Yank Sleeps In Tub To Banish Paralysis

Lieut Milton B Mackall of the Maryland national guard lived in a bath tub at the Government Hospital Fort McHenry for over two months and still sleeps in one at night as he marks the first anniversary of his wounding. Paralyzed a year ago with a severed spinal cord and two back wounds from a German shell, his strength is returning and he can sit up though his lower legs remain inert. Doctors doubted a cure, but Major Herring in the April move to Fort McHenry devised a tub bath method to wash sores with body temperature water aiding recovery.
