在約翰‧皮爾辛 (John J. Pershing) 將軍的領導下,美國軍隊於1918912日展開在第一次世界大戰中的首次大規模攻擊行動

從美國於1917年對德國宣戰,並且投入第一次世界大戰開始,美國軍隊就在歐洲作戰。但是美軍當時只負責支援法國與英國,主要的作戰還是由這兩個國家來負責。西元1918912日,美國特遣部隊 (American Expeditionary ForcesAEF) 在約翰‧皮爾辛將軍的指揮下,發動美軍在歐洲首次的主要獨立攻擊行動。而特遣部隊的勝利也為協約國在歐洲戰場的戰況帶來轉機。最後,美國軍隊協助盟軍擊敗德國,戰爭比預期時間還要更早結束。


Since 1917, when the U.S. declared war on Germany and entered World War I, American divisions had fought in Europe. But they had only fought in support of the major French or British units already firmly entrenched in the effort. On September 12, 1918, the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF) under General John J. Pershing launched their first major offensive in Europe as an independent army. Their successful campaign was a major turning point in the war for the Allies. Ultimately, U.S. forces helped to defeat Germany earlier than expected.
