Sorry, we couldn't find anything matching "The title was anticipated in four compositions issued in 1918: “American Crusaders March,” published and copyrighted by the author, Will Wood, on July 15; “America’s Crusaders,” a part-song written by Charles Fonteyn Manning and copyrighted by Oliver Ditson on August 16; “Pershing’s Crusaders,” composed and published by E. T. Paull, copyright October 9; and “Uncle Sam’s Crusaders,” music by Fay Foster, words by Owen F. Conlon, copyrighted December 16.
