it rushed back and forth between
the first aid stations near the front
line trenches and the clearing sta
tions on the edge of the zone of
fire.
The Huh k stock chassis saw Its
first real service with the Norton
Harges Unit, Section 7, according
to the American Ked Cross.
Toward the latter part of 1917,
when the fim ambulance units
were replaced by organizations re
cruited in this country, the liuick
car was taken over by an Ameri
can army unit.
In .the great drive toward Paris'?
in the spring of litis, when the
line was pushed back in the Mou
tididier sector, the ambulance was
Captured, i
It Is believed that the enemy
made use of the car for a few
months later, when the Twenty-
Seventh and the Thirty-Second div
isions of the American, army push
ed forward, an American found the
Huick in a Btorage park, shattered
and wrecked. They hauled it
back, crippled at it was, to a point
of safety.
There is considerable evidence
of service under fire, the armor in
front of the driving compartment
and the body and sides hearing
the marks of shrapnel and machine
gun bullets. ,
The original body was similar to
those used on the early French am
bulances. It has been remodeled
and repaired several times because
of damage. Its pre.-eut peaked roof,
no doubt, Is a creation of the en
emy, as the French car of thi3
type had a curved roof as Indicated
by a narrow strip which still re
mains over the driver's seat.
The bodv alone weighed1 mo're
than the chassis was originally de
signed to carry. And yet, it had
accomodations for tw

with room for two or three addi
