Four men beside an ambulance tending to a "wounded" soldier on a stretcher. On back: "In action in the field at Camp Grant, Illinois, these new soldiers are getting practical experience in litter, or stretcher bearing, and are learning how to administer first aid to wounded. The waiting ambulance will carry the patient to a field hospital, where he will get any further medical attention needed. Uniform for field work is blue denim, or fatigue uniform, as it is called. Camp Grant is one of the two medical department training centers in the United States."
