DISAPPOINTED IN THIS WAR ‘Herc of One of Hottest Actions of War Complains Because He Was Wounded Early in the Fight. By E. A. BATCHELOR. Paris.—When they named that boy Northmore, fate must have laughed | loudly. It's so unlike him, The name | does not suggest the deeds this par- ticular Northmore has done recently | in France, He should have been; called Mike. Northmore Hamill is his fulk name and he lives in Detroit, Mich., when he js home. A little over two years ago he was In the senior class at high school, & smallish, bashful youngster | with an engaging smile. Now he is) Private Hamill, United States marine| corps, convalescent from two wounds, | one af the many heroes of one of the} hottest actions of the war, i ees) “hard-boiled” soldier. Private Hamill has been a@ little! disappointed in this war. It has some good points, of course, but he feels} that he was ¢hented because, as he| expresses it, he “didn’t see much of the fight.” Twice wounded and still he didn’t see much of a certain fight! Hero is Private Hamill’s story as he told it bashfully, even apologetic: . after I had given him a cigarette of a popular brand, ae! gavotte that has Leen hard to get in France? Northmore Had Hard Luck. “Yes, it was a good fight, tha tle affair at Belleau Woods. I mis the best part of it because I had the | rotten luck to be wounded early, but the rest of the boys had a busy time. | “We advanced in broad daylight | through a wheat field with the Hun} machine gun bullets reaping the grain} around us as 1 s though it had been done with ¢ ythe. Then we} got into the woods where they had plenty, of guns and plenty of cover. My platoon was a little in advance of | the rest of the company, and we had| almost reached the ¢ ng on the far side of the woods when we ran into a nest of machine guns, “We had no hand grenades withe us | 60 all there was to do was to try to! pick off the gunners with our rifles. “All of a sudden, something ex-| ploded right among four of us that were lying near a rock, I felt some- thing like a needle stub in each leg and knew that I had been hit. Billy, | one of my pals, got a plece of the} Tend grenade, for that is what had! gone off, through the steel helmet. It went into his skull and he groaned a couple of times and was gone. Two cther. men had been wounded, too, tusking, four casualties for one mfsly littleyhand grenade. Did you ever hear of such luck? “We hud to use Billy’s body as a kind ef breast-work, for things were) getting pretty hot about then and the poor fellow was gone and there was’ no use of the rest of us being ex- posed, “J could still work my rifle, for the pleces of metal in my legs weren't very big and they didn’t hurt very | much, Finally all my ammunition was ; gene and I had to roll Billy over and use his cartridges. I hated to do it— | it gave me the creeps—but what else | was there to do when I was all out of | shells? “Finally we got orders to fall back | to the advanced dressing station, which was behind a big rock, and the bullets pinging around and chipping off pieces of stone all the time. There was a hospital man from the navy | there and he certainly was a cool one. | He bandaged us up as calmly as it | there was not such a thing as a war going on. “Then another fellow and I started for the next dressing station where | there was a surgeon and we could get a litt¥e better care.“ The other as hit in the face and was ed up that he couldr't sée. “blesseg e face a s 60 re Kda't_sée. wa€ouldn’t step on my left lez, 6c T | Navy Man Cool. | | guided him and he held me up ana ; we got along very well. “Wimally_we got back. into the little PIMELY?
