"The Camp Fire Girls Behind the Lines" by Margaret Vandercook is a narrative set against the backdrop of World War I, following a group of Camp Fire girls as they travel down the California coast. The story begins with the girls visiting the old Spanish missions, a journey that serves as a prelude to their summer camp experience. The protagonist, Peggy Webster, along with her friends, is deeply influenced by the romantic and historical atmosphere of the missions. As they settle into their camp near the Pacific Ocean, the girls are inspired to contribute to the war effort by adopting a lifestyle of conservation and service, embodying the principles of the "Camp Fire Minute Girls." The narrative explores the dynamics within the group, particularly focusing on the contrasting personalities of the girls. Gerry Williams, a new member of the group, is portrayed as a character with a mysterious past and a pragmatic outlook on life. Her friendship with Sally Ashton highlights their shared desire for adventure and their differing views on romance and future aspirations. Meanwhile, the presence of Dan and Billy Webster introduces a subplot of sibling rivalry and differing ideologies about the war, with Dan eager to serve and Billy advocating for peace. As the girls navigate their summer, they encounter various challenges and opportunities for growth. The story emphasizes themes of friendship, responsibility, and the impact of the war on personal lives. Through their experiences, the girls learn valuable lessons about self-reliance, community service, and the importance of supporting each other in times of uncertainty.
