Re: Don\'t come home until u is sobern! (NC Thread)
Feeling a bit under the weather today, so I might get under the covers early tonight.
The answer to my poll earlier is 80,000. (I voted "Bastard....." to avoid giving the answer away and to keep the trend of almost always voting Bastard).
The "last straw" that made US join in the fun of WWI was a message from Germany to Mexico and Japan promising them large parts of US territory if they would join them against the US. US may very well have joined anyway, but perhaps not so fast if that message had not been intercepted.
The 80,000 is the reason it took US rather long to send over troops to Europe, they simply hadn't anybody to send, they needed to send millions through bootcamp first.
