    ESTABLISHING THE AMERICAN WAY OF DEATH: WORLD WAR I AND THE FOUNDATION OF THE UNITED STATES’ POLICY TOWARD THE REPATRIATION AND BURIAL OF ITS BATTLEFIELD DEAD Kyle J. Hatzinger, B.S. Thesis Prepared for Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2015 APPROVED: Geoffrey D.W. Wawro, Major Professor Michael V. Leggiere, Committee Member Richard B. McCaslin, Committee Member and Chair of the Department of History Costas Tsatsoulis, Interim Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Hatzinger, Kyle J. Establishing the American Way of Death: World War I and the Foundation of the United States' Policy Toward the Repatriation and Burial of Its Battlefield Dead. Master of Arts (History), August 2015, 158 pp., bibliography, 63 titles. This thesis examines the policies and procedures created during and after the First World War that provided the foundation for how the United States commemorated its war dead for the next century. Many of the techniques used in modern times date back to the Great War. However, one hundred years earlier, America possessed very few methods or even ideas about how to locate, identify, repatriate, and honor its military personnel that died during foreign conflicts. These ideas were not conceived in the halls of government buildings. On the contrary, concerned citizens originated many of the concepts later codified by the American government. This paper draws extensively upon archival documents, newspapers, and published primary sources to trace the history of America’s burial and repatriation policies, the Army Graves Registration Services, and how American dead came to permanently rest in military cemeteries on the continent of Europe.
