New England’s wounded veterans arrive aboard the Tenadores and Kroonland, recounting battles from Chateau Thierry to the Argonne. Officers and enlisted men, including 26th and 101st divisions, greet rushing crowds in New York as rain dampens but does not dim the homecoming. Names from Boston, Roxbury, Springfield, Charlestown, Providence, and other towns mingle with reports of shell shock, trench feet, and missing limbs, while savored by cheering crowds and Red Cross bands.
