Synopsis
Excerpt from History of the 27th Engineers, U. S. A: 1917-1919
This history is a composite production. I drafted the skeleton of the accounts of organization, preliminary training and demobiliza tion, and Lieutenant Burrage, who was appointed regimental his torian, did that for the overseas service. Then several officers, but especially Major Norcross and Major Franklin, wove into the story accounts of things with which they were especially acquainted, while Colonel Perry furnished a good deal of material and reviewed the whole. I have been the editor.
