Oooooo, lucky you. I would love to tour the battlefields.
Don’t have much desire to do world traveling but to be
there on the anniversery of the opening and the Battle
of the Frontiers, Loos, Le cateau and the Marne would
be most interesting.

Did you visit Ft Doamont or Vaux?
I’m envious.

I spent an entire day at the battlefield. I went into Ft. Doaumount(spelling?)I saw every part of the Fort that one could see. The saddest of all was the remains of the village of Fleury, like a giant fist smashed it.
