Report From the North

WE are on a construction project outside the continental limits of the United States. For security reasons the location is a military secret at present. On July 1, 1951, five men met in the mess hall and started an AA group. All of us were members at home and realized the need of continuing our AA affiliations. We come from all sections of the United States-- --New York, California, and the middle west--with periods of sobriety ranging from six months to six years. Since the first gathering about 15 more AAs have been contacted and the group is progressing in true AA tradition. It is refreshing to note that these men in a rough construction camp in a very rugged country realize the need for outside help in their daily life.
