We claim no literary genius for this book. It is not written as a treatise on the war — but a simple narration of facts pertain ing to the part played by the men of the 8th (37oth) U. S. In lantry, composed largely of men from Berean Baptist Church and Congregation. We endeavor to show by concrete facts how despite the hardships and handicap of prejudice these men emerged from the World's great battle fields of Europe the most deco rated Regiment in the A. E. F. Hence in reading the following pages look not to find aught save the plain unvarnished story of the dangers through which we successfully passed — the hardships we endured, and our ultimate victory.
