William Crookston, Pittsburgh, san itary officer of the division, saved the lives of 1,200 men in the tirst action into which the division got, on July 14, at Chateau Thierry. Tho division was thrown into the breach so hastily that it had been uod no overseas supplies, which meant no ambulances. Fighting was territic, and the wounded accumu lated in and immediately behind the lines, where they could not be tended, in fearful numbers, but there was no way of getting them back. Colonel Crookston sent for the officers of the One Hundred and Third Supply Train and instructed them to fill their supply trucks a foot deep with the soft leafy loam of France and to spread canvas over the earth. This was done, the trucks sped to the front and for a week served as ambulances, carrying 1,- 200 men back to the hospitals. Captain H. A. Souders, organizer of Company A of tho One Hundred and Third Ammunition Train, later served with the One Hundred and Third Signal Battalion. This bat talion first flung into action on July 4 to help stem the German on slaughter at Chateau Thierry. They swept forward with the turning tide of battle and stayed in front straight through to the Vesle river. On September 8, on the Vesle river, the unit was taken out of the lines and went to the Argonne, where it stuck, with thinning ranks, until October 9, when it jumped over to the Thiaucourt sector, and, because the ranks were too weak ened to allow any resting, every man stajed in action until the sign ing of the armistice, on November 11. The lees than 500 men in the unit suffered 225 casualties and twenty-seven deaths, with a number of missing. "The Field Signal Corps men," said Captain Souders, "have accom plished more unheralded heroic deeds than the men of any other branch. To be cited or win decora tions, a man must perform some act to which there are witnesses. When a sicnal man creeps out to mend a broken wire in a hail of lire, or works for hours in full view of the enemy, unarmed, he cannot summon a gallery to sit and watch him, so he doesn't often get a medal. Here's an instance of what I mean: "At Thiaucourt I had the whole company out trying to make connec tions between battalion headquar ters. AVe did what we could; then the Boehes spotted us, and the point where we had to work was iiter ally peppered with shells dropping unceasingly. T gave orders for the eon.pany to drop back,' and we lay in a safer place, waiting all night lor the fire to cease so we could go and run the wires. When we went out again we found the con nection already made. Privates Rus sell Hodgert, of Pittsburgh, and Herbert Tarr, of Stroudsburg, un known to me, had sneaked out dur mir the night and made the connec tion. But they didn't get any medals."
