(Early Life)
John J Pershing was the first of eight children born to John F. Pershing and Anne Elizabeth Thompson Pershing of Laclede, MO. John's father was a prosperous businessman, working as a merchant during the Civil War and later owning a general store in Laclede and serving as postmaster. The family lost most of its assets during the panic of 1873, and John's father was forced to take a job as a traveling salesman while John worked on the family farm. After high school graduation, John J. Pershing took a job teaching African American students at Prairie Mound School. He saved his money and then went to Missouri Norman School for two years. Though he grew up in an era of Civil War heroes, young John had no desire for a military career, bur when an invitation to take the exam for the U.S. Military Academy at West Point came his way, he applied and received the top grade. Though not a great student he was elected class president, and his superiors noticed his leadership qualities. ]]> 2019-05-19 19:22:59 UTC https://padlet.com/keshawnmom/zaghdl6pxh6m/wish/361529840 keshawnmom https://padlet.com/keshawnmom/zaghdl6pxh6m/wish/361537693 2019-05-19 20:25:21 UTC https://padlet.com/keshawnmom/zaghdl6pxh6m/wish/361537693 keshawnmom https://padlet.com/keshawnmom/zaghdl6pxh6m/wish/361538075 Unfortunately, he lost his wife and 3 daughters to a house fire in 1915, while away on an assignment.

His reliance on costly frontal assaults, long after other Allied armies had abandoned such tactics, has been blamed for causing unnecessarily high American casualties. ]]> 2019-05-19 21:48:36 UTC https://padlet.com/keshawnmom/zaghdl6pxh6m/wish/361547051 keshawnmom https://padlet.com/keshawnmom/zaghdl6pxh6m/wish/361547790 Why We Need To Know What Still Makes Him Relevant Today?
Out of all of his numerous military campaigns, Genera Pershing's leadership of the American Expeditionary Forces in World War I was his greatest accomplishment. The introduction of the AEF troops helped end World War I, and without the American soldiers, the European allies would have faced an uncertain outcome. Many can take notes from Pershing,on what could work and may not be a good idea. ]]> 2019-05-19 21:56:58 UTC https://padlet.com/keshawnmom/zaghdl6pxh6m/wish/361547790 keshawnmom https://padlet.com/keshawnmom/zaghdl6pxh6m/wish/361552881 Palmer, Frederick.
