Barnett, the commandant of the Marine Corps, gave out today a list of casualties sustained by the Marine Corps in France from the time the first brigade went over with the Pershing expedition to date. The list covers the whole period of the marines' fighting in France from the beginning, and shows that this branch of the service, which is part of the naval service, but whose men in France are serving under General Pershing, has been doing its full share of the fighting. The casualty list given out today contains a total of 277 names. It shows that seven officers and 235 men were wounded in action, also that thirty-five enlisted men have been killed. Of these twenty-two were killed outright in action, two were accidentally killed and eleven died of wounds received in action. In making the announcement, General Barnett said that no marines were reported missing, which means that no marines have been captured by the Germans. One company in particular has had losses of over 50 per cent. Its identity is not disclosed. This company, however, lost twenty-one men killed and 140 men wounded. The full strength of a company is 250 men.
