Summary "The Delta of the Triple Elevens: The History of Battery D, 311th Field Artillery United States Army, American Expeditionary Forces" by William Elmer Bachman is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This comprehensive narrative details the experiences and events surrounding Battery D from its formation to its demobilization, including training, camaraderie, and the realities of war. The book is likely a tribute to the soldiers and a personal memoir reflecting on camaraderie, service, and the trials faced during World War I. At the start of the history, the author sets the stage by discussing the buildup to America's entry into World War I, touching upon the historical events that necessitated military mobilization. It introduces the formation of Battery D and the selection of Camp Meade, emphasizing the contrast between the soldiers’ peaceful civilian lives and the impending trials of military service. The initial chapters provide insights into the soldiers' training routines, personal anecdotes, and how they adapted to their new military life while highlighting the friendships forged during this transformative time. Bachman aims to create a lasting memory for the veterans of Battery D, capturing the shared experiences and challenges each faced in service to their country.
