CHAPTER IX

HOMEWARD BOUND

At 7:00 A. M. Monday, May 5th, “B” Company “fell in” in front of the

Abbaye with full equipment, and at eight o’clock, with the command:

SQUADS RIGHT, MARCH, moved out with the remaining troops, from the town

that had been our home for nearly half a year, and our long journey

homeward had at last really begun. By easy marches we reached Les

Laumes-Alesia Station at 10:00 A. M., where we were given a big dinner

by the American Red Cross, consisting of a good beef stew, bread, jam,

coffee (with both milk and sugar in it), apple sauce, cigarettes and

candy, which was followed by hot chocolate and cakes given to us by

pretty Y. M. C. A. girls. At 12:30 P. M. we entrained in American “60

Hommes-20 Chevaux,” which we had lined with bed sacks filled with straw

and about thirty-five men to a car, which proved the most comfortable

ride we had had since our arrival in Europe nearly a year previous. We

made several stops to get coffee or warmed corned beef. The trip lasted

about 42 hours, arriving at St. Jean Station, Bordeaux, at 4:00 A. M.

May 7th, from which we marched to the “Entrance Camp,” reaching there

at 9:00 A. M. and immediately having breakfast served. The men were

kept pretty busy during the day on various details, and the following

morning, May 8th, we left this camp and marched about a mile to the

“Permanent Camp.” The memory of this camp will probably remain with

most of us by reason of the “MILL,” which was the first thing to which

we were introduced and which consumed most of the conversation during

our stay here.

The MILL was well named in every respect. First we were marched into

a “hangar” very similar to those used to house air planes. This had a

dirt floor and after unslinging packs the men filed along one side of

the hangar leaving their rifles in a heap, then filed back to their

packs. Next they took their blankets which had been rolled together

before leaving the Entrance Camp, and threw them in a pile. Next,

everything the soldier carried was placed in his shelter half and

carried thru a wicket gate, by which stood a long desk behind which

were several men. The first asked your name and army serial number,

which he wrote on two slips of paper which you had to sign. This seemed

quite natural because no one knew what they were signing, and if anyone

should stop to ask he would be informed that he would learn that in due

time, a statement which no one doubted because no one thought any more

about that phase of it, probably for the reason that about one-tenth of

a doughboy’s time is spent in signing papers he does not know anything

about, the same being part of his military training.

The next man took the “dog tags” and asked your name and number and

compared your answer with the tags; if they agreed all well and good,

if they disagreed something was checked on the slip of paper you had

signed and you began to wonder how many checks you would get and if

each check meant an additional month in France, or an extra tour of K.

P. The next man gave you a Red Cross bag which often brought a smile

because of the name--“American Red Cross” was stamped in ink on a white

patch on the bag, otherwise you would have looked for a deduction on

the next pay roll. At this time someone in the farthest corner of the

building called out a number which sounded like a cell number, but

which proved to be nothing more than their manner of ushering you to

a certain litter into which you dumped everything you had, from your

steel helmet which had just been painted to your last handkerchief

which you had failed to wash. The object of this being for the man to

see if you had more than he did. If you did not have as much, he handed

you a barrack bag and helped you to put all your things into it except

such personal things as your pocket book, tooth brush, shaving brush,

etc. These you put in the Red Cross bag, then handed your slip of paper

to the man who then asked what you had in the barrack bag or on your

back. If you guessed right, all right; if you guessed wrong he checked

an item on the slip of paper.

If you did not like your blouse he would give you a chance to draw

again. If your underclothes were too large for you he would give you

a chance to draw a larger pair, and so on. After you were all out of

breath talking to this man, you hung your Red Cross Bag around your

neck, threw your Barrack Bag on your shoulder and marched out of the

door across a wood pile to another building in which was another long

row of desks, and for a moment you thought you were going to get your

discharge papers toote de suite, but these hopes were soon dashed to

the ground. An officer handed you your Service Record, which seemed

rather a strange thing because the company clerk said that he had it

when you asked him the day before you left Flavigny. Struggling along

with this in one hand and dragging your barrack bag with the other you

passed down the line until you came to a blank file with a typewriter

and a man behind it.

Here you stopped and handed him your Service Record, after which he

asked you your name, number, name and address of your wife or mother.

He evidently wanted to know this in the event you did not come through

the mill alive he could advise your nearest relative that you had been

killed in action, or words to that effect. When you afterwards inquired

what this slip was you were informed that it was a certificate to show

that you had been through the mill. But why should they issue such a

certificate before you had been through? Probably the government took a

chance like the doughboy does when he signs the pay roll a month before

he gets paid. If he did not sign re would not get paid and often when

he does sign he don’t get paid, so “sanferriens.” Any way this man kept

the Service Record, “mill slip,” and all, and you were ushered into the

engine room.

There was a great racket going on and your heart was beating like a

trip hammer. You remembered you had not cut your toe nails for several

weeks and you wondered if they would scratch your neck. You also

wondered what part of your body went in first. Someone ordered you to

move along, and along you moved until you came to a bin which reminded

you of where your grandfather kept his potatoes. You looked around for

the man who was administering the “Dope,” because you heard nobody

scream or groan--or were some of those noises groans? Through the

middle of this bin ran a railroad and in the middle of the track stood

a man issuing orders, none of which you understood. Besides, the man in

the bin behind you was talking louder than the man in your bin, so that

you heard more of what he said than of what your man said; but after

listening for a while you gleaned the fact that you were supposed to

take off all your clothes, which you did.

By that time two large doors in the side of the building opened and

out came a car that looked like the ones they have in circuses to

carry animals in, which was divided into compartments with numbers

corresponding with the number of your bin, which were full of shelves

and hooks. Into your compartment on this car you put everything you

had except the articles in the Red Cross bag. This you still had hung

around your neck. Everything had to be taken out of the Barrack bag;

your puttees could not be wound; your underclothes and socks which

you took off were not put in the car however. They said this was to

kill the cooties, and suddenly you had a feeling of pity for the poor

cootie. As suddenly as the car came out of these big doors it went back

again and the doors were closed; then you were ordered to pick up your

soiled underclothes and “move along.” A little further along you threw

your soiled underclothes out of a window marked “Salvaged Clothes.” You

were wearing your shoes but nothing else. As you passed out of this

room you were handed a towel and as you entered the next room you were

met by a couple of doctors who asked you if you had been to Paris and

then refused to take your word that you had not. From here you entered

the bath room where you had the grand and glorious feeling of a real

shower bath, although the so-called soap was beyond description. From

here you passed another long line of doctors that reminded you of your

first day at camp, and then you passed into a room which reminded you

of Gimbel Brothers at home. Your famous slip of paper which had been

kept in your Red Cross Bag, now came into use and you began to learn

the reason for it. Everything that your Supply Sergeant at Flavigny

had refused to give you was handed to you here. First you were given a

suit of underclothes and a pair of socks to take the place of the ones

you had salvaged. Then down the line you went, getting new blankets for

the ones you had left in the hangar, and new trousers for the ones you

had said were no good, and even a new tape for your dog tags. From here

you passed into another bin similar to the first one, and while you

were putting on your underclothes out came the car with all your things

on it, but everything so hot you could hardly touch them. Poor cooties,

not a one remained alive to tell of what happened inside.

After dressing, which you had to do in four seconds less than a minute,

you stuffed everything into the barrack bag except your overcoat which

you put on, and, with barrack bag over your shoulder and your slip of

paper in your hand, you passed into another room. Here you handed said

slip of paper to a man whom you could just see over the top of a heap

of them, then passed by a man who examined the condition of your hair

and then passed outside with the perspiration streaming down your face

and marched about two blocks down the street to another building. There

you completed your toilet and were guided to your company barracks

which was either 212, 214 or 216, and there you set yourself down more

exhausted than you were the day you marched from Florent to Varimont.

But you were still in the army though not in the mill, and there was

work to be done. The first detail was to carry all the rifles from the

mill to the barracks. You were given dinner and then given more detail,

and more detail the next day.

Friday, May 9th, the commanding officer was notified that Company “B”

would embark the next day, and accordingly, at 5:00 P. M. Saturday,

May 11th, the company was lined up and marched to the American Docks,

reaching them about 7:00 P. M. A peculiar coincidence it was, that

during the greater part of this march it rained. It had been bright

and clear all day but when we started on our last march in France the

sky became darkened, with a heavy cloud, and shortly after we had

started for the docks it began to rain and did not clear until after

we had embarked. After reaching the dock, we were served sandwiches,

chocolate, cigarettes, candy, and a handkerchief by the Red Cross.

Miss Colby, the Y. M. C. A. worker who had been with us all winter at

Flavigny, followed us to the dock and there bade us good-bye. She was

not to return to America for several months. The rest of the Y. M. C.

A. outfit had departed with Regimental Headquarters. Mr. Allen, the

K. of C. worker who had been with us at Flavigny, returned to America

with us. We embarked at 8:00 P. M. May 10th, on the good ship “OTSEGO,”

formerly the Prince Eitel Fredrich III, one of the German liners that

had been turned over to the American Government for the transportation

of troops to America. It was her second trip in this service.

The trip was long, somewhat tedious, and uneventful. The food was

excellent, the best we had had since we had left home. The Azores

lay along our route and we passed close enough to see some of the

buildings. A couple of schools of small whales were sighted, and

porpoises were continually playing about the ship. The third or fourth

day out we began to have trouble with the boilers, which continued

nearly all the way across, which accounted for the length of the

voyage. On the morning of the 25th we passed the “Ambrose” Lightship

and soon after sighted land. We expected to dock in the afternoon,

but it was five o’clock when we entered the Upper Bay at New York and

dropped anchor off St. Georges, S. I. Many small boats loaded with

sight-seers came by. The Mayor’s Committee of New York City brought

a band to play for us. The next morning, May 26th, 1919, about eight

o’clock we weighed anchor and sailed up the river to Hoboken, where

we docked a half hour later. We were given a light lunch by the Red

Cross and were then put on a river boat and went to the West Shore

docks, where we got on a train and went to Camp Merritt. It was a grand

and glorious feeling to be riding in an American train once more.

We arrived at Camp Merritt about 11:00 A. M. and had lunch shortly

after. In the afternoon we again went through the mill or “Sanitary

Process” and the next morning went to a different part of the camp,

where the company was broken up into Casual Detachments. The men from

most of the Southern and Western camps being assigned to Hoboken

Casual Detachments, and the others into Camp Dix, Camp Upton, or Camp

Grant Casual Detachments. We did not move out, however, until Sunday

afternoon, June 1st. Passes were issued daily, however, and a majority

of the men took advantage of this privilege and went home to visit

their folks. At 2:00 P. M. June 1st, the Camp Dix C. D. entrained for

Camp Dix, where we arrived at 7:00 P. M. and immediately turned in all

our equipment and then marched to the barracks formerly occupied by the

Third Battalion.

June 2nd: All company records were turned in and Company “B” was only

a memory. The days dragged slowly by until Thursday, June 5th, when we

had our final examination. One incident happened at this time which to

us seemed almost tragical. A Welcoming Committee from Elizabeth came

down Wednesday, June 4th, three days after we entered Camp Dix, to see

the Elizabeth boys, and upon inquiring at Camp Headquarters for our

location, were told that we were not in the Camp, as they had no record

of us. This probably was the reason why several outfits that arrived

in camp as late as Wednesday were discharged ahead of us. Saturday

morning, June 7th, is a day in the lives of the remaining men of

Company “B” 311th Infantry never to be forgotten, as it was then that

we received our final pay and discharge from the Army and once more

became civilians.

MEMBERS OF COMPANY “B,” 311TH INFANTRY WHO WERE DECORATED WITH THE

DISTINGUISHED SERVICE CROSS.

FIRST SERGEANT, CHARLES A. ROBBINS.

On September 26, 1918, at Bois de Grande Fontaine, two kilometers

northeast of Vieville-en-Haye, Sergeant Bobbins, although painfully

wounded in the knee, during advance, he continued to the objective,

rendered valuable assistance in reorganizing his company and refused to

retire until ordered to do so by Company Commander. He thereupon helped

to carry several other wounded to the First Aid Station before his own

condition was observed and he was evacuated.

FIRST SERGEANT, TRACY S. WHITE.

For extraordinary heroism in action near Ferme des Loges, France, 19th

October, 1918. When the position his company held was enfiladed and

communication to the rear cut off, he volunteered to carry a message to

the battalion commander after several runners had been killed in the

attempt. Crossing ground swept by intense machine gun and artillery

fire, he delivered the message and returned with orders as to the

disposition of the company.

SERGEANT, JOSEPH H. FAHEY.

On September 26, 1918, at Bois de Grande Fontaine, two kilometers

northeast of Vieville-en-Haye, when his platoon was enfiladed by

several enemy machine guns, made three attempts to rush same, retiring

only when he and his companions had been badly wounded or killed.

Sergeant Fahey was also decorated with the French Croix de Guerre.

SERGEANT, EDWARD J. WELSH.

On September 24, 1918, at Bois de Grande Fontaine, two kilometers

northeast of Vieville-en-Haye, while his platoon was holding the

outpost line, under heavy shell fire and in the open, Sergeant (then

Corporal) Welsh’s platoon commander and all platoon sergeants were

killed or wounded. He promptly took charge, reorganizing his platoon,

and held his sector until relieved.

PRIVATE 1st CLASS, JOSEPH S. ALDRIDGE, JR.

On the night of September 24-25, 1918, at Bois de Grande, Fontaine,

two kilometers northeast of Vieville-en-Haye, Pvt. 1st Class Aldridge

On the night of September 24-25, 1918, at Bois de Grande Fontaine, two

kilometers northeast of Vieville-en-Haye, Private 1st Class Slover

carried messages repeatedly between Company and Battalion Headquarters

through a heavy enemy barrage; also took place of a wounded litter

bearer and brought in wounded under heavy shell fire.

MEMBERS OF COMPANY “B,” 311TH INFANTRY MENTIONED IN 78TH DIVISION

GENERAL ORDERS NO. 6

EXTRACT: “The Division Commander desires to record in the General

Orders of the 78th Division some of the deeds of men of this command

which were marked by the display of the highest of soldierly

qualities--initiative, dauntless courage, self-sacrifice and steadfast

devotion to duty which offered a constant inspiration to all who

came to have knowledge thereof and which contributed largely, in the

aggregate, to the success of the division’s operations against the

enemy.”

1st LIEUT. ROY A. SCHUYLER, (Deceased)

On September 26, 1918, at Bois de Grande Fontaine, after holding

outpost line with his platoon for three days under continuous shell

fire, without shelter and under most trying weather conditions on being

ordered to advance, led his men with most conspicuous gallantry through

a heavy barrage, took his objective, reorganized his command, where,

while posting men in observation in front of his position, with utmost

disregard of his personal safety, he was killed.

2nd LIEUT. RAYMOND B. DUNN.

On September 26, 1918, at Bois de Grande Fontaine, advanced with his

platoon through heavy enemy barrage; after heavy losses joined company

at objective with remaining five men, showing great coolness and

courage in organizing and defending new position under fire.

SERGEANT WILLIAM M. REID.

On September 26, 1918, at Bois de Grande Fontaine, after his platoon

leader was killed, took command of platoon and handled same most

gallantly and efficiently, repulsing two enemy counter-attacks.

SUPPLY SERGEANT JOSEPH LEVY.

On September 26, 1918, at Bois de Grande Fontaine, exhibited continuous

gallantry in action. Several times he brought up ration parties through

heavy shell fire to the outpost line. During enemy counter-attacks he

assisted company commander to reorganize right flank of company.

CORPORAL JOSEPH R. McGARRITY.

On September 24, 1918, at Bois de Grande Fontaine, when his platoon

leader and sergeants were killed or wounded, assisted Corporal Welsh

to reorganize his platoon under heavy shell fire, and to hold position

until relieved.

PRIVATE LORY L. PRICE.

On September 26, 1918, at Bois de Grande Fontaine, being posted to

cover his company’s left flank with his automatic rifle, held his post

under heavy shelling and machine gun and rifle fire and was mainly

responsible for repulsing repeated enemy counter-attacks from 6:00 A.

M. to 6 P. M. He thus set for his comrades a remarkable example of

devotion to duty and cool and unhesitating self-sacrifice.
