Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Born in rural Florida during the Reconstruction, Charles Pelot Summerall (1867-1955) enrolled in West Point in 1888. After graduating, Summerall's Army career helped to pull his family out of extreme poverty and set him on a path to eventually become a decorated war hero, four-star General, U.S. Army Chief of Staff, and President of the Citadel. Straddling the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Summerall's service began when the U.S. government was still conducting raids on the Plains Indians and ended after the country had survived two devastating global wars. The rapid advancement of war technology, particularly aviation and artillery, made Summerall's Army tenure one in which the very nature of war was irrevocably changed. As commander of the 1st Division in France during World War I, Summerall led three major operations, all of which were successful. Buoyed by his wartime performance and reputation, Summerall was appointed U.S. Army Chief of Staff in 1926, where he engaged in repeated administrative battles to stabilize the Army's dwindling resources. After his retirement in 1931, Summerall went on to serve as President of the Citadel, where he doubled enrollment, balanced the budget, garnered accreditation, and led the school to become a nationally recognized institution as opposed to a small regional military school.
