In late 1918, my father who had just turned 18, had been drafted and was riding a train on his way to Fort Benning, Georgia, to be inducted into the Army, on Nov. 11, 1918.
When he, and the other draftees arrived, they were told that the war was over and they were no longer needed in the Army. They remained at Fort Benning for a couple of days and were then released to go home. (I believe that at that time Benning was called "Camp Benning," and shortly thereafter was designated as a "fort." ???)
