It is nice to see moving images of Pershing and the US troops. They had to learn a lot in a short space of time and they did well.

I don't know if you noticed, but there are three reels of film there. In the middle reel, there are a couple interesting shots of St Chamond tanks operating with the AEF.

Yes I did! The FT-17s were interesting also - a mix of mg- armed and 37mm tanks.
