The Stars and Stripes was published in France by the United States Army from February 8, 1918, to June 13, 1919. General John J. Pershing wanted a newspaper written by servicemen for the soldiers on the battlefront. The newspaper's mission was to strengthen the morale of the troops and to promote unity within the American forces. The venture was immediately popular with the soldiers, quickly selling out its first issue of one thousand copies.
