When America Invaded Russia : an American in Vladivostok, 1919 : a diary / by Alpha H. Fleming
























I transcribed this unique diary in the McCleary Museum by painstakingly banging out it letter by letter on my old typewriter in 1990. I tried to follow the original as closely as I could. Not sure how many of these I published.

A very interesting primary document and soldier's narrative of the Allied occupation of the Soviet Union, specifically from a member of the American Expeditionary Forces.

OK, so I'm posting this bit of history on a blog primarily devoted to obscuro comix. Just one of the many ways we try to be eclectic here on Morty the Blog.
