Interesting War History on a Fifty Dollar Bill Found
A Gulf Refining driver brought a fifty dollar bill to the Athens Herald bearing wartime notes from October 1918. Corporal Cecil Dowds and four machine gunners recorded hours of action on the Lorraine front, concluding with the war’s end on November 11 1918. The bill lacks unit details but preserves vivid battlefield memories and moralizing quotes.
