During World War I, the Second Division, American Expeditionary
Force, saw more action and captured more ground and enemy
combatants than any other division in that war, including the
vaunted First Division. The 4th Marine Brigade, especially, earned
a reputation as a steadfast unit of superb fighting men. This
riveting volume follows those Marines through their service in
France in 1917 and 1918, during the post-war occupation of Germany,
and their arrival in New York City in August, 1919. Seven
battalion-oriented chapters, along with one dedicated to the entire
4th Marine Brigade, recount the Brigade's role in some of the most
intense battles of the war, including at Belleau Wood, Soissons,
St. Mihiel, Blanc Mont, and the Meuse River. Descriptions of the
Armistice, welcome home parades, and the brigade's disbandment at
Quantico in August 1919 complete this comprehensive chronicle of
one of the American military's most distinguished units.
