Description

The story of the "Old Army" as revealed through the eyes of Colonel Jacob Kreps, this book dramatically portrays life in action with the US Infantry on the Western frontier, in the Spanish-American War, and in the Philippine Insurrection. Drawing on the first-hand accounts preserved in the diary of Kreps, who served for more than 30 years with the US Twenty-second Infantry Regiment, A.B. Feuer details the hardships endured by the soldiers in combat action. Feuer recounts the experiences of the distinguished US Twenty-second Infantry Regiment beginning in 1883. He also discusses numerous other US Army units - infantry, cavalry, artillery, engineering, medical, quartermaster and signal - and offers important data on the US Navy and US Marine Corps. Some of the accounts, such as that of the Pasig River battle and the Mindanao campaign, fill in missing chapters in the chronicles of war history.
