| | 1ST CL. PVT. ALBERT GARDNER
Serial No. 2,985,591
908 Springle St., Detroit, Mich.
Gardner was a member of the 310th Ammunition Train before joining our Battery in September 1918. The Captain immediately picked him as a member of the B. C. Detail to act in the capacity of wireman and telephone operator. During the activities at the front he was telephone operator and runner.
Personally, he was well liked, being very unassuming, quiet and wont to “kid’’ Privates Fleischer and Albert Maier. A good soldier, exact in execution of orders. In the Tautecourt position he was one of the fifty-seven men exposed to the shell fire and hardships of the last position.
While at Pont-a-Mousson Gardner was one of the telephone operators in the orderly room.
