What Tales They Could Tell. These old American Red Cross ambulances reached Serbia during the war, and were used in transporting wounded Serbian soldiers until they fell apart. Serbia was at war for seven years and during that time the roads were never repaired. It was terrific strain on motor cars. There are about twenty of these broken down ambulances piled together in a military area at Belgrade, and they really deserve better treatment, because they are real veterans of the great war. There has been a suggestion of giving them a place of honor in the military museum at Belgrade
