own joyous group. At
the Coliseum were more relatives and friends, who made the next hour
pass like a fraction of a minute.
With steel helmets, gas masks and gun-belts, the regiment paraded
between cheering crowds, north on Michigan boulevard, south on State,
north on Clark and south on La Salle, and everywhere in the Loop a
throng packed the streets waiting for the boys to march by. Tired and
wet, but very happy, they dined at the Congress hotel, and then sped on
to Camp Grant late in the afternoon.
Next day they entered the discharge mill, and Saturday noon, May 10,
1919, Battery E was a chapter of history, an extinct military
organization, but still a living bond of memory among the men of its
roster and among their relatives and friends who had worked so
steadfastly for them when Battery E was in France.
