15 Belgium Belgium was brought into WWI after Germany’s invasion in 1914. Located between France and England, it was the country in which much of the heaviest fighting on the western front was located, and the country that perhaps made the greatest sacrifices. The Belgian people have similar feelings of pride and remembrance that Pennsylvanians have towards the Battle of Gettysburg. Page 167.

16 “Doughboys” in WWI The American soldier was nicknamed “doughboy” during WWI, and there are several theories as to why. 1. The dust on the gray uniforms looked like flour. 2. They were plump and well fed in 1917 after not fighting, whereas the German, British, and French soldiers were war weary and malnourished. 3. They were “kneaded” in ‘14 but didn’t “rise” until ‘17. One of the more controversial movies of late is “American Sniper.” The first person account of life during WWI starting on page 156 includes some pretty strong opinions of snipers and what they do! NTK Lists & Review Pages when done with the reading. Test tomorrow, all multiple choice, bring #2 pencil.
