    3. Re: WWI Lost Battalion, To Jim Albrecht. Wonderful post on that subject. I just finished reading an account in Laurence Stallings' , "The Doughboys," (1963 Harper & Row, Library of Congress # 62-14547). If I'm not mistaken Stallings was a marine with the 2nd Division. He also co-authored (with Maxwell Anderson) "What Price Glory" which (I think) made a stage play and two motion pictures. The battalion is given only a chapter in this work but it is still worth reading. Though out of print, Amazon tracked it down for me within one month. I have a soft spot for marines in that I am still alive because a marine pilot took an interest in an old B-29 that was being given a bad time by some MIG 15s up near the Yalu on New Years Eve 1952.
