Each howitzer was hauled by four pair of horses on the road. Three pair were used on each caisson, and one or two pair on the other carriages. A driver was mounted on the near horse of each pair. Non-commissioned officers and officers were mounted when there were enough animals. The gun crews marched be- hind their respective pieces, one of them being in charge of the brakes. In the zone of the ad- vance carriages generally kept fifty yards apart for safety, but on crowded roads it often was deemed wise to close up to keep other organizations from getting between sections and splitting the units.


In action guns were concealed as much as possible under nets of camouflage material, or beneath branches of trees. The men dug pits nearby for shelter from shell fire, and when not at their guns occupied shelters or dug caves which would protect them from bullets and shell splinters. It was impossible to con- struct shelters in a few hours which would save them from the effects of a direct hit by a shell.


Gas shells were used by the enemy in large quantities to harass the artillery. Battery F men worked their guns many times for hours while wearing the cumbersome and oppressive anti-gas masks provided for their protection.


The battery fired 3,468 shells during their training period, and 10,876 against the enemy.


During its entire period of service it had a record remarkable for its character. The bat- tery was composed of enthusiastic, patriotic young fellows who were anxious to do their duty in every respect. There were few cases


of court martial, and these were for offenses which would be considered trivial by a civilian. It accomplished every mission assigned to it, never received an official rebuke and was praised several times for its efficient work in battle and elsewhere in France. Its morale was of the highest and there was practically none of the internal dissensions which marked many military organizations.


Battery F left Racine on July 2, 1917, for Camp Douglas. It was selected to precede the regiment to Waco, Tex., and spent a month there as a detached organization, awaiting the arrival of the rest of the troops which were to constitute the Thirty-second division. It was intended for a light field artillery battery, but after being variously classified as light, heavy, horse-drawn and motorized artillery, it be- came heavy horse-drawn field artillery. It had some drill with 3-inch guns at Camp Mac- Arthur, but most of the time there was spent in foot drill and simulated gun drills, using logs to represent guns. It was equipped with rifles and had some practice on the range. There was an anti-aircraft machine gun section in each battery.


With the rest of the division it underwent the misery of blistering weather, terrific dust storms, practice marches and deferred hopes at Camp MacArthur. It was ready for over- seas service by Dec. 1, 1917, but lack of trans- ports kept most of the army in America. By January, 1918, it was announced that the ships were available.


About the first of the new year the division started to entrain for Camp Merritt, N. J., to embark for France. Battery F left Waco on Feb. 5, arriving at New York three days later. After some delay due to quarantine and shortage of vessels, the regiment embarked on March 3 on the U. S. S. Leviathan, formerly the Hamburg-American liner Vaterland, and arrived at Liverpool 6 days later without see- ing an enemy submarine. From Liverpool the regiment was transferred by rail to a camp at Winnel Downs near Winchester, England; thence to Southampton and across the English channel to Havre. After a few days in the rest camp at Sanvic, near Havre, the men en- trained again and were taken to Camp de Coet- quidan, at Guer, France, where for two months the artillerymen studied gunnery, fired on the range and learned everything which their French instructors could teach them about the 155 mm howitzer and the science of trench and field warfare. On June 8 Battery F, with the rest of the regiment, entrained with guns and horses and equipment, for Belfort, from which

city they marched to Ettonfont-le-bas, near the Alsatian frontier. On June 11 the batter- ies were formed in eschelon-guns and cais- sons in position to fire, horses and drivers bil- leted in nearby towns and the reserve drivers, cannoneers, supply wagons, etc., remaining in the rear at Ettonfont.


This method of escheloning was generally followed throughout the war to avoid needless risk for men not actually engaged in handling the pieces, although at times it was not possible to withdraw the rear eschelon entirely from the danger zone.


The firing battery was near the village of Bretton, across the frontier and well into Al- sace. Later on it moved about two miles fur- ther east where it was in active support of the infantry.


While the regiment was at Camp de Coetqui- dan, Battery C, of Racine and Battery E of Green Bay were assigned to duty at officers' training camps in France and did not rejoin the organization until the conclusion of the armistice. The regiment, therefore, had only four batteries at the front-A, B, D, and F. The Second battalion consisted of D, and F batteries and as the battalion was the tactical unit at the front they were always together. Its battalion commanders were, in turn, Maj. George W. Rickeman, Maj. E. V. Cook and Maj. Kane. Capt. Haight of Racine was bat- talion adjutant and Lieut. Roscoe Guilbert of Racine was battalion telephone officer. Bat- talion headquarters was generally between the firing batteries in action. Regimental head- quarters was usually from half a mile to a mile or more to the rear, near the battery eschelons and connected with the battalion headquarters by field telephone lines. The fir- ing batteries were from half a mile to a mile and a half back of the front infantry lines, ac- cording to the movements of the infantry.


On June 14 Battery F, fired its first shot at the enemy, and from that time on indulged in fairly frequent "shoots" at the German trench- es. On June 30 a heavy barrage fire was laid down by the entire divisional and French sup- porting artillery, for on that evening the in- fantry made a raid on the opposing trenches. All branches received high praise for the man- ner in which the maneuver was conducted. Al- though the Battery, and especially its advanced observing parties, were under fire in this area several times, there were no casualties. For various reasons this sector was immune from serious battles or attempts by either side to gain territory. These reasons were partly topographical, but mainly political.


Training under actual field conditions having been completed the division was withdrawn. The artillery entraining at Belfort on July 24, arrived the next day at Ormoy-Villers. From there the command marched to Pont St. Max- ence, presumably for a week's rest.


At this time the German drive toward Paris had finally been stopped near Chateau-Thierry by American and French troops and a counter- offensive begun. It was decided to hurl all the available strength of American arms into the fray to relieve the war-wearied French troops and the two divisions of Americans who had forced the Germans across the Marne.


On twelve hours' notice the Thirty-second division started for Chateau-Thierry July 27. The artillery brigade marched the 92 miles in four night marches, without losing a man or horse, a truly remarkable performance. The men became terribly fatigued, often walking or riding for miles while sound asleep. They car- ried full packs and rifles and only the drivers were allowed to ride, as it was essential that the horses be saved as much as possible. The men slept in fields and woods when halted, seldom taking time to pitch their shelter tents.


Arriving at Chateau-Thierry the division was put in action at once in the effort to drive the German invaders out of the territory re- cently conquered, and insure the safety of Paris, Rheims and numerous railroads and ave- nues of communication of the Allied armies. A month before the fortune of the Allies had been at its lowest ebb, and only the magnifi- cent stand of the newly arrived Americans at the Marne had lent hope to the sadly harassed armies of Foch.


Battery F moved daily trying to keep in touch with the infantry, which ignored all prec- edents by pushing forward constantly, re- gardless of the success or failure of units on the flank. While the artillery often was left behind in these rushes, it gave all the assist- ance needed and was able to neutralize and out-shoot the foe, most of whose cannon were kept on the roads trying to escape capture.


On July 30 the divisional infantry engaged in a bitter hand to hand fight for the wood of Grimpettes, and on the following day had cleared the foe from its environs. They neared Cierges, which lay in a valley. The Germans filled the town with mustard gas during a severe bombardment. After fierce fighting there, the Americans went around the town, captured or crushed the machine gun nests on the heights to the north, cleared out the woods of Joublets and on the 1st of August had ad- vanced until they confronted Reddy Farm and

Hill 230, both strong points of resistance. On the first assault the 32nd division infantry gained both positions, capturing many prison- ers. When Battery F moved forward past Reddy Farm the artillerymen found the ground literally covered with human corpses, and car- casses of German horses. Grain fields had been mowed down by machine gun fire and every- where were strewn rifles, grenades, helmets, and equipment of the fleeing foe.


On the afternoon of August 1, Batteries D, and F, underwent their first direct attack from the air. Four German aeroplanes swooped down on them near the village of Fresnes and poured a stream of machine gun bullets along the column. Some of the missiles passed be- tween carriages but not a man was wounded. Not a soldier left his position in column, and by the time the first plane reached the head of the column the four machine guns mounted on the caissons were firing on it, and the can- noneers and drivers kept up a hot rifle fire against the aerial raiders. It was believed that the leader of the squadron was wounded. Anyway, he darted away from the vicinity of . the road and the other fliers followed him back toward the German lines. This was the first of many similar attacks. In some instances the aviators would drop grenades or bombs on the roads.


For six days the indomitable infantry crawled and ran and shot and bayoneted its way northward through Cohan, and Dravigny and the hilly ground north of Saint Martin, manoevering where necessary, flanking when cleverly concealed machine gun nests foiled frontal attacks-but always gaining, always fighting, never giving their sorely harassed foes a chance to reform their lines or establish firm positions. The one road into the sector was jammed hy traffic, covered with mud and debris, subjected to fire from guns on the ground and aviators overhead. Finally the in- fantry got to Fismes and the valley of the Vesle and on Aug. 4, with assistance from the artillery, they forced their way into the village and after house to house and hand to hand fighting there for nearly two days drove the last of the living invaders across the Vesle to their old lines on the heights beyond.


Battery F had its share in the attacks. It had several casualties, William Weiss being killed and sixteen wounded, and it lost some thirty horses by shell fire. Remaining in "Death Valley," a mile south of the Vesle for nearly three weeks it underwent the discom- forts of constant hombardment, poison gases, aeroplane attacks and the presence of the sick-


ening odors of the battlefield. One gun was put out of action by shell fire on Aug. 19. During this period the battery eschelon was at Cohan and regimental headquarters at Dra- vigny.


Although the infantry crossed the Vesle river occasionally on successful raids, it was seen that the German positions there were too strong for immediate capture, and the high command decided upon a flanking movement, which proved successful. The battery was withdrawn from the sector on August 23, moved in long marches around west of Sois- sons, and after a brief halt in the woods of St. Etienne was sent north across the Aisne river, from where an assault was launched toward Juvigny in an easterly direction. The tactics of a month before were repeated and again the Americans, aided by the First Mo- roccan division of the French army, drove the Germans back in confusion during a week of bloody, hand to hand battling.


During this campaign Battery F's eschelon was at Hors, the firing battery moving first to Epagny, where it was under fire for a day and night in a wooded valley, and then ad- vanced to a ravine a mile or so from Juvigny. Here it was under severe fire from aeroplanes, enemy machine guns, rifles, and artillery, a sudden falling back of the infantry putting the battery within a few hundred feet of the front line of the infantry. Both F and D bat- teries suffered many casualties in this posi- tion, which was the most exposed of any held during the war. Battery F lost Corporal Harold Kister killed and two officers and 16 enlisted men wounded and gassed. At no time, however, did it fail to provide the firing called for, and it received commendation for its work at this dangerous position.


About Sept. 2 the infantry captured Juvigny in a terrific attack and within another day had advanced to Terny-Sorny, and the German lines above the Vesle river were now so endangered from the flank and rear that they had to be evacuated.


Off to the southwest, part of the First Ameri- can army had now begun its attack on the St. Mihiel salient. The Thirty-second division had concluded its joh, and was started off to assist at St. Mihiel, but later recalled and given a ten days' rest, Battery F being at Wassy. It seems that the disheartened Germans had fled and the Americans nipped off this salient without difficulty. Resolved to continue the policy of hammering everywhere and continu- ously, the high command sent all reserve American forces, including the 32nd division,

into the Argonne sector, west of the Meuse, and under the cover of fog and rain they were massed there for attack. By Sept. 25 Battery F was in position near Esne, after a march of about a week. The eschelon was near Dom- basle in a woods.


On Sept. 26 the surprise attack was launched after a three hour artillery preparation. The 121st artillery supported the 79th division, our own infantry being in reserve during the first five days of the Argonne battle.


The surprise was complete. The artillery drove the Germans into their dugouts deep under the ground and before they had realized the time for attack had come, the American in- fantry went over the top on a ten mile front and went across the muddy, shell torn fields, through the battered barbed wire and into the foe's defenses, capturing or killing all the foes there. Without a pause, before the German artillery could get into action effectively, the "doughboys" followed the American barrage forward to the slopes of the towering hill of Montfaucon.


This Meuse-Argonne sector had been consid- ered as impregnable. The Germans were con- fident of it. The French had long ago given up hope of its recapture. The latest feat of the Americans aroused the greatest enthusiasm throughout France.


The territory was barren, bleak and desolate. No Man's Land was a torn and forbidding stretch, containing the mud encrusted bones of thousands who had died during the attack on Verdun in 1916. Barbed wire guarded the en- tire front. The German trenches were deep and perfectly built and maintained.


In the rear of the trenches was a long stretch of rolling country, filled with treacher- ous gullies and spotted with patches of woods and underbrush which offered perfect conceal- ment for machine guns and artillery. Rail- roads brought supplies to the Germans at all points along the line.


When the Americans advanced they had to build roads to bring their supplies forward. They encountered mines and man traps. There was little drinking water obtainable. They were harassed at every step by aeroplanes and long range artillery.


Battery F, with the other artillery moved forward day by day. The men were undaunted by lack of food, water, clothing and supplies. Near Montfaucon the Battery's machine guns assisted in bringing two aeroplanes to earth. The artillery work itself was magnificent. Again the men were under fire for days at a time and suffered numerous casualties, includ- ing Nick Garski killed and five men wounded.


From Montfaucon the hattery moved to Eclesfontaine, and on October 25 again went forward to Romagne, where it assisted in the general offensive on Nov. 1. On Nov. 5 the number of horses having been so reduced by shell fire as to make rapid advances impossible, and the end of the war being in sight, the regi- ment was withdrawn to a position in reserve, and three days later started back to Bussy, near Bar le Duc, to be motorized. It was en route there when the armistice was signed.


Battery F participates in the numerous cita- tions in praise of the 32nd division and its members can be proud of an unblemished and honorable record during the historic days.


The battery remained at Bussy until Dec. 22, and entrained at Revigny for Dumont, and from that point marched to Rozieres where it went into camp and received motor equipment. It was assigned to the 88th division temporari- ly for maneuvers and drill. With the rest of the Fifty-seventh brigade it left April 15, 1919, for Brest and sailed April 30 for Boston on the U. S. S. Georgia. The battery was mustered out at Camp Grant, Ill., on May 19, 1919, and entrained for Racine in a body, with Battery C and the rest of the 121st Field Artillery regi- ment.


Despite numerous changes in personnel dur- ing the war, a fairly complete roster of officers and men of Battery F has been preserved through the foresight of First Sergeant Max J. Zirbes. The names in it include casuals and replacements who may have been members for only a short time. In the following list on page 244 the ones who were wounded, gassed or shell- shocked are designated by a (*), and further details regarding the Racine men are in their individual records in another chapter. Those who were killed, died of wounds or died of disease are designated by a (d) before their names:
