Documents de la Première Guerre Mondiale, Nouveau-Mexique, États-Unis, 1917 à 1919
Cette collection de l’adjudant général du Nouveau-Mexique contient un large éventail de documents sur le service de l’État pendant la Première Guerre Mondiale.
When the U.S. entered World War I, New Mexicans had recently been involved in hostilities closer to home. The Mexican Punitive Expedition, launched to capture Pancho Villa, formally ended in February 1917, just two months before the U.S. declared war on Germany. The New Mexico National Guard was once again called into service, along with troops from across the U.S. This collection from the Adjutant General of New Mexico contains a diverse array of records documenting the state’s service in the “war to end all wars.”

- service records
- biographical materials
