Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of the Army When Christmas broke over the fort in the far Northwest where Lieutenant Robert Douglas, U.S.A., was was blowing gently stationed, the wind from the southeast. There had been a light snowfall during the night, and as the sun arose there was a faint suggestion of warmth in the beams that glistened across the crystalline flakes. It seemed as though the cold had loosened its grip for a while.
