Lieutenant Maurice Cornelius Wentz served as an x-ray specialist during World War I. These documents help tell the story of his service. At the time, he and other radiologists would have been known as a “roentgenologists” after x-ray discoverer Wilhelm Röntgen. In July 1918, Wentz departed for France, where he served with Mobile Hospital No. 2. Mobile hospitals were often tents and trucks, able to pack up and quickly move to assist more permanent hospitals, especially near the front lines. As a new technology, x-rays could do some impressive things, such as locating a break in a bone or the site of a bullet in the body. While in France, Wentz served near two major conflicts, the Meuse-Argonne and St. Mihiel. He returned to the U.S. in February 1919, three months after the end of the war. In our collections are Wentz’s wartime documents, including identification cards, a discharge certificate, and a certificate of appreciation from the Mayor and City Council of Baltimore. This morning, we’re sharing #WorldWar1 objects and stories selected by Mallory of our Division of Medicine and Science. Follow the hashtag #WW1Stories today for more fascinating stories from the Great War. Museums and archives around the world are sharing. ?????? #CountdownToVeteransDay #VeteransDay #musesocial #ITweetMuseums #AmericanHistory #HistMed #MedHist #xray #MedicalHistory #MilitaryMedicine #MilitaryHistory #WW1 #TheGreatWar #NRTW17 #nationalradiologictechnologyweek
