Biographical History

Army officer, military engineer, and diplomat.

A graduate of West Point and the U.S. Engineer School, Judson's career with the Army Corps of Engineers included working on river, harbor, and canal improvements in Chicago and the Great Lakes region, Puerto Rico, N.Y., and Texas, consulting on the Panama Canal, and serving as engineer commissioner for the District of Columbia. Judson's military and diplomatic posts included military attaché to the Russian army during the Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905), duty with the Root Mission to Russia (1917), brigadier-general assigned to duty as chief of the American embassy in Petrograd (1917-Jan. 1918), and command of the New York Port of Embarkation (until being stricken during the influenza epidemic).
