Description: Softcover. First edition. 16mo. Stapled decorated yellow wrappers. Paper remnants on rear wrap (removed from an album), smudging on the wrappers, tears at the extremities, a good only copy. The unit was formed in Florida at Camp Joseph E. Johnston, after a month's training and a week's sojourn in Virginia they were bound for France, given trucks, and sent off almost at once hauling ammunition to the front line at St. Mihiel, and after that offensive succeeded, performed the same service at the Argonne front, and later hauled bridge materials for the Meuse River crossing. A rare unit history written by a pair of barely literate sergeants, but which is nevertheless made compelling tales of bombardments, attacks from the air, burning trucks, and the like. Includes a complete roster of the small unit. Mediocre condition, but possibly the only extant copy. *OCLC* locates no copies.
