April 6, 1917.

War against Germany was declared in both the Senate and House of Representatives by votes of 82-6 and 373-50, respectively.

President Woodrow Wilson had called for the declaration of war four days earlier.

The U.S. had been preparing for war since the passage of a $250 million arms appropriations bill in Feb.

The first U.S. troops landed in France in late June.

The arrival of fresh and well-supplied forces proved to be a turning point in the war after four years of bloody combat
