Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book offers a firsthand account of the experiences of Base Hospital 32, a unit of American medical professionals who served in France during World War I. The author, a member of the hospital staff, vividly details the unit's mobilization in Indianapolis, training at Fort Harrison, and subsequent transatlantic voyage aboard the troop ship "George Washington." The book provides a unique perspective on the challenges and triumphs of wartime medical service, capturing the anxieties and triumphs of a group of individuals facing the realities of conflict. Through the authorâ₠™s keen observations, readers are offered glimpses into the daily lives of the nurses, doctors, and enlisted men, as they navigate their roles and adjust to the rigors of military life. The author also recounts the chaotic scene as the unit faces a severe storm while crossing the Bay of Biscay, highlighting the dangers and uncertainties that they encountered. The book offers a glimpse into a little-known but crucial aspect of American involvement in the First World War, reminding readers of the dedication and resilience of those who served far from home. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
