Final Report of Gen. 1919: John J. Pershing, Commander-in-Chief American Expeditionary Forces (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Final Report of Gen. 1919: John J. Pershing, Commander-in-Chief American Expeditionary Forces
The British were crowding the Channel ports and the French were exploiting the manufacturing center of Paris, so that the railroads of northern France were already much overtaxed. Even though the Channel ports might be used to a limited extent for shipments through England, the railroads leading eastward would have to cross British and French zones of operation, thus making the introduction of a line of communications based on ports and railways in that re gion quite impracticable. If the American Army was to have an independent and flexible system it could not use the lines behind the british-belgium front nor those in rear of the French front covering Paris.
