| Summary |
"The War Record of the Fifth Company, New England Regiment, Second Plattsburg" is a historical account published in the early 20th century. This work serves as a detailed record for the former members of the Fifth Company, offering insights into their military experiences during World War I. The text is likely to appeal to readers interested in military history, particularly those looking to understand the lives and sacrifices of soldiers from this specific regiment. The opening of this record contains a transcriber’s note and a foreword that expresses the hopes of the Fifth Company Records Committee that the document serves as a valuable remembrance for past members and their experiences during their service. It lays out a series of detailed entries that enumerate instructors and former candidates of the company, providing background on their military careers, assignments during the war, and what became of them after the war, including notable achievements and, in some cases, details of their death in action. This portion sets the tone for a comprehensive and poignant commemoration of those who served, reflecting both individual and collective narratives of courage and valor.
