Not many Americans went to war in 1914.

There's that, and why would a kid in the middle of nowhere on an island in Washington state bother to chain his bike to a tree? Who's going to steal it?

It’s Snopes but it’s an interesting story.

My grandfather, an American, joined the Royal Army Medical Corps in 1915. He did three years on the Somme. We have a commendation for his hospital signed by King George V.
