William Faulkner THE great southern author of the 20th Century who wrote "A Fable," "Soldier's Pay" and "the Sound and the Fury" served in the RAF during the war.

General John "Blackjack" Pershing commander of black cavalry troopers in the 10th Cavalry and chaser of Poncho Villa. Commanded US forces in France.

General Henry "Hap" Arnold served in the fledgling American Air Service.

General Leonard Wood trained the 89th Infantry Division here at Fort Riley, Kansas, but President Wilson being a Democrat, feared that Wood, a Republican, might become a war hero and return home to run against him for president in 1920. So Wood was forced to remain here at Riley while his unit shipped out. He was then given command of the 10th Infantry Division that was forming at Camp Funston. It was being deployed when the war ended.

I also think that F. Scott Fitzgerald, who wrote the "Great Gatsby" joined the military but was stationed in Canada and never saw combat. VR, Scott
