Why would any World War 2 U S Army 1ST SGT who received a CROIX DE GUERRE avec PALME from FRANCE to date be lost in U S history?
A World War II U.S. Army First Sergeant who received the Croix de Guerre avec Palme from France might be lost to history due to several factors, including the sheer number of service members who fought in the war, overshadowing individual stories. Additionally, many records may have been lost or not adequately preserved, making it difficult for historians to track and document specific contributions. The focus on high-ranking officers or well-known battles often leads to the omission of lower-ranking soldiers who played critical roles in their units. Lastly, societal factors, such as the lack of recognition for certain service members based on race or background, may also contribute to their obscurity in historical narratives.

How did the German U boat change the rules of naval warfare?
Weak naval powers, such as Germany during both world wars, had to revert to "Commerce Raiding" (Guerre de Course) as they did not have a powerful enough surface navy to challenge their enemies on the high seas. Thus their submarines fought primarily merchant warfare; and not fleet actions (Guerre de Escadre).
