8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports
To the Editor of the Service News:
The American Field Service is very grateful for your courtesy in calling the attention of your readers to our need for volunteer ambulance drivers. However, we would like to point out an error in your article appearing in the Harvard SERVICE NEWS for March 17, that "the American Field Service takes no responsibility for the health of its members."
The facts are as follows: Owing to the charitable nature of our organization, it is not possible for us to provide compensation for permanent injuries. However, full hospitalization is provided free of charge to any volunteer who is injured or becomes sick while on active duty with the A.F.S., and the patient will receive the best possible medical care until he is well enough to be repatriated or to return to active duty. S. Prescott Fay, Chairman for-New England, American Field Service.
