| 520 | _a"Golden Lads" by Arthur Gleason and Helen Hayes Gleason is a firsthand account of World War I written in the early 20th century. This poignant narrative reflects on the experiences of American ambulance workers in the war zone, particularly focusing on the profound sacrifices of young soldiers, such as the French Fusiliers Marins. The book captures the stark realities of war, emphasizing both the brutality faced by combatants and the remarkable resilience and camaraderie found among them. The opening of "Golden Lads" sets a somber tone as the authors recount their time volunteering in the devastated areas of Belgium. They describe their encounters with the young French sailors, affectionately referred to as "Les demoiselles au pompon rouge," who maintain a brave and carefree spirit despite the horrors surrounding them. Gleason shares vivid depictions of the wreckage and suffering in towns like Melle and Dixmude, exploring themes of sacrifice, honor, and the emotional toll of war on both soldiers and civilians. The narrative serves as a heartfelt tribute to those who fought valiantly, inviting readers to reflect on the cost of valor and the indomitable human spirit amidst adversity.
