  21. WILSON ASKED FOR A DECLARATION OF WAR APRIL 2, 1917 (AFTER HE GOT RE-ELECTED WITH THE SLOGAN “HE KEPT US OUT OF WAR”)… SUBMARINE WARFARE IS “WARFARE AGAINST MANKIND”… THE “WORLD MUST BE MADE SAFE FOR DEMOCRACY.” A few dissenting votes: Jeanette Rankin Robert LaFollette SECRETARY OF STATE WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN RESIGNED 15/31

  27. NEW TECHNOLOGY SUCH AS POISONOUS GASES (MUSTARD GAS), FIGHTER PLANES, MACHINE GUNS, GRENADES, AND TANKS MADE THIS WAR ONE OF THE BLOODIEST AND MOST DESTRUCTIVE EVER SEEN… 21/31

  28. AS THE WAR BEGAN, UNARMED PLANES WERE USED FOR SPYING. SOON, EACH SIDE ATTATCHED MACHINE GUNS IN FRONT OF THE PILOT. A DUTCH ENGINEER FIGURED OUT HOW TO STOP THE FIRING WHEN THE PROPELLOR MOVED IN FRONT OF THE GUN. WE HAD >20 ACES (PILOTS WITH 5 KILLS) -TRAVELED 70 TO 130 MILES PER HOUR -EXPOSED COCKPITS (SOME DRANK WHISKEY TO KEEP WARM) -PILOTS SAT ON TOP OF THE GASOLINE TANK. -MOST 19-25 AND ONLY LIVED ABOUT 3 WEEKS. 22/31

  29. …we’ve lost a lot of good men. It’s only a question of time until we all get it. I’m all shot to pieces. I only hope I can stick it. I don’t want to quit. My nerves are all gone and I can’t stop. I’ve lived beyond my time already…Here I am, twenty-four years old, I look forty and feel ninety. I’ve lost all interest in life beyond the next patrol. No Hun will ever get me and I’ll never fall into a trap, but sooner or later I’ll be forced to fight against odds that are too long or perhaps a stray shot from the ground will be lucky and I will have gone in vain. Or my motor will cut out when we are trench strafing or a wing will pull off in a dive…It gives me a dizzy feeling every time I hear of the men that are gone. And they have gone so fast I can’t keep track of them; every time two pilots meet it is only to swap news of who’s killed. When a person takes sick, lingers in bed a few days, dies and is buried on the third day, it all seems regular and they pass on into the great beyond in an orderly manner and you accept their departure as an accomplished fact. But when you lunch with a man, talk to him, see him go out and get in his plane in the prime of his youth and the next day someone tells you that he is dead—it just doesn’t sink in and you can’t believe it. And the oftener it happens the harder it is to believe. I’ve lost over a hundred friends, so they tell me… but to me they aren’t dead yet. They are just around the corner, I think, and I’m still expecting to run into them any time. I dream about them at night when I do sleep a little. John McGavock Grider 23/31

  30. MUCH OF THE WAR WAS FOUGHT IN TRENCHES—LONG NARROW DITCHES DUG BY SOLDIERS TO HIDE IN… THEY ZIGZAGGED ALL OVER THE WESTERN FRONT, A 450 MILE LONG BATTLE LINE DIVIDING THE TWO SIDES. 24/31

  31. The last major offensive of the war, the Meuse-Argonne began in September and ended in November 1918. The heaviest fighting occurred in the Argonne Forrest where 10% (120,000) of all U.S. troops died due to tough terrain, heavy machine gun fire, and inadequate training. 25/31

  32. THE BIG FOUR GEORGES CLEMENCEAU (FRANCE) DAVID LLOYD GEORGE (BRITAIN) VITTORIO ORLANDO (ITALY) WOODROW WILSON (U.S.) BIG 4 26/31

  33. Alvin York was the most decorated American soldier in WWI. He was awarded the Medal of Honor for leading an attack on a German machine gun nest, taking 32 machine guns, killing 28 German soldiers and capturing 132 others. This action occurred during the Muse-Argonne Offensive in France. He began the war as a conscientious objector. “I teched off the sixth man first; then the fifth; then the fourth; then the third; and so on. That's the way we shoot wild turkeys at home. You see we don't want the front ones to know that we're getting the back ones, and then they keep on coming until we get them all. I knowed, too, that if the front ones wavered, or if I stopped them the rear ones would drop down and pump a volley into me and get me.”

  34. WILSON’S 14 POINTS WERE PART OF HIS PLAN FOR “PEACE WITHOUT VICTORY”… INCLUDING… -FREEDOM OF THE SEAS -ABOLISH SECRET TREATIES -REDUCTION OF ARMS -REMOVAL OF ECONOMIC BARRIERS -LEAGUE OF NATIONS 14 POINTS 27/31

  35. RESULTS OF THE GREAT WAR (UNDER THE VERSAILLES TREATY) • GERMANY GIVES UP TERRITORY (Alsace-Lorraine to FR; Colonies go to Allies) • THE SIZE OF THE GERMAN ARMY REDUCED. NO SUBMARINES, NO PLANES • GERMANY HAD TO PAY REPAIRATIONS OF $33 MILLION (Originally scheduled for 56.5 billion) • LEAGUE OF NATIONS FORMED 5. COMMUNIST (RED) scare in America Germany said couldn’t do everything required, but forced to sign… HISTORIANS BELIEVE THAT THE LOSS OF PRIDE AND ECONOMIC HARDSHIPS LED TO THE RISE OF HITLER… 28/31

  36. THE U.S. NEVER JOINED THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS BECAUSE WILSON HAD A STROKE AND HENRY CABOT LODGE LED THE OPPOSITION. 29/31

  37. THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS ESTABLISHED IN 1920 TO SOLVE ANY PROBLEMS AFTER THE WAR… WHY DID IT FAIL? • INCLUDED ALL MAJOR NATIONS BUT THE U.S. • REQUIRED UNANIMOUS AGREEMENT • NO POWER TO TAX, NO MONEY • NO MILITARY TO ENFORCE DECISIONS • NO POWER COULDN’T STOP JAPAN FROM INVADING MANCHURIA, ITALY FROM INVADING ETHIOPIA, OR WAR BETWEEN BOLIVIA & PARAGUAY. 30/31

  38. AS THE WAR CAME TO AN END, OUR ANTI-GERMAN HYSTERIA TURNED TO ANTI-COMMUNIST HYSTERIA. AMERICA WENT THROUGH… THE RED SCARE AND THE PALMER RAIDS ATTORNEY GENERAL A. MITCHELL PALMER APPOINTED J. EDGAR HOOVER TO OVERSEE INVESTIGATIONS. NOV 1919 TO JAN 1920—6,000 ARRESTS (MOSTLY FOREIGN BORN, 500 DEPORTED) 31/31
