    "Probably no other woman war worker is entitled to wear more medals than Mrs. Hilda Wynne of the British Red Cross. She came to this country recently to represent the Duke d'Aosta's committee to provide relief for wounded Italian soldiers. Mrs. Wynne saw service on the British, French, Belgian and Russian fronts. She has been decorated with the order of St. John of Jerusalem, the Order of Leopold, the Croix de Guerre, the Mena[?] Star, and Silver and Gold Medal of the Order of St. George (Russian), the Italian War Cross and the Red Cross Order of Merit." --"Most Be-Medalled Woman in the World, Schenectady Gazette (22 February 1919): p. 1. Hilda Wynne was an Englishwoman, a military officer's widow who inherited money and spent it to drive an ambulance in wartime Europe, and to support relief efforts. books.google.com/books?id=1Ao9AAAAYAAJ&lpg=RA6-PA27&a... books.google.com/books?id=oZEVAAAAYAAJ&lpg=PA105&... query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F60B11FC395E11738... After the war, she kept raising funds for the benefit of disabled veterans of the war. She died 28 January 1923, at the Hotel Meurice in Paris. (New York Times obituary published 1 February 1923.)

    6,675! That's the size of a reinforced regiment/brigade in today's military formations.
