The following appeared on 28 October 1920 in The Columbus Ledger: A Columbus Boy's Distinguished Military Service. Hundreds of Columbus people recall him pleasantly-- plain Will Mitchell then now Colonel William A. Mitchell of the United States army. It was only natural that the young man's thoughts should turn toward a military career as his older brother Colonel Americus Mitchell was then an officer in the United States army. A local sponsor became greatly interested in him and was of substantial assistance in obtaining his appointment to the West Point Military Academy from the Fourth Georgia district. His army record subsequently was one of steady advancement. During the world War Colonel Mitchell organized the 20th Engineers a forestry regiment containing about 27000 men and shipped it to Europe going over himself with the last detachment of the regiment. This was perhaps the largest regiment ever organized. Shortly after he reached France Colonel Mitchell was placed in command of the 2nd Engineers this regiment constituting the Engineer regiment of the 2nd Division. He served with this regiment from Chateau Thierry to the armistice and later on became corps engineer of the 8th corps. Those familiar with world-war history of course know of the famous Second Division and his regiment constituted one of the most efficient parts of this great division. For his services he was awarded several medals by the French one of them the second highest honor given by the French government and the distinguished service medal by the United States. Colonel Mitchell then became an instructor at Fort Leavenworth. United States Army, Second Regiment of Engineers hardcover
