Hitler threw his forces into the Low Countries in May, 1940, with the exhortation: “The fight that begins today will decide the destiny of the German people for 1000 years.” The Germans marched across Europe, ruthlessly utilizing the fifth column, superior air power, armored speed, paratroops and gestapo suppression of trouble behind the lines. He made his colossal blunder when he attacked the Russians in June, 1941, and an equally colossal mistake when he miscalculated the extent of Russian readiness. The Russians bled the wehrmacht

[YANK HOSPITAL!

OPEN IN FRANCE

Care of Wounded Speeded - By Staff of American

Doctors, Nurses.

By ROSETTE HARGROVE NEA Staff Correspondent

GENERAL HOSPITAL, SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE, Aug. 31.-—If every American woman who has & sweetheart, son or husband with the armed forces in this, theater could see the care her man receives if he has the misfortune of being wounded in combat, all her fears and worries would be set at rest. It would not take her very long

: | to realize that so far as our fighting

men are concerned, the best 4s not too good—and this goes for medical attention and nursing care as well as for equipment. Until recently men wounded in combat were given care in evacus ation and fleld hospitals and after a few days sent to England for further treatment. With the opene ing of this general hospital—the first general hospital to start funce tioning in liberated territory—this transportation will no longer be necessary. Here patients will’ be given everything that a completely equipped American hospital can offer. Specialists on Staff

The hospital is staffed by doctors and nurses mainly from the Unie versity of Michigan’ at Ann Arbor, It has a staff of officers, of whom many are doctors, of nurses, dietie cians, physio-therapists and enlisted men, under the command of Lt. Col. Walter Maddock. The medical staff includes emie nent specialists in bone, brain and spinal injuries, as well as general surgery. Lt. Col. Maddock is hime self an authority on general sure gery from Ann Arbor. Specialists in neurology and a psychiatrist are on the staff, Just about a month ago the Germans were still occupying the rambling old French hospital where the Americans are now installed. Walking through it today, it is hard to believe that when the unit arrived to take over it was nothing more or less than a charnel house.
