Shay looks at the crucial yet unheralded role played by support
troops in World War I, in particular those in the medical branch.
The unarmed men of the 103rd Field Hospital Company, 26th (Yankee)
Division spent a year and a half in France performing their duty
bravely under arduous conditions. The experiences of the men of the
103rd Field Hospital were undoubtedly shared by any member of a
frontline field hospital. Based on nearly four years of research,
including original archival material, he fills an important gap in
the military history of World War I.
"A Grateful Heart" is a detailed account of the 103rd Field
Hospital Company, 26th (Yankee) Division in World War I. All
aspects of the company are examined. The book is more than a
chronological narrative and it places the unit in the context of
the larger role of the 26th Division. It features original maps and
passenger lists showing the members of the unit who sailed to
France in 1917 and who returned in 1919.
