
| can camp. We left that place and
| reached Camp Dix, N. J. Bast Fri-
I day we were reviewed formally in
