Red Cross Girls Feed Our Boys on the Front

In coastal France a Red Cross cantine near the line of communications serves thousands of American soldiers during the wheeling movement from port to destination. Women workers, aided by sergeants, distribute coffee, sandwiches, and tea while trains arrive and depart. The scene shows resourceful cantine staff braving crowds, sharing food, and guiding troops, with soldiers waving thanks as they pass.
