He submitted his idea to the War Department and a day or two ago he recieved a letter from Adjutant General of the army in which thanked him kindly, and told him his idea had been submitted to the proper authorities. We are not at liberty to give any publicity to Fred's idea, but it would be wonderful if the idea of a citizen of Gaffney would revolutionize war operations on the battle line File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/sc/cherokee/newspapers/shortnew37nnw.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.net/scfiles/ File size: 1.2 Kb
