In 1918, the world had been at war for almost 4 years, but it was not until April of 1917 that the United States entered the war. Mobilization took time and the training of troops began. In March of 1918, in an Army training camp, reports of the Flu began to emerge. It spread throughout the Army camps rapidly. As the soldiers were shipped out to Europe, they carried the virus with them and soon it engulfed Europe. The first phase of the Flu diminished in the Summer.
