But watch out...the revisionist crowd here on FR are, for the most part, NOT Americans....and they have no respect at all for AMERICANs, especially our Soldiers who served or died in WWI.

Whether they're Americans or not, they have more fun playing around with history to suit their own purposes than they do reporting the facts.

I know because I have fight after fight with them and they even insulted my Grandfather's service in the GREAT WAR by saying he was fighting for something he did not understand...he was a high ranking aide to General Pershing, for crying out loud!!

That's just incredible. I'm not sure why people always try to imagine our forefathers as slavish morons. People then were just as intelligent as they are now, and you should be proud of your grandfather.

Thank you very much.

Granddad was proud of his country and "his soldiers" as he called them, until the day he died.

Our family has served in every war this land was involved in...including serving with Washington in the French and Indian War in the militia.

Heck, my first ancestors in the New World arrived in the mid-17th century.

Not many or none of these revisionists can make that claim.
