Captain Rooney was overseas for many months and was at the head of the amputation division of three base hospitals, the last one being at Bordeaux where the most skillful amputation operations ,among the American soldiers were performed. Present at the party also was Rev. Thomas A. Rooney of Crown street, brother, of the officer. An enjoyaple evening was spent by all. Music and dancing were enjoved after which a buffet lunch was served. During the evening Captain Rooney told of some of his experiences. Dur- ing one interval the base hospital was moved to the rear because of the close proximity of enemy artillery fire. In all his stories he told, not of his own personal work, but of the great fortitude of the soldiers. Although many of the boyvs had lost either arms or legs, they were happy with the thought of getting home once more. The boys thought much of each other and, at one time when a fire threat- ened the hospital, several of the boys is as their light will also show Plain- preparing floats.
