In the first place I may say that it is just about 18 months since I left England for France with the 4th Canadian Railway. Troops; 18 months of active service and one I continuous grind except for my 10'd-aysu leave in Paris in 1917. Now I am enjoying an enforced rest, one that is very welcome. While it has not been my chance to go "over the top, our company has been as close to the danger zone as any unit.` `Often from my workshop (before the re- treat of the spring) I have watched thci brave boys march past to the front line,` ]-we took off our caps to them--hcroes all-- l `many never came back. Several times Il -asked for a transfer to the infantry huti was refused and finally was told thcrel was on use my asking as my work was con- 1-sidered more useful than carrying a rifle. And finally hard work got me Blighty' the .~'-wcetest word to a war-worn soldier. I I `after "home and "Canarl-.1. And now for my story. It is some trip from a base hospital in France to -.1 lt0.<- pital in England a stretcher case and; wh:1t difference you notice in the two! ;countries. It just took two (lays to lIl'll\'(`: lthe trip in two Red Cross trains, although ,the distzmce from the place where the lmse hospital is located to the French sen- 'pnrt is hut nine miles.
