PUTNAM Sapper Charles Gagne, who entered the Canadian army in 1915, 1s back in Putnam, his birthplace and old home city, with a record of war experiences that only a few Connecticut men can claim. Thrice wounded during hard cam. paigning on the western front, he has returned here in good health and in splendid spirits, one of a small num- ber of men to come back of all that went_overseas with him in the or inal battalion to which he was attach ed. Sapper Gaghe also saw service i Egypt, but he put in the greater part of his time campuigning in France and Belgium and the record of the number of engagements he participated in reads like a list of the great battles of the war. Gagne was working in Canada, as an electrician installing motors, back in 1915, when the inspiration to enlist came to_him. “Hundreds of boys were going over,” be said in discussing his volunteering on Tuesday. “so I thought I would just dip in for the show. “I am, an American and T am proud to say that I showed them up there in Canada that we were not afraid to fight. I am proud, too, of the fact that of the 175 men who were mustered out a few days ago in the group I was in at Montreal after arriving from over- seas there were 90 American citizens.” Gagne enlisted first as a_bandsman and was assigned to the 10th battalion. Later, as the Canadian forces were rapidly cut to pieces as they made their famous record as fighters against overwhelming German hordes, he was transferred to the 119th infani he passed through the fortunes of war he served in the 52nd Infantry battal- ion and ultimately came back to the 10th battalion, doing engincering work. He received in the hard campaigning ir which he took part on the western fsont wounds in the leg, shoulder and side, getting these at Passchendaale ridge the sccond batile at Ypres and at Cambrai, whichh latter fight he describes as one of the most desperate in which the Canadians had a part. As a_member of the engineers, he was shifted from one active sector of the front to the other, 5o he was in for most of the big shows, sometimes, in_the front lines, sometimes in re- serve. He was in the reserve with a Canadian outfit when the Americans cleaned up the Germans in the Chateau Thierry fight. His stay in Egypt was brief—only three months. The engine work there only at night, he account of the teriffc heat, 2 were finally withdrawn and returned to France, where they got back into the milling with a vengeance. Gagne helped doing the sapping work at Vimy ridge, where the British planted 1,000,000 pounds of explosives under the German lines and eventual- Iy blew them to picces in the greatest mining accomplishment of the war. “There were times” he said on Tuesday when we sappers were working just a few feet under the heels of the Germans who were keep- ing virgil with their eyes glued on| our trench systems in front of them.| We had to work in absolute silence, | at times in water up to our waists, but we kept carving our through the | soil until we got to our ob-| 3 . and we had our reward later} when the mines w t 1 saw| an explosion of mines ve laid the | s for that blew 6,000 Germans into | i pressing call fflri fit to which C 2 thrown into ‘the lines on the western, front after the men had received only months There was! stop the ! old on Tue: linst g German dri day of oper: chine gun dvancing of Germans | mowing them down until he sickened | and asked another to take his dropped wrecked the gun position killed the = that had L Gagne says that Putnam look: to him.
