Over the river and up the hill. The last stage in transporting American Red Cross supplies in transporting American Red Cross supplies in Albania. Albanians and Italians dragging a big American Red Cross truck across the Ishmi river toward the road to Tirana. Many rivers must be crossed in this fashion in the trip from Scutari in Northern Albania to the American Red Cross "Capital" at Tirana. Those who have not visited Albania have little idea of the tremendous difficulties overcome by American Red Cross doctors, nurses and doughboys who are working to get food, clothing and medicines of the needy Albanians
