Recommended: World War I Commemorative Brochures from the U.S. Army Center for Military History


The Army has released four volumes in their new series of WWI brochures that will eventually cover the entire war.  Here's one of the covers. The works are very informative and well illustrated, using Signal Corps photos and official U.S. Army artwork from the war. They  can be downloaded as PDF documents from the address below.  Currently available are the works covering up through Cantigny and operations around Château-Thierry.

  3. A wealth of information and wonderfully clear photographs. Maybe the Center for Military History has the 16mm movies taken at Base Hospital #9 in Chateauroux where my father was a surgeon.

  4. Very clear photos and lots of detail. It will take me awhile to digest all of this information, but I'm looking forward to learning more of what my great-grandfather did while a soldier in France. Thank you!
