摘要：

For Puerto Ricans, World War I provided the opportunity to test and challenge the linkages between military service, manhood, citizenship and decolonization. During the war, Puerto Rican political leaders, elected officials and opinion makers sought to advance the socioeconomic and political standing of their communities by demanding access to, and encouraging participation in the US military. In particular, Puerto Rican elites were interested in mobilizing the Puerto Rican peasantry, reasoning that training would transform them into modern men worthy of self-determination in the eyes of the metropolis.
