This book was released on 1959 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Marylanders and Virginians of the 29th Division fought in a single major engagement in World War I, the attack on 8 October in conjunction with the 33rd Division on the heights east of the Meuse. The 29th Division was slow to recognize the effectiveness of gas as a weapon or the fact that the cumulative effects fo gas could in time be as productive of casualties as a sudden concentration. Its early experience with gas, in Alsace, where several crash concentrations of gas produced large numbers of quick casualties, did not prepare the division for its later experience in the Argonne. Although as thoroughly trained in gas defense as its Division Gas Officer, Capt. Alden H. Waitt, could make it, the division nevertheless suffered almost three times as many gas casualties as all other battle casualties put together while training in the trenches in Alsace.

This book was released on 1960 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No division in the AEF has so much sheer ill fortune as the 26th. Single-handedly, the 26th Division demonstrated almost every possible mistake that could be made in the use of gas. The French were generous and gave the division considerably gas ammunition, most of it odd lots of cyanic and lachrymatory shells that when fired served largely to provoke serious retalliation. In the one instance, for a raid on enemy trenches, when the division fired a sufficient quantity of phosgene to be effective, the gas swept down on the raiding troops and gassed every man. The 26th Division has the unhappy distinction of suffering the greatest number of gas casualties, most of them on quiet fronts, in the AEF. The present study spans the career of the 26th Division in France, concentrating on the gas episodes that did so much to nullify the original splendid promise of the division.

Download or read book U.S. Army Chemical Corps Historical Studies, Gas Warfare in World War I: The 78th Division at the Kriemhilde Stellung, October 1918 written by Rexmond C. Cochrane and published by . This book was released on 1957 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just prior to the final assault of the Meuse-Argonne offensive, the 78th Division played a major role in a large-scale, Army-directed gas operation on that front. Although the division was engaging in its first and only assault operation of the war, it participated in the execution of one of the most successful gas missions of American forces, when the extreme right and left flanks of the First American Army front were heavily yperited to protect the principal attack of the Army through the center. The present study relates the gas warfare experience of the 78th Division in its three weeks on the First Army front, culminating in its yperite mission of 30 October.
Book Synopsis U.S. Army Chemical Corps Historical Studies, Gas Warfare in World War I: The 89th Division in the Bois de Bantheville, October 1918 by : Rexmond C. Cochrane
Download or read book U.S. Army Chemical Corps Historical Studies, Gas Warfare in World War I: The 89th Division in the Bois de Bantheville, October 1918 written by Rexmond C. Cochrane and published by . This book was released on 1960 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 89th Division finally cleared the Bois de Bantheville on the morning of 23 October. 'From that day until the jump off, morning of November 1, were written some of the bloodiest and most tragic pages in the history of the 89th Division.' This dramatic sentence referred to the week-long occupation of the Bois de Bantheville under almost continuous gas and HE fire. The enemy massed his mustard gas shells in a belt across the narrow center of the wood. This made it possible for the 89th to keep troops in the relatively gas free area around the top of the wood but made their supply enormously hazardous. Under tight discipline and division and corps orders to evacuate at once any area that became contaminated, gas casualties were probably held to an absolute minimum.

This book was released on 1957 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps the most publicized single unit operation in World War I was the stand of the 2nd Division across the Paris Road and the subsequent battle of that division for Belleau Wood. The artillery, machine gun, and rifle duel fought over the kilometer of terrain near Chateau Thierry in June 1918 has been well described in both Marine and Army publications and in popular and official histories. Many of these accounts acknowledge briefly and in passing the use of gas in the battle. Some fail to mention gas entirely, despite the fact that in this operation, its first independent combat action, the 2nd Division waws under some kind of gas attack on 31 of the 35 days of the campaign. For a period of three or four days following the gas attack of 14-15 June, a determined effort by the German forces opposite might well have shattered the entire front of the 2nd Division and opened the way to Meaux and Paris.

Book Synopsis Chemical Warfare in World War I by : Charles E Heller
Download or read book Chemical Warfare in World War I written by Charles E Heller and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-09-16 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Leavenworth Paper chronicles the introduction of chemical agents in World War I, the U.S. Army's tentative preparations for gas warfare prior to and after American entry into the war, and the AEF experience with gas on the Western Front. Chemical warfare affected tactics and almost changed the outcome of World War I. The overwhelming success of the first use of gas caught both sides by surprise. Fortunately, the pace of hostilities permitted the Allies to develop a suitable defense to German gas attacks and eventually to field a considerable offensive chemical capability. Nonetheless, from the introduction of chemical warfare in early 1915 until Armistice Day in November, 1918, the Allies were usually one step behind their German counterparts in the development of gas doctrine and the employment of gas tactics and procedures. In his final report to Congress on World War I, General John J. Pershing expressed the sentiment of contemporary senior officers when he said, "Whether or not gas will be employed in future wars is a matter of conjecture, but the effect is so deadly to the unprepared that we can never afford to neglect the question." General Pershing was the last American field commander actually to confront chemical agents on the battlefield. Today, in light of a significant Soviet chemical threat and solid evidence of chemical warfare in Southeast and Southwest Asia, it is by no means certain he will retain that distinction. Over 50 percent of the Total Army's Chemical Corps assets are located within the United States Army Reserve. This Leavenworth Paper was prepared by the USAA Staff Officer serving with the Combat Studies Institute, USACGSC, after a number of requests from USAA Chemical Corps officers for a historical study on the nature of chemical warfare in World War I. Despite originally being published in 1984, this Leavenworth Paper also meets the needs of the Total Army in its preparations to fight, if necessary, on a battlefield where chemical agents might be employed.

This book was released on 1959 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The capture of Cantingy by the 1st Division was prestige operation. In the attack on 27 May the 1st Division recaptured Cantigny, and what had been a slight salient in the French lines became a thorny salient in the German lines. Despite murderous HE and gas fire, the division held on to Cantigny itself. The present study chronicles the gas experience of the 1st Division in its seventy-two days in the Cantigny sector, during which almost half of the total casualties suffered were the result of gas.

Download or read book U.S. Army Chemical Corps Historical Studies, Gas Warfare in World War I: The 26th Division in the Aisne-Marne Campaign, July 1918 written by Rexmond C. Cochrane and published by . This book was released on 1957 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In its week of fighting, the 26th Division advanced seventeen kilometers, the first real advance made by an American division as a unit in World War I. Unlike the French divisions on its flanks, the 26th Division made that advance without the advantage of gas. Its gas casualties, on the other hand, were all out of proportion to those suffered by the French divisions. The emphasis in this report is almost equally divided between the gas experience of the division in the two weeks prior to its advance and, partly as a result of that experience, its reaction to gas during the advance.
