About This Book
The narrative records the formation, training, overseas voyage, and operations of an American field artillery battery, tracing induction, camp life, and unit organization. It describes daily routines, drills, athletic and leisure activities, logistical tasks with horses and mules, and specialized instruction such as camouflage training. Travel chapters cover convoy crossings, encounters at allied rest camps, and movement into French billets, while frontline sections recount mud, sickness, and casualty care. Personal reminiscences and group photographs accompany rosters, addresses, and administrative notes, and reflections on comradeship, funerals, and postwar demobilization close the account.
