Returning guest and University of Oklahoma PhD candidate James P. Gregory tackles the subject of the US 5th Marine Regiment on Blanc Mont on October 4th, 1918, a day that would see the highest casualties ever taken by the Marines until World War Two a generation later. James argues that events and leadership led to “a calamity of errors” with deadly results for the Marines on the ground.
