The Prudential Center was one of seven Regional Home Offices (RHOs) planned by Prudential in the 1950s to decentralize its management. What began as an effort to reinvigorate the company’s bureaucratic makeup evolved into a prominent building program and urban planning phenomenon, promoting the economic prospects of each RHO city and reshaping the geography of the business district.

The material presented in this volume has been ob- tained from many sources and the publisher wishes to acknowledge his gratitude to the men who unselfishly turned over photographs and other material for the bene- fit of this book. If the pictorial record of the Regiment seems in- complete or if inaccuracies have crept in the apologies of the publisher are offered and the fact that the former members of the Regiment are scattered in all parts of the country making it impossible to secure exact details submitted as the reason.

MY FELLOW SOLDIERS: Now that your service with the American Expeditionary Forces is about to ter- minate, I can not let you go without a personal word. At the call to arms, the patriotic young manhood of America eagerly responded and became the formidable army whose decisive victories testify to its efficiency and its valor. With the sup- port of the nation firmly united to defend the cause of liberty, our army has executed the will of the people with resolute purpose.
