Let no one imagine that in the thousands of operations performed at the front surgeons [152] THE FIRST CANADIANS IN FRANCE become careless! Every case is a special one; every "Tommy" the private patient of the Em- pire. The surgeon's responsibility is as great — and he feels it, too — in that far-away land, as it is at home.
