Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Story of the 139th Field Artillery, American Expeditionary Forces In January, 1917, Governor Goodrich appointed Colonel Harry B. Smith of Indianapolis to be Adjutant General of the State of Indiana. Perhaps no officer ever came to this office better equipped temperamentally, professionally and by experience to cope with the important work and problems that this office had to handle and solve in the nation´s participation in the war which then appeared inevitable. For seventeen years I had served under the command of Colonel Smith in the 2d Infantry, I. N. G., including that regiment´s service in the Spanish American war, and had every opportunity to become acquainted with his capacity and excellent ability. It has been my endeavor in the administration of this regiment to carry out the lessons learned from such able officers as my former regimental commanders, the late Colonel James R. Ross, Colonels Harry B. Smith and Henri T. Conde and General Will J. McKee, all to whom I shall always owe a great debt. I count it as one of the greatest opportunities of my life to have been able to serve as a young man under these sterling soldiers.
