Summary:
for the two days, we had the google doc of this week I mainly learned about the doctors and nurses in the hospitals treating the soldiers. at first, they believed it was only a small cold, and then all of a sudden over 100,000 men, women, and children were dead and the only thing the doctors could do was give out whiskey and aspirin. it took more deaths for the president to call off the draft due to it.
