"WHATEVER A MAN SOWETH, THAT SHALL HE ALSO REAP." America had a policy of isolationism prior to entering the war and in many ways was not prepared for a world war.
Although many had idealistic visions at the beginning of the war, they soon learned about the death and destruction that was going on in Europe.
There were not enough volunteers to supply the amount of men needed for the military. Many men waited to see if they would be drafted, rather than enlisting.
