It will be remembered that Leonard Wood was considered by some as the man to lead the American Expeditionary forces in France.

This division, al-" though not then under the leadership of Gen ' eral Wood, was- given the place of honor over other National Army Divisions and was sent into Germany. , The members of this unit will never forget the farewell greetings extended by General Wood to the officers, arid men as they prepared for departure. General Wood was in tears when he mae ' this remarkable address: "You, are going over there, so live that you go over clean and sound. You' will feel -a lot better when you go up against death ' some day if you have been a clean and de- cent man. Do not forget this. Respect your , uniform.
