SHORT LETTER FROM DR. M. D. GWIN

Dear Folks. —I was transferred yesterday to the “Evacuation Hospital Group,” Camp Greenleaf. Our duty there is temporary and is to build up, equip, train and teach the enlisted men Who go to make a socalled “Sanitary Train,” which, when ready, will be sent east to join a division going across. All physicians coming in now are given a Lieutenant or Captain rank, according to age, 40 being the dividing line. Hence any joining from Rensselaer will be Captain. I am still a half year shy.-—(GWIN.
