When the United States entered World War One, it was short of everything except patriotism. In particular, the U.S. Army even lacked enough rifles to equip its rapidly growing ranks, so the older Krag rifles were pressed into use as trainers. This situation led me to wonder if any Krags ever saw limited frontline service with U.S. forces in France. I know that the '03 Springfield and 1917 Enfield rifles were the mainstay combat arms for American troops in that war, but I wonder if the Krags somehow saw use as well. Perhaps some of our senior members may know. Thanks in advance.
