Probably the best known was Joyce Kilmer ("Trees"). Kilmer was killed in the war. There is a National Forest Wilderness area named for him in western North Carolina.
Unfortunately there is no one called Owen sassoon. There are two different poets called Wilfred OWEN and Siegfried SASSOON. These poets fought in world war 1 and wrote poems about the war.

World War I was the first war that blacks fought side by side with whites in full integrated units. They also fought together in World War II.
One of the differences between World war one and the American civil war was in terms of technology. The weapons used in World War One were more technologically advanced than the weapons used in the American Civil War. For example, the World War One was fought with machine guns, poison gas, tanks, planes and barbed wire, although barbed wire was not new it was still the first time it was used in a war, while the American Civil War was fought with rifles and bayonets. Another difference is the reason behind the war. World War One was fought because the next in line for Austria-Hungary's throne was killed and the allies of Austria-Hungary and Serbia all helped out so a small war turned into a World War. The American Civil War was very different, it was fought over the rights to have slaves.
World War II was called the War of Attrition because by its definition it required that it was fought defensively meaning not fought on American soil. This means that there was little damage to the US.
