Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Press Review, 1917-1918: Issued by the Second Section, General Staff, General Headquarters American Expeditionary Forces; No. 1-226 It is claimed that by the end of 1917 General Pershing will have command altogether over 000 men, but that he can use only the lesser part for actual fighting. In addition to the men of the standing army which the Union possessed, the 430, 000 of the National Guard and of the new National Army will have been added, but the National Guard and National Army are composed Of recruits who were mustered in September and October, whose training, no matter how energetically it is pushed, will demand at least six months - which is not saying that they will reach a state of preparation for battle equal to that of the regular European armies, - even bright and early as the instruction Of Negro Officers has begun. At the time of their declaration of war the Americans had about 200 aviators, 20 of whom were military aviators. In spite of the numbers announced as receiving wholesale training over there, it is not expected that a strong Aviation Corps can be ready before spring. The necessary preparations for their reception will be made in Germany. In June General Pershing landed with his staff in France. With him came the first transports, bringing from twenty to forty thousand men for the European theatre of war. But a large part of these troops con sisted of railroad regiments. Parts of the American division were placed on a quiet sector of the front. Here they felt no great need of pushing themselves forward. The second muster Of recruits is to follow only in the course of winter. That the United States is organizing for herself a giant army is not to be doubted. But whether it is intended for Europe is quite another question. The Union had understood that she needed greater preparation if she was to take over the leading power long sought in the Pacific. The European war was the best excuse. Wilson will certainly content himself with giving the Entente moral backing for 1918 by the announcement of a giant shipment of troops. But even should he be able to fulfill his words, it would still be absolutely impossible that this should mean the swinging Of the decision next year in favor of France and England. Quite apart from the Obstacles which our U-boats can put in' the way of the transportation of large masses of men and material, and supposing Pershing had a half a million ships tonnage at the disposal of his Expeditionary Force, the spanning of the ocean with an army of millions appears impracticable.

Download or read book The Other End of the Spear written by John J. Mcgrath and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-09-16 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at several troop categories based on primary function and analyzes the ratio between these categories to develop a general historical ratio. This ratio is called the Tooth-to-Tail Ratio. McGrath's study finds that this ratio, among types of deployed US forces, has steadily declined since World War II, just as the nature of warfare itself has changed. At the same time, the percentage of deployed forces devoted to logistics functions and to base and life support functions have increased, especially with the advent of the large-scale of use of civilian contractors. This work provides a unique analysis of the size and composition of military forces as found in historical patterns. Extensively illustrated with charts, diagrams, and tables.

Download or read book The United States in World War I written by James T. Controvich and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2023-05-08 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the centennial of the First World War rapidly approaching, historian and bibliographer James T. Controvich offers in The United States in World War I: A Bibliographic Guide the most comprehensive, up-to-date reference bibliography yet published. Organized by subject, this bibliography includes the full range of sources: vintage publications of the time, books, pamphlets, periodical titles, theses, dissertations, and archival sources held by federal and state organizations, as well as those in public and private hands, including historical societies and museums. As Controvich’s bibliographic accounting makes clear, there were many facets of World War I that remain virtually unknown to this day. Throughout, Controvich’s bibliography tracks the primary sources that tell each of these stories—and many others besides—during this tense period in American history. Each entry lists the author, title, place of publication, publisher, date of publication, and page count as well as descriptive information concerning illustrations, plates, ports, maps, diagrams, and plans. The armed forces section carries additional information on rosters, awards, citations, and killed and wounded in action lists. The United States in World War I: A Bibliographic Guide is an ideal research tool for students and scholars of World War I and American history.
Download or read book Pershing s Lieutenants written by and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-11-26 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World War I had a profound impact on the United States of America, which was forced to 'grow' an army almost overnight. The day the United States declared war on Germany, the US Army was only the 17th largest in the world, ranking behind Portugal – the Regular Army had only 128,00 troops, backed up by the National Guard with some 182,000 troops. By the end of the war it had grown to 3,700,000, with slightly more than half that number in Europe. Until the United States did so, no country in all history had tried to deploy a 2-million-man force 3,000 miles from its own borders, a force led by American Expeditionary Forces Commander-in-Chief General John J. Pershing. This was America's first truly modern war and rising from its ranks was a new generation of leaders who would control the fate of the United States armed forces during the interwar period and into World War II. This book reveals the history of the key leaders working for and with John J. Pershing during this tumultuous period, including George S. Patton (tank commander and future commander of the US Third Army during World War II); Douglas MacArthur (42nd Division commander and future General of the Army) and Harry S. Truman (artillery battery commander and future President of the United States). Edited by Major General David T. Zabecki (US Army, Retired) and Colonel Douglas V. Mastriano (US Army, Retired), this fascinating title comprises chapters on individual leaders from subject experts across the US, including faculty members of the US Army War College.
