_ SERVICES OF RED CROSS 

Provides Home Atmosphere for Boys 
Red Cross field directors and other 
personnel are assigned to United 
States task forces and other units 
of the armed forces in all foreign 
zones: of operation. These repre- 
sentatives are prepared at all times 
to assist the servicemen in such per- 

sonal problems as are not related to 
their military life. 
In addition to this comprehensive 
program which is carried on among 
ablebodied and hospitalized men, the 
Red Cross has inaugurated a project 
for the provision of clubs, rest homes 
and recreation centers in leave areas 
abroad. These clubs are in opera- 
tion in areas where American forces 
are stationed, including Iceland, the 
British Isles, North Africa, the Mid- 
dle East, India, China, Australia and 
New Caledonia. 
The much-publicized Washington 
Club in London is typical of these 
Red Cross servicemen’s establish- 
ments. In London alone, in addi- 
tion to the Washington Club, a num- 
ber of others have been opened, 
and they are also to be found in 
Glasgow, Edinboro, Belfast, London- 
derry, and many other cities in the 
British Isles. 
-These clubs are a bit of homeland 
transplanted to foriegn soil, and ev- 
ery effort is made to provide the 
soldier and sailor with a homey and 
informal atmosphere. In addition 
to game rooms, libraries, writing 
rooms and lounges, these clubs fur- 
nish servicemen on leave with over- 
night accommodations in comfort- 
able beds, and canteen and cafeteria 
service where real American food 
is available. In accordance with a
