On June 6 the American victory at Château-Thierry was beginning to become a little more clear, although the newspapers anticipated more action. That action was ongoing in the Belleau Wood, which was just next door and which really is part of the same battle.
In Sheridan the town in engaged in an absurd overreaction and the schools burned German books. Learning German certainly didn't make a person some sort of German sympathizer and indeed, learning the language of your enemy is a good idea.
A Natrona County resident measuring 6'7", very tall for any age, enlisted in the Army. I'm somewhat surprised that his height didn't disqualify him for service. You can be too tall to join.
