PAGE 6 man’s job is, the more time he has to get disgusted ) |= The Seattle Star =z] Operations | ed Have you heard the amazing story about Herbert McCarty? He is dead now, after undergoing 48 operations. McCarty, war veteran of the 79th division, was riddled by a German machine gun a few days before the armistice. He was brought home, to battle for his life nearly four years in hospitals, with 20 machine gun bullets in his body. Eighteen bullets had been removed when he died the other day at Catawissa, Pa. The other two go to the grave with him, grown into his jugular vein. . McCarty was one of the greatest of the war heroes, i He got his wounds while rescuing dying comrades lying in exposed places. a o . In the course of McCarty’s 48 operations, the surgeons removed 14 of his ribs, a col- far bone and part of one shoulder blade. The machine gun bullets made a terrific wreck of his body. Despite this, he had recovered, prior to his death, sufficiently to leave the hospital for short periods. That i : i i i Reith euch terribte physical shocks —_- Friend W.
