The Lost Battalion

Edición de la obra The Lost Battalion

For a generation the Lost Battalion exemplified the best of America{u2019}s involvement in World War I. Until World War II pushed the Lost Battalion out of the national memory with its own scenes of horror and heroism, mention of the unit{u2019}s name summoned up what America admired in its soldiers: unpretentious courage, dogged resistance, and good cheer and adaptation under adversity.
