Our local committee was one of 14 from aa many epunties when thwe wore 40,000' men at Fort Jackson and always 1,600 in its General hospital. With the closing of the war the Richland county chapter, American Red Cross, as being close to Fort Jackso^ and the Columbia Vet- erazu hospital, was given the lead ing part for entertainment of the men at* both hospitals. Calls on our local chapter for participation in entertainment such as Christmas and on other oc casions decreased notably during 1947.
