Corps Intervention Planning Strategies Strategy Tactics Terrain
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intensity and focus of General John J. Pershing's right-hand man, Marine Corps Commander Major General Smedley D. Butler, as he meticulously plans military strategies during the United States' intervention in the First World War. Dated to 1918, the image finds Butler engrossed in studying a map of the terrain, likely in preparation for the upcoming Battle of Belleau Wood. As one of the most decorated Marines in American history, Butler's expertise in tactics and military strategy proved invaluable to the Allied forces during the war. The First World War marked the first time the United States played a significant role in a major international conflict, and the American Expeditionary Forces, under the command of General Pershing, made a considerable impact on the Western Front. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the inner workings of the military mind, as Butler and his team worked tirelessly to devise effective strategies to secure victory for the Allies. Major General Smedley D. Butler's career spanned over forty years, and his leadership during the First World War cemented his place in American military history. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the crucial role planning and strategy played in the outcome of the war, and the sacrifices made by the brave men and women who served. This photograph, taken in 1918, is a testament to the rich history of military strategy and planning, and the pivotal role it played in shaping the course of the First World War. The intricacies of the terrain, the importance of troop placement, and the potential outcomes of various battle plans are all on display in this image of Major General Smedley D. Butler in action.
