From a Burtonsville Boy
Private Milo Auchampaugh of Company K, 312th infantry, started the New Year right by writing to Charles W. Wells of Burtonsville. At that time Private Auchampaugh was stationed at a place called Alisce St. Rein, about 234 miles from Bordeaux. The men were living in billets, about 30 in a room. The Burtonsville boy is with the 75th division and left Camp Dix May 19, landing June 5 in Gravesend, England, about 80 miles from London. There were 2,800 soldiers on board the ship on which he crossed. They had some shaking up by a submarine, which had no damage. June 12 the men were sent to Calais and trained in northern France until August 5, when they went up on the Arras front, but did no fighting, as they were way back in reserve.
After that they were sent back to a place called Bonneville, where they stayed until September 10, when they started for the big drive on the St. Mihiel front. They were in reserve until September 16, when they held the front line in a quiet sector. After doing their stunt there they went up to the Argonne forest, and on the morning of October 23, at 5 bells, they went over the top at a place called Grand Pre and for four days has some hot time, and on November 2 started on the long chase, giving the Boche all he wanted, which lasted until the say they were relieved. Private Auchampaugh came out of the scrimmage safe and sound, without a scratch, but there were only 48 left out of a company of 185.
