The Champagne-Argonne Offensives: Blanc Mont, Marines and African-Americans

Beschreibung

Pershing's aim had always been to fight the Germans with an independent American Army (the AEF, the American Expeditionary Forces) instead of dividing his divisions between the allies. When the Germans launched the first attack of their Spring Offensives on 21 March 1918, he was still far away from the creation of this independent army.
