It has been a more than ninety years since the Doughboys of the American Expeditionary force (AEF) swept across France. Much of what they accomplished has been forgotten. Much of their contribution to American identity has been obscured by later contributions seen to be as more important. Some of those forgotten Doughboys were Texans and former students of Southwest Texas State Normal School who served with the AEF and helped change the trajectory of history in the late summer and early fall of 1918.
