Neuilly (Seine) France.
Mrs. James Borden Harriman, and her staff, at the garage of the American Red Cross Women Motor Corps, 32 Rue Pierret, Neuilly (Seine) France.
These are the noble women who did work which would tire any man,
they managed, repaired and drove any kind of an automobile through the streets of Paris day and night during the war.
In the inky nights of Paris, they plowed through the streets at all hours, never stopping.
They were highly praised for their courage by all who had to do with them

Gasoline room at the garage of the American Red Cross Women Motor Corps, at 32 Rue Pierret, Neuilly.
This part of the service had about 45 competent women who were exceptionally hard workers, and who were a great credit to the organization.
They not only drove about Paris in the day time, but during the dark period of the war, drove their camions,
ambulances and passenger cars about the streets, in the utter darkness, at night
