EXCITING TIMES
Henry McPhee, a former employe
of the Alaskan Engineering commis
sion at Nenana; writing to his
mother, Mrs. George Herrington, for
the first time tells of the part he
has taker, in the great war.
I His letter is written from Jean
! deliz, France, and he says that the
j soldiers are now allowed to tell
I their folks and friends of the places
] they have been at during the recent
| fighting.
Since February 20, 1918, Henry
has been at the front; the first time
his regiment was on the Alsace
Lorraine front, and he says that
they stayed there for five months
was sent to Chateau Thierry, where
he says, the fun really started, and
the Germans found out the fighting
qualities of the Americans, and
where the tide of battle turned
in favor of the Allies, who followed
it up until the fall of the German
army.
From the Chateau Thierry front,
his regiment with many others was
sent to take the Argonne forest.
This forest, he says, was supposed
to be the hardest forest to take in
France, and the French and English
gave the Americans five months to
take it in. To the utter astonish
ment of the British and French, the
forest was taken and occupied by
the Americans on the twelfth dav
after the advance against the enemy
|commenced; and, he says, that a
month and a half after the l'al of the
forest of Argonne, the armsitiee was
signed, the Germans having had
enough of American warfare.
His regiment (2,‘lrd Engineers)
was sent from the Argonne forest
to Verdun, where they have been
engaged in repairing the roads and
bridges so that the French and
Americans may be able to march to
Metz.
At the time his letter was written,
Henry's regiment was quartered in
a village which had not suffered
so very much from shell fire. Most
of the buildings, he says, were in
tact; the only serious damage done
was to the church, which had it
front wall blown down by shell fire,
He says he is feeling very fit and
is very anxious to come to Alasku
again, but does not know when he
will get his discharge.
Jack Hillird, deputy collector
customs at Eagle, has gone Outsi
on his annual vacation. Prior
his departure, Hilliard was st
tioned at Juneau, temporarily.
