Badin Welcomes Pvt. Hill Home, March 1, 1919

Wounded and Gassed, Pvt. Hill Returns

Private Elmore Hill, Company D, 105th Engineers, A.E.F.

Private Elmore Hill, who also might be called one of our pioneers, in that he had lived in Badin since 1913, has come back home after being honorably discharged. He was in active service for seven months in France and Belgium, and he bears two wound stripes on his arm, having been wounded and gassed during the fight on the St. Quentin front.

We are glad to have him back again, and are proud that he represented Badin so well on the battle line against the Hun.
