Dr. Robert Battey Greenough '92 will speak in the Living Room of the Union on "The Work of the Ambulance Department in France" this evening at 8 o'clock. The lecture will be illustrated by lantern slides. As executive officer and surgeon, Dr. Greenough served with the University Unit in France from April 1 to July 1 of this year, and brings home vivid stories of the war. Dr. Greenough's pictures illustrate the work of the ambulance corps and the surgical department, and he will describe the stages through which the wounded soldiers go, from the scene of the battle to the "line" stations and then back to the big clearing hospitals, far behind the lines.
The Harvard Unit in action will be illustrated, as will also the ambulances which the University donated last year.
Dr. Greenough has written several articles on his work, and this evening will afford an unusual opportunity for members of the Union to hear a vivid account of the work behind the French lines.
