Pershing on Supreme Allied Command at Doullens and Foch
General Pershing recounts meetings with Secretary Baker and Lloyd George at Chaumont and Beauvais. He supports a unified Allied command under General Foch, arguing unity of action requires a supreme commander and that the American army must be included in any such framework. The resolution empowers Foch to coordinate Allied operations with each army retaining tactical control.
