WHAT OTHERS THOUGHT OF US ++++++++++++++++++ 180th INFANTRY BRIGADE AMERICAN EXPEDITIONARY FORCES 8th November, 1918 From: C.G. 180 Inf. Brigade. To: C.G. 155th Artillery Brigade. Subject: Operations of November 1st and 2nd 1. I desire to thank you most heartily for the very excellent support rendered by your Brigade to this Brigade during the successful operations of November 1st and 2nd. 2. As far as I could see the liaison between the Infantry and Artillery was as nearly perfect as it could be made. Cooperation was at all times freely offered and easily secured. Responses to calls for artillery fire were prompt and effective. I feel that to a very great extent the success obtained by the Brigade was due to the efficient support rendered by your Brigade. 3. In the name of the officers and enlisted men of the 150th Infantry Brigade, I thank you. (Signed) U.G. McAlexander, Brigadier General, U.S.A. ________________________________________________ HEADQUARTERS NINETEENTH DIVISION AMERICAN EXPEDITIONARY FORCES 14th November, 1918 From: Commanding General. To: Commanding General, 155th Field Artillery Brigade. Subject: Services with 90th Division. 1. I desire to make permanent record the exceptionally valuable services of your brigade in the carrying of the FREYA STELLUNG from ADEVANNE through VILLERS-DEVANT-DUN to the MEUSE River, and subsequently in the crossing of the River and taking of the STENAY- BAALON line including both towns. 2. The bold, aggressive and effective work of the 155th Brigade throughout this period, and its deep barrage of November 1st, made the infantry work against two enemy Shock Divisions, 28th and 27th, especially detailed to hold that position, possible with a minimum of losses. 3. It gives me very great pleasure to express the sincerest thanks of the 90th Division for the essential support rendered it by the 155th Brigade. Much of this fine work was due to the late Colonel Robert S. Welsh, who commanded during the earlier days of this period. (Signed) Henry T. Allen, Major General (Typed by DELORES KNOWLES.)
