Victory Parade of the A F Corps d Elite in Paris
Elmo Scott Watson chronicles the 1919 A E F Corps d Elite parade in Paris on Bastille Day. The piece recalls the 1865 Grand Review in Washington and details the composite regiment’s journey from Coblenz to Paris, London, and back to the United States, ending with demobilization. The piece contrasts American memory of the 1865 event with the smaller 1919 spectacle and notes Pershing’s oversight and national pride.
