AFS in World War I
AFS began its operations in an auxiliary
military hospital,
located in the high
school building of Lycée Pasteur in
Neuilly-sur-Seine, Paris. This volunteer-
run, civilian-financed American
Ambulance,
an extension of the nearby American Hospital of Paris, opened
its
doors in September of 1914.
