The 10th and 20th Forestry Engineers of World War I

Von

Forest History Society

"During World War I, two U.S. Army Regiments of forestry engineers worked in France to provide the Allied forces with the large amount of timber necessary for the war effort. Those making up these regiments came from forest ranger, logging, and sawmill jobs throughout the U.S., and served their country in France by providing work crucial to the eventual success of the Allied forces in Europe. This project uses primary source materials and historical essays from various collections to provide information on the 10th and 20th Engineers during World War I. Included are an overview of their mobilization and work, a special 1919 issue of American Forestry magazine dedicated to the forestry engineers, personal accounts and experiences of members of the forestry regiments, information on recruitment efforts, deployment and service, and the sinking of the Tuscania, as well as featured photographs and images, a timeline of events, and suggestions for further research."
