Teil vonGerhard Lohrenz fonds
This is a photo of voluntary Mennonite Red Cross workers during the Russo-Japanese war. Somewhat more than fifty of our men had volunteered. Their congregations supported them. As far as I know, not one of our young men entered combat units. But the Red Cross service, the service of compassion, was popular among our people. Although not easy, the service nevertheless gave the men a good deal of satisfaction. [HR 235]
