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.
