On America’s entrance into WWI, Major Raborg was immediately sent to France for duty with the French and British Armies. He later served as a machine gun officer in frontline operations with three American divisions. For his service he was awarded eight medals and decorations from the U.S. and France.
Prior to WWII, he traveled widely and continued his extensive studies of the latest developments in strategy and weapons of modern warfare. When the Nazis overran Poland, Major Raborg was immediately consulted as one of the foremost authorities on military affairs.
