CHAPTER VII

AS the French authorities wished TO
honor our national holiday they re-
quested that some of our troops pa
rade in Paris July 4. 1917. We were
lot prepared TO make much Of a mill
tary impression, as our men were
largely recruits. But TO stimulate
morale the French wanted TO demon
strate that the Americans were actu-
ally coming, so a battalion of the Six
teenth infantry was brought up from
Saint NaZaire.
The unframed, awkward appearance
OF this unit, which was accepted as
the cream Of our regular army by the
French officials, no doubt tended TO
confirm their belief that ii would be
some time before we should be able
TO organize an effective army.
II they could have foreseen the ri-
umph Of this same battalion at the
peak of the great counter-offensive on
the field of scissors Just one year lat
er we might have been spared many
delays and difficulties in carrying out
our plans.

Nevertheless, the first appearance of
American combat troops in Paris
brought joyful acclaim from the peo-
pie. On the march the battalion was
accompanied by a great crowd. many
women forcing their way into the
ranks and swinging along arm in arm
with the men. With wreaths about
their necks and flowers in their hats
and on their rifles the column had the
appearance of moving flower garden.
With only semblance of military
formation the animated throng pushed
its way through avenues of people TO
the martial strains of the French band
and the still more thrilling music of
cheering voices. Many dropped on
their knees in reverence as the COL
umn went by.
