THE ARMY SURGEON.
With American Armies in the Field,
Oct. 14.— (Correspondence of The As
sociated Press)—War has not cal
loused the sensibilities of the Ameri
can army surgeon. Nothing stands
out finer or nobler than the tender
care and earnest solicitude with which
the American military doctors handle
their soldier patients.
In a three-day trip through the St.
Mihiel sector the correspondent of
The Associated Press had many op
portunities of observing the work of
the American medical men. He visit
ed a number of field dressing sta
tions and also several hospitals just
back of the battle line, through which
hundreds of wounded Americans were
passing.
Disabled American soldiers, from
the time their wounds are dressed at
the advance casualty station to the
time they arrive at the last base hos
pital, receive the most sympathetic
and tender care at the hands of the
army doctors. They get better care
and more attentive treatment than an
average person would in peace times.
To render the soldier free from pain,
to make him comfortable, to cheer
his spirit, the American military doc
tor will exhaust every recourse, will
sacrifice sleep and food and all per
sonal thought of himself.
Thousands of instances occur every
day where army physicans, so ab
sorbed and so sympathetically inter
ested in their patients, will keep an
anxious and unbroken vigil over the
progress of their condition, and will
rest only when ordered to do so by a
superior officer.
Besides the use of aneasthetics the
Yankee doctor, caring for his fight
ing comrade only as he would care
for a brother, resorts to a hundred
other means of relieving the wounded
man’s distress. In the actual battle
zone he has to act as physician and
nurse, for no women are permitted in
the front lines. It is always impres
sive to see the gentle, cautious way
he places his patients in bed, the in
finite pains he takes to cause them
as little suffering as possible w en
applying or removing dressings, and
how kindly and reassuringly he
speaks to them.
The ambulance drivers and stretch
er bearers spare no pains to see that
the sick and wounded in transit from
the front over broken French roads
suffer no hardships or discomfort.

aboard today. They had brought in
six big transports, including three
former German liners. Already the
soldiers were marching to camp, and
on board the destroyers things were
being made ship-shape for the brief ,
stay in port and then for the next ad
venture out beyond the capes, for
with submarines off the port there is
ceaseless vigilance, with always the
chance of something happening, and
everyone on the tip-toe of expecta
tion.
The reports brought back of the
last cruise were of the best. It had
been comparatively quiet and the
transports had been brought through
without sign of a submarine. In fact
it was £0 promising the previous Sun
day that thte commander of the fleet
remarked they were going to have a
quiet day.
But at nine in the morning there
was an alarm, with all the gun and
torpedo crews springing to their
posts, and after that four successive
alarms through this quiet day, though
none of the alarms developed into an
actual attack. It showed, however,
the steady tension even when condi
tions looked best, for it was known
that hostile craft had been lurking off
the beach docks near the mouth of the
harbor and one of our big repair ships
had been attacked as it came in a
few weeks ago.
On the big destroyers the crew is
always on watch during a convoy.
There are lookouts in the crow’s nest
high up on the foremast, far forward
at the tip of the bow, at port and
starboard, forward and aft. Besides
there there is the gun crew watch, the
depth charge watch, and the torpedo
watch always on the quivive for the
sound of the bell which calls it into
action.
