520			_a"Army Boys in France; or, From Training Camp to Trenches" by Homer Randall is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a group of young American men, particularly focusing on Frank Sheldon and his friends, as they respond to the call of duty as the United States enters World War I. The narrative explores their experiences from the initial realization of war's inevitability to their enlistment and the emotional tension surrounding their families. The opening of the novel portrays Frank Sheldon and his friends engaged in lively conversation about the brewing war while at their workplace in a hardware store. As they grapple with their thoughts and feelings about the likelihood of entering combat, Frank emerges as a determined character, eager to serve his country. His interaction with both supportive friends and antagonistic figures, particularly a German foreman named Nick Rabig, hints at the broader societal tensions of the time. The poignant exchange between Frank and his mother reveals the personal stakes of war, setting the tone for their impending departure to serve in a conflict that promises bravery, sacrifice, and a newfound sense of identity.
