This official history of the NZ Machine Gun Corps during the 1914-18 conflict ... deals briefly with the origins of the unit and the departure from Egypt for France of the main body for service there, while a lesser number of troops remained for campaigning in Sinai and Palestine. Part one deals in depth and detail with the Westen Front, with the second and smaller section covering the Middle East. In both theatres the corps participated with distinction in most notable engagements. The 12 pages of tight lines of fatalities the corps suffered during the war demonstrates eloquently that their successes only came at heavy cost. -- abebooks website.

The U.S. Army evolved into a truly modern fighting force during World War I. When the U.S. entered the war in 1917, the infantry was its primary offensive arm. Training focused mainly on target practice, bayonet charges and marching drills. Antiquated tactics emphasized massive attack waves relying on ferocity to achieve battlefield objectives. Heavy casualties resulted when inexperienced American troops encountered entrenched German veterans trained in the use of modern artillery and machine guns. By war's end the American Expeditionary Force had progressed along a bloody learning curve, developing sophisticated techniques--small flexible formations, fire-and-maneuver and infiltration--for breaking the trench warfare stalemate. Eventually, the AEF integrated new weapons like poison gas, tanks and aircraft into its offensive tactics and pioneered the mechanized combined arms warfare still practiced by the U.S. Army. The exploits of the Fifth "Red Diamond" Division exemplify this critical period of development.
