Montana Heroes in Five Months of Philippine War
Granose L. Kinnen recounts how Montana volunteers joined 125000 to fight in the Philippines. The First Montana regiment, led by Majors Drennan and Wallace, fought at La Loma, Caloocan, Malabon, and Malolos, suffering heavy casualties and earning praise from MacArthur. The unit faced brutal trench warfare, a pivotal action at Calumpit, and a dramatic bridge crossing at the Rio Grande with Kansas troops, marking the last major fights.
