HEROIC WORK DONE
BY MEN OF C.A.Ill.C.
Triumphs of Service at
in France.
Great Battles on Front
Wttr tiororspondonts' Headquarters,
iiltirch 16.-it is inthe great battles
that you see the heroic side of their
work, these officers and men of the
t‘,A .l\'I.C. Their work at the second
lnittlo oi' Ypres has become a tradi-
tion tis glorious as anything in the
history of the medical services. That
tradition has been maintained. To the
oust from Ypres, where blood-stainetl
ru~.tds ran out to Wieltje and Potijzc.
they crowned a great record in the
bitttlcs for Passchendaele. They had
tit-_liioved a. wonder of evacuation‘tlur~
ini; the Vimy engagements. After one
hurd struggle, the battleground was
reported cleared of our dead and
wounded by five o’clock in the after-
noon. But there the light railways
did marvels to assist. There was no
such assistance in the bloody beyond
or tho grim salient that grew day by
titty towards the Passchendaclc
ltidigt-__ llcroic road' work was done
by tho ciigincers. But the medicai_
history of' the October and November
battles is one of mud and slime, of
ptttlis that wound between shell-holes,
of narrow board walks paid for m
blood, of scattered `dugouts. of captur-
»~d enemy pillboxes, some of them with
thc dead 'of yesterday still waiting i'or
burial. ol’ stretcher-bearers and ambtil»
ance drivers and doctors who toiled
night and day to achieve what history
will record as the triumph of the cv-
ttt-uation at Passcliendiieie.
~ Labor Under Fire
Doctors died at the doors of their
“hospitals” while tending the wound-
cd. 'Others saw their pillboxes swept
by enemy shell that exploded almost
in the ver ~door. Stretcher-bearers-
six to a. stNetcher»-toiled down muddy
paths andup board walks for five and
six thousand yards under shell fire,
where u mis-step might mean a mud-
dy death. Those whocarried the
wounded often became wounded thein
sclvcs before, they reached the advanc-
cd dressing station that marked the
tirst point of wheeled traffic. There
thc ambulances came to help. Dai’
iiftcr day, ‘night after night, ambul-
ance drivers cautiously drove their
suffering loads along roads that were
oitcn broken with shell fire, often
marked with dead bodies of horses
und mon-always dangerous. And
buck at main dressing stations, doc-
tors anti men labored hour after hour
io case the pain of gallant men and
help them back to life. From regi-
‘tieutal aid posts far in the advance
arcs to advance dressing stations and
from there to the main dressing sta-
tions the work was done at night by
lump or lantern light or by- the un-
certain fitful glare of candies.
Such is the heroic work of the C.
A.M_C. There is another work.
'l‘ltc Ypres salient is the graveyard of
sin empire, the graveyard oi' France.

nuds. Thcrc has been no cpidcmir.
'i‘he medical men have saved human-
ity from a cntustroblie which would
aptiii even present history.
The Field Ambulance '
Atid the backbone oi’ the medical
services is the field ambulance. Last
night the enemy put over a heavy
trench mortar barrage on part of our
line. .One of our men was severely
wounded-his leg broken and his side
crushed. He was treated first by the
regimental _stretcher-bearers, who are
competent men selected from the bat-
talion. They baudnged his wounds
and bore him to a regimental aid post-
iu the support line. Once there, he
was altogether in the hands of the
C.A.M.C. That regimental aid post
was far underground, in a small dug-
out with room for scarcely more than
half`a. dozen stretchers. Tile wounded
man was 'carried by stretcher to a
relay post. There untired bearers
carried on to the advanced dressing
station. Here his bandages were ex-
amined. He was thoroughly warmed,
given hot drinks, dry sicits and a cig-
arette. The stretcher with ite bur-
den was then placed in an ambulance.
and at five o’clock in the morning the
man had reached the main dressing
station at the Field Ambulance Heath
quarters.
The history of the casualty might
have changed in some essentials in
other parts of the line. But the gen-
eral system is that the wounded innn
gets hisfirst dressing in the trenches.
and, if seriously wounded, another at
the regimental aid posts. Unlesshc
is bleeding or'in evident distress, his
bandages are not changed at the ad-
vanced dressing station. Here the
chief considerations are to make him
warm and to send him down to the
main dressing station as fast as pos-
sible. The casualty does not always
go by liand~stretcher to A.D.B. There
are portions ol thc line where wheel-
od stretchers can be used. There are
other portions whore the light tram-
wuy draws a hospital train to _tho
main dressing station. But the great
essentials are warmth, comfort and
speed. '
- Three to a Division
There are three field ambulances to
n division-the strength is well known.
Each ambulance is composed of three
mgggong, any- one of which may he
detailed for work as a complete unit.
l visited one of those field ambulances
today. Now the field ambulance is a
mobile, self-contained unit. It does
not call for help from the Engineers,
save upon occasion. This one had
taken over an area which at first was
nothing but mud, shell holes and
waste. li turned that wilderness to
its own purpose by its own labor. lt
cleared the ground. it built hospit-
als, admission and dressing rooms and
_wat-ds. it num quarters for its -men
and horses-in addition to its trans-
port, there are three horse-drawn am-
bulances and seven motor ambulances
to a fleitl ambulance establishment.
It worked and it-"borrowetl";-and it
