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.

A Marine Speaks of Battling "The Horrible Huns" in 1918
From the December 5, 2018, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1918, 100 Years Ago.
"Joe Neuman, a wounded Marine, was at Genoa last evening, where he gave a couple of addresses, telling of his experiences in the firing line against the horrible Huns. Genoa people had planned a regular demonstration for the DeKalb soldier, but rainy weather put a halt to the plans.
"Neuman is scheduled to speak at Sycamore Friday evening and at Shabbona Saturday evening of this week, and it is probable that he will be heard by many people in both places."
