In this latest Battlefield Vlog we explore the battlefields of the American Expeditionary Force (AEF) in the Meuse-Argonne Offensive of September 1918. Our journey takes us from Varennes and the Pennsylvania Memorial, to the high point of Montfaucon and the small bitterly contested village of Cunel. This was one of the bloodiest American engagements of the Twentieth Century and we examine the history and what it means to America today.

  1. Nice Vlog there, Paul! Remembering that I spent hours up at this memorial and the surroundings last summer, in July 2023. A really interesting terrain indeed, and this is one of many places that I will take my Swedish tour to, in April 2025.

    Thanks, Paul!

  2. Great episode. My uncle served in this sector with Company L, 318th Infantry Regiment, 80th Division. I never knew him, as he died two years before I was born, but having been told he served in WWI, I began researching…

    Thanks again!!
