Location Of the s12th Machine Gun
Battalion OF the 18th Division from
the time Of its departure from this
country to the signing Of the armis-
tice is revealed in letters from Sergt.
|C. c. Schroth of this city to his wife.
The battalion, which trained at Camp
Meade, is made up almost entirely OF
Washington men.
The fact that the 10th Division,
commanded by Maj. Gen. Joseph Kuhn,
was twice cited for extreme bravery
in action is also revealed in Sergt.
Schroth's letters. Had a third cita-
ton come the way of the division
each member of it would have been
entitled to medal.
Now Replacement Division.
The division, Sergt. Schroth writes,
was at Reville November 80, and had
been made a replacement division for
the army Of occupation. This, he
writes, is taken to mean that the
men of the 18th are slated for a long
stay in Germany.
After landing at Brest last July,
the sergeant writes. the division pro-
ceeded to Vaux au Bigny, where it
started training. From there the di-
vision was sent to Aisne, on the Ar
come front. 1t was from that point
the 18th started, September 26. on the
drive that resulted in the capture by
the 18th Division of Montfaucon. The
latter place, he writes, was known
as "Germany's Gibraltar" and was
supposed to be impregnable.
But it was captured, and by the
79th,' Sergt. Schroth writes, with Com
pany right in the thickest of the
fight
After a ten-day rest the division was
sent to the st. Mihiel sector, going from
