Synopsis
Remembering World War I is a story of the raw war emotions expressed by a volunteer engineer, Charles Edward Dilkes, who left the comforts of high society to shoulder a shovel and rifle to serve his country. His emotions go from patriotic fervor to the reality of the true cost of freedom, which he experienced in the carnage of life. Once committed to the war effort, Charles Edward Dilkes displayed firm resolve. This book is based on the memoirs he wrote of his World War I experiences from enlistment through honorable discharge. He saved many artifacts, which added dimension to the publication of Remembering World War I. The main artifact is his diary, which he kept daily from the time he left American shores in August 1917, through the armistice signed on November 11, 1918, and until he completed his service to his country as part of the U.S. Army of Occupation in Germany. At one point going into battle in the Aisne-Marne Campaign, he buried his diary in case the German offensive
