Come to the First Division Museum at Cantigny for an evening with author and historian  James Carl Nelson as he speaks on his recently released book, The Remains of Company D: A Story of the Great War. A book signing will follow.

The Remains of Company D follows the experiences of a small group of soldiers from Company D, 28th Infantry Regiment, First Infantry Division as they fight through the battles of Cantigny, Soissons, St. Mihiel, and the Meuse-Argonne. This small-unit account brings these battles into perspective from the eyes of these men and also complements the American War effort as a whole during World War I.
