DIRECTOR GRAY OF RED CROSS GOES 10 GAMP BEALE Camp White Culminating 14 months of service as director of the Red Cross Field Office here, Frank B. Gray left Tuesday for his new assignment at Camp Beale, Calif., where he will serve in the same capacity. He Is being succeeded by Leon ard Bushell, coming here from Camp Haan, Calif. Mr. Gray came to this post April 29, 1943. During that time his office has helped solve the problems of 17,000 GI Joes and Janes. Around Camp White, Frank Gray developed a reputation for being a very human sort of guy who could and would do any thing for a soldier. Beyond all this, Gray was the guiding force behind several other Red Cross activities around the post. Through his efforts the Red Cross trained instructors for first aid and combat swimming, qualifying 162 men as Red Cross swimming instructors, who in turn taught thousands of mem bers of the 91st Division. The fruit of this will reach their fullest significance as the boys go into combat. Aided Overseas Outfits For weeks his office engaged witnesses for wills and- notaries for powers of attorneys for out fits pulling out of camp for eventual overseas duty. Troop train recreation chests', originat ed right here at Camp White by the Red Cross, went with the boys and broke the monotony of otherwise tiresome cross-country trips. He was instrumental in fur' nishing 158 day rooms through out the post, including the WAC recreation room. ' During his period of duty here, Gray has been responsible not only for the supervision of Red' Cross activities at Camp White, but of all chapters in Jackson, Josephine, Curry, Lake and Klamath counties in Oregon, and Del Norte, Siskiyou and Mo doc counties in California At one time this involved the wel fare of 65,000 men and women in the service. 65 GRANDCHILDREN Hastings, Neb.
