About This Book
"Following World War II, Robert S. Beightler was one of only two U.S. National Guard generals to be commissioned in the regular Army. Ohl's study traces Beightler's military career from his 1911 enlistment as a private in the Ohio National Guard through his rise to major general and appointment and tenure as commander of the Army's 37th Division during World War II.".
"Beightler's service in France during World War I and his successful leadership of the 37th in WWII's New Georgia, Bougainville, and Luzon campaigns are portrayed against the often rocky relationship between the Guard and the regular military establishment."--BOOK JACKET.
