in OTL John Pershing caught Malaria, probably in Cuba while surving in the Spanish-Merican war, and survived.
But let's say he didn't, and died March 1899.
How would this affect the Phillipine-American war and the USA's entrence into WWI?
any ideas?
(not sure if it belongs here, because the POD is before 1900, but the events it may effect are after)
