I am sure Wilson accomplished some good while in the WH.I suppose whether he was a good president or not depends upon one’s view; I’ve seen plenty of arguments both pro and con. I’ve not studied him in depth, but know that he had principles and stuck to them - for both good and bad.
My grandfather served in WWI, as well; one of my favorite photos of him showed him in his “doughboy” uniform in 1918. He never talked much about it… I’m sure it was a miserable experience.
I am glad we have the footage that shows what miserable conditions the soldiers had to endure and other than the trenches what little protection they had.
As I watched the conclusion last night I wondered how the soldiers came to be known as “doughboys”.
