Item 1: Full article
Item 2: Detail of an excerpt of a letter from Lieutenant T. E. Dunne, 21st Field Artillery, A. E. F. The letter follows in part: "After traveling for about thirty-five days, and having covered about eight thousand miles, we have finally reached a semi-permanent location. I was notified today that I am to be the telephone and wireless officer for the first battalion of the regiment. All I have to do is see that communications are maintained under any kind of fire. Of course, I don't do the actual work myself, but I am responsible, and that means personal inspection.
"I haven't met but two people I knew before I joined the Army, since I left Chicago last December. Both of them were Loyola Law School boys--Fred Reeve and James Conway. They were still at Camp McArthur when I left."

An article in the Loyola News covers precautions taken against the Spanish influenza.
"Wise Precautions Ward Off Scourge"
"The Students' Army Training Corps of Loyola University was mobilized on October 1, 1918. Just at this time one of the most serious menaces to human life, a miniature plague, 'the Spanish influenza' began its murderous course. The men had assembled from all sections of the city and even from nearby towns. The possibility that some of them might be carrying the 'Flu' germ was indeed very great. In this critical stage the wisdom of our physician and officers soon forged to the front. Knowing the most vital symptoms of the disease, they carefully planned our work so that, while we covered our allotted ground, we resorted to vigorous means to offset that terrible plague. The result, or reward, of this preparation was that not one single case of influenza made its appearance. The siege of influenza brought gloom into the hearts of the men. While they were willing to take steps toward 'Flu' prevention, nevertheless being in quarantine and losing passes over Sunday, October 20, was rather bitter medicine."
