[Sidenote: The Service of Supply.]
Nothing that we have in France better reflects the efficiency and
devotion to duty of Americans in general than the Service of Supply
whose personnel is thoroughly imbued with a patriotic desire to do its
full duty. They have at all times fully appreciated their responsibility
to the rest of the Army and the results produced have been most
gratifying.
[Sidenote: The Medical Corps.]
Our Medical Corps is especially entitled to praise for the general
effectiveness of its work both in hospital and at the front. Embracing
men of high professional attainments, and splendid women devoted to
their calling and untiring in their efforts, this department has made a
new record for medical and sanitary proficiency.
[Sidenote: The Quartermaster Department.]
The Quartermaster Department has had difficult and various tasks, but it
has more than met all demands that have been made upon it. Its
management and its personnel have been exceptionally efficient and
deserve every possible commendation.
[Sidenote: Ordnance Department, Signal Corps and Engineer Corps.]
As to the more technical services, the able personnel of the Ordnance
Department in France has splendidly fulfilled its functions both in
procurement and in forwarding the immense quantities of ordnance
required. The officers and men and the young women of the Signal Corps
have performed their duties with a large conception of the problem and
with a devoted and patriotic spirit to which the perfection of our
communications daily testify.
