The Center of Military History is pleased to join the Training and Doctrine Command in reprinting General William W. Hartzog's American Military Heritage. General Hartzog originally wrote this book almost thirty years ago, while he was an instructor at West Point. In 1998, TRADOC republished it to provide a reference that could help drill instructors and other Army leaders instill an appreciation for the lore and traditions that make up the Army's rich heritage. "American Military Heritage" has been so well received that TRADOC has agreed to reprint it in cooperation with the Center to make it available to the Army as a whole. The reappearance of this volume is particularly appropriate this year, as the Army celebrates its 225th birthday. "American Military Heritage" is not official history, per se. It differs from the lengthy, detailed, heavily documented official volumes that the Center publishes on generally more specific subjects. "American Military Heritage" does present, in a readable and attractive format, stories, individual experiences, and traditions from which the Army has drawn inspiration over its long and proud history. In these pages, you can readily learn about such formative Army experiences as Bunker Hill, Gettysburg, and D-Day; about such prominent Army heroes as George Washington, Elijah Churchill, Ulysses S. Grant, William H. Carney, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and Audie Murphy; and about numerous details concerning Army daily life, uniforms, and equipment. We treasure our Army's heritage as we prepare to meet the challenges of the twenty-first century. We trust that you will find this book helpful in your work and that it will be a source of pride and inspiration as we march into the future of our Army and our nation.
