A big American troopship arriving in Europe. Soldiers crowd the rail and watch the preparations to tie up at the dock. The Red Cross man is one of the first to board the incoming transport and one of the last to leave the outgoing ship bound for France. On the docks, the soldier, whether incoming or outgoing, finds a warm welcome at the Red Cross canteen, where sandwiches and hot drinks are served by American women
