General Pershing's View of the A E F in 1918 Campaign
Pershing recalls Allied high command talks at Foch HQ on July 24 1918. He notes Allied initiative after stopping the German offensive, American divisions entering the line, and plans for coordinated offensives, rail access, and expansion of the American army in France. He describes logistics tours from Tours to Brest, praise for medical staff and Women's Auxiliary Army Corps, and a port advance record at Cherbourg.
