RAINBOW BOYS
IN THICKEST OF
THE FIGHTING
i
SAN FRANCISCO. Jan fi The
pride which the men of the famous
Rainbow division take in their or
* ganization is reflected in a letter
from France recently received here
from Sergeant Leslie II Robinson of
the 117th Held battalion, signal corps
Robinson, who is a Kansas City news
paper man. writes in part as follows:
"Headquarters 42d Division, the
Rainbow Division. Division Signal Of
fice. Nov. 13, 11)18. Those of us who
have been in it for so long can hardly
realize that it is finished. It is hard
: to change within a few hours from
shells and bombs to sunshine and joy.
* There is that questioning feeling
around the heart of each of us. 'Is it
; really over?' But to see these French
I kick and squeal and throw hand gre
| nades tit each other in their wild
1 delirium of sudden happiness, you
* certainly are led to believe that some
thing is finished.% Or else getting a
good start As you have read in the
newspapers, this division has been in
the line longer than any other Ameri
can division in France. We went into
tin* line near Luneville in the middle
of February. There we were under
the command of the French. On April
1 we moved to Baccarat, where we
took over an entire divisional sector
for ourselves the first American dl
vision to do this. We remained in
this sector for thirteen weeks, and
when we wen* relieved General I)u
port, under tin* command we served.
| paid a glowing tribute to the valor i
! and comradeship of (lie men.
“We were relieved in this sector
! and sent to tlm Champagne, where
we assisted the French in stopping
the Germans on July Iff, Id and 17. in
what win to have been tile start of
their hike for Paris After piling tin
Germans so high that you had to gei
a balloon to see over them, we were
sent to the Chateau Thierry front ,
There the division cut through sev
eral crack Prussian Guard divisions
| and whipped the tar out of several
other of the enemy’s best divisions
We were in this fierce fighting longer'
than any other division in that see- i
tor. Next we were sent down near;
St. Mihiel and wo captured more vlll;
luges than any other division in the j
reduction of this salient. Aftfer or J
ganizing this new front so other j
troops could hold it we were sent up I
west to Verdun.
“And it was here that the division
continued to show that it was the
host lighting division in France. The
doughboys cracked the Kreimhihb
Stelling line at one of its most dif
ficult points. The hills were steep
and wooded and the machine gun fire
was something terrific. Hut the Rain
bow never grew dim. After the line
had been pierced we were transferred
to another corps and put on the trail
of the Hun and pushed him nineteen :
kilometers until we had captured the
heights dominating Sedan. Then the
division was relieved hv the French,
as to them should belong the glory of
entering the city which decided the
war of 1S70. And today that glorious
event is to take place, so I am told,
with the flags of the allies leading
the bands of many regiments and the
French soldiers dancing wildly in their
ecstacy.
"The boys of the division are tired. |
They have not had a relief and never j
have been to any of the leave centers
where the soldiers are supposed to J
go for a rest. All of our time has J
been devoted happily to our country,
and we feel that we have done more i
than any other division in hastening !
the end of the conflict Now that our |
worl: over here is done, we are all
anxious to return home. We feel i
that our record and our service en-j
title ns to the honor of being the
first division to return.
"We enlisted because we were
prompted by patriotic motives. We
are mighty proud of our record. We
are prouder of our friends, and we,
are especially proud of the fact that
we are representatives of the people
of the I’nited States. These profes
sions and businsses which were left j
behind by the officers and men in this
division will need these officers and
men immediately after the war
Therefore, in view of our record over
here, and taking into consideration
that the home industries will need
the members of the division at once,
we feel that we should and will bo
returned home first. The reward for
our sacrifice will be repaid if our di
vision is given the honor of returning
home first.
"8GT. LESLIE H. R0BIN80N,
"117th Field Battalion, Signal Corps."
