This grew out of my Down Da Road I Go Blog which now has become primarily what I'm doing and music. I was getting so much history in it, I spun this one off and now have World War II and War of 1812 blogs which came off this one. The Blog List below right has all the way too many blogs that I write.

WW I October 2-7, 1918, "Lost Battalion"
All of these WW I chronologies are from the April 2017 VFW Magazine.
LOST BATTALION
600 Doughboys from the 308th and 307th Infantry Regiments and a platoon of the 306th Machine Gun Battalion of the 77th Infantry Division are decimated at Charlesvaux in the Argonne Forest.
Only 200 remained fit for duty.
