America was fighting on the same side as Britain, but didn't join the war until 1917, by which time it had already been going on for three years. However, many Americans joined the war as volunteers before America entered the war officially, as pilots for instance. And 25,000 American women came to Europe to volunteer as nurses, canteen hostesses, ambulance drivers and switchboard operators.
