New Mexico, Stati Uniti, Documenti della prima guerra mondiale, 1917-1919
Questa raccolta dell’Aiutante maggiore del New Mexico contiene diverse serie di documenti che riportano il servizio prestato dallo stato durante la prima guerra mondiale.
When the U.S. entered World War I, New Mexicans had recently been involved in hostilities closer to home. The Mexican Punitive Expedition, launched to capture Pancho Villa, formally ended in February 1917, just two months before the U.S. declared war on Germany. The New Mexico National Guard was once again called into service, along with troops from across the U.S. This collection from the Adjutant General of New Mexico contains a diverse array of records documenting the state’s service in the “war to end all wars.”
Among the rich records in this collection, you’ll find
- service records
- biographical materials
- letters
- casualty lists
- awards and commendations
- photographs
