The nineteenth section of the American Field Ambulance, including several Harvard men, left Paris for the front yesterday.
The section is under the command of James P. Gillespie of New York, a Yale graduate. The second transport section, consisting of fifty men and twenty ammunition trucks will leave tomorrow.
The last unit to leave this country, which sailed May 5, has also reached Paris, with eight Harvard drivers among its numbers. In all, 104 recruits for the ambulance service have arrived in the past few days, from Dartmouth, Princeton, Yale, Bowdoin, Williams, Beloit and the University. They will go directly to Paris for a short period of training, and then leave for actual service, where the men will be divided up into sections and distributed along the French front where their services are most needed in order to relieve men for the front.
