The English soldiers have been known to go into action kicking a soccer ball; Pershing may now desire to follow their example. The lieutenants may soon be equipped with footballs and in true Mahan style rush over the top, followed by their platoons. War is a constantly changing game and such a formation might terrorize the most terrible Touton. A little scrimmage in No Man's Land between barrages would also serve as a diversion to the worn-out doughboy...
