Iowa Draftees in the 117th Infantry Regiment

Iowa Draftees in the 117th Infantry Regiment

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I am trying to find information on the 117th Infantry Regiment and its members.

The regiment was a National Guard unit from Tennessee but it was brought up to full strength with 500 draftees from Iowa prior to its deployment. I am looking for letters, diaries, journals, reminiscences, military correspondence and documents, newspaper articles, and family stories about the 117th Infantry Regiment for World War I.

I appreciate any assistance you can provide. Please let me know if you have questions.

V/R
