Meuse Argonne - Army of One

from Battles of the First World War Podcast

Finally, the retired United States Army motto finds a proper use. On October 7th, 1918, PVT John Lewis Barkley, a scout in the 3rd Division AEF, decided "to make things interesting for the Germans for a while." With a captured machine gun and some four thousand rounds of ammunition, he engaged an enemy battalion-sized unit. Single-handedly. From inside an abandoned tank. Here is his story.
