Pershing is hugely under-rated, a highly experienced field officer with a varied serving career. Fought Indians with the 10th (coloured) cavalry in the west Fought with the 10th in Cuba with Rooselvelt and his rough riders. Chased Pancho Villa around northern Mexico Then command the AEF in Europe |
