You'd think that leading the 10th Cavalry "Buffalo Soldiers" during the Spanish American War and then chasing Mexican guerilla fighter Pancho Villa would be enough of a career for most, but not this general. Which general was given the massive task of leading the American armies in France during WWI?
Answer John Pershing
Pershing had the unenviable task of transforming the American Army from a small force into a gigantic, industrialized, behemoth that would be able to slug it out in the trenches of WWI France. He performed admirably.
