He was an active member of the old Third Oregon, Ka tlonal guard and Coast artillery, and shortly before the war broke out when danger 6f sabotage loomed, he was placed In command of the soldiers wno. guarded the railroad bridges in fori land. At the beginning of the war he was bent to Fort Stevens and remained there until he went overseas with the 65th artillery. After arriving in France he was assigned to special duty for a snort time, and on August 1. 1918. went to the front with the 28th division. As they had lost nearly all their men Stretcher was transferred from the artillery to the Infantry. His first battle was at cna- teau Thierry, after vhicb he was in the Alsne-Mame and Oise-Alsne offensives, and In the Arfeonne forest defensive. Stretcher's division was in the- front ranks advancing on Mets when the arm 1st les was signed. In February. 1919.
