From The Indianapolis Star, Monday, May 22, 1916: Indianapolis Dr. Paul F. Martin, 2848 N. Illinois St, will leave within the next two weeks for Austria where he will be in charge of an independent American hospital corps caring for wounded soldiers. The hospital corps is one of two being sent to the war zone this month by the American Physicians’ Expeditionary Society. Since the war began, the expeditionary society has financed and sent three independent American hospital units to the war zones of the Central Powers. “The expedition is strictly neutral, and was organized for humanitarian motives,” said Dr. Martin. A large 1,000 bed hospital in Budapest will probably be turned over to Dr. Martin and his team of physicians and nurses. Dr. Martin will be in the war zone for at least six months.
