WWI and the AEF

[RJ]

Pete,

Thank you for the forum direction.

The Brits lost most of the WWI generation of men in the trenches of France.

France and Germany didn't fair that well either.

The US came to the war late, but I do believe we helped end it quickly. My father fought in the AEF and was wounded at Chateau Thierry.

I believe Pershing was under orders not to let the America Troops be parceled out.

If I remember my history the Brits lost close to 50,000 men in Flanders in a single battle.I believe it was spelled Paschendale'
