    re: howard backs bush for nobel peace pr Yanks only sent 700,000 troops and a battleship squadron. They may have tipped the tide, but hardly won the war. They only had one campaign where they operated independently.

    A key German observation post on Hill 305 in Montfaucon d'Argonne was captured on September 27 1918. Approximately 18,000 Americans fell during this offensive. This was the first offensive conducted by the United States as an independent army. General Pershing's general thrust was the Rhine River, which he expected to breach early in 1919.

    Poor Pershing. While he was heading for the Rhine the WAR ENDED. Teddy Roosevelt's son had to join the Royal Air Force to get any action (he was killed).

    Pull that apart laughing hyena.
