Teachers Whiskey During World War One, Was Whiskey/bourbon A Common Beverage Among The Soldiers?

During world war one, was whiskey/bourbon a common beverage among the soldiers? - teachers whiskey

HELP PLEASE! This is a bet with my teacher of social studies. On a piece of the Word Vocabulary bourbon. I wrote "an alcoholic beverage. She said he was referring to the French royal family of Bourbon. But he said if he could find a source who said he drank bourbon in the trenches, or among the soldiers, they gave me the credit and say he was wrong before the whole school. So please, if you know how to answer the position order, with a reliable source. THANK YOU!

A true story ....
69. New York Infantry Regiment (nicknamed the battle 69a) fought in France during the First World War.
The unit was staffed by volunteers mainly Irish in New York.
Was after a particularly heavy charge on the enemy positions, there are hundreds of people from the unit were killed, the commander of the 69th Battalion (Bill Donovan) has decided to offer no dead comrades in arms.
Can find a bottle of champagne to the health, mix half a bottle of champagne and half a bottle of whiskey (unknown type) in a silver dish found.
Each surviving member of the canteen of the fire unit in the bowl and a toast to the unit!
