Yesterday I mentioned the WW1 Centennial Committee for NYC’s social media. I have done, I think, three of these posts now and linked the first two to the Strawfoot FB page. What I intend to do now is embed my posts here on the blog itself.

Keith, you are such a busy man. Thanks for including us in your interests.
Thanks, Kathy. I hope you’ve been well.
My father was a surgeon member of the New York Hospital – Cornell unit that left for France in Sept 1917 after basic training at Governors Island. They were designated an orthopaedic surgical unit and stationed at Base Hospital #9 in Chateauroux, France. More anon.

Dr. Schrock, what a wonderful story. Thank you for sharing. I volunteer at Governors Island and would indeed love to hear more of your father’s story.
