    from wikipedia:
    On 16 September 1917, Company M (sans Officers) of the 3rd Regiment, Kentucky Infantry was designated the 113th Engineer Battalion and assigned to the 38th Infantry Division.
    [1]
    Training began in October 1917, and continued for the next ten months. The 113th arrived in France with the rest of the 38th ID in September–October 1918, during the height of the German "Peace Offensives." While most of the 38th ID was stripped down to serve as replacements for units already in combat, the 113th Engineers assisted in constructing bases and infrastructure for the American Expeditionary Forces
