Explanation:

John J. Pershing was the commander of the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF) during World War I. His role in leading the AEF was crucial as it helped shape the course of the war. The Fourteen Points were authored by Woodrow Wilson. Pershing was a graduate of the U.S. Military Academy (West Point), not the Naval Academy. The attempt to capture Pancho Villa (the Pancho Villa Expedition) was a military operation, but his most significant and lasting role was as the AEF commander.

commander of the American Expeditionary Forces
