Proud to have visited all 5 sites. Awesome and so moving at the same time. Great work Battle Guides. Cantigny is also interesting as well as sites associated with Sgt Alvin York and also the Lost Battalion.
Awesome! My grandfather, part of the 3rd m.g. bttn, was wounded at Cantigny May 29, 1918. One day we hope to visit the places you suggested and Cantigny as well.
Excellent and moving video, especially the last site of the cemetery of thousands and thousands of (mostly) young men, who died because of the stupidity and greed of rulers seeking to aggrandize themselves. So utterly tragic and futile.
Great tribute to the men and the ABMC's amazing work. My great uncle was a Marine at BW. Another beauty is the Blanc Mont monument at Somme Py and Navarin Farm.
My grandfather was fighting in the are he was mustard gassed the day before that famous photograph by the bridge he had a weeping scar the size of a tennis ballon his forehead for all his life up till his death in 1984
No Hamel? Suppose that’s because two thirds of the Americans did a runner just before going over the top, rather than being a part of the first successful combined arms victory of WWI. Pershing later accepted battle honours from the French for the victory and shunned the Australians who were in command of the Americans, what a lying coward he was.
What do you mean incorrectly the source of Marines being called Devil Dogs? Can you tell me what the correct source is then? Because that is what I was taught in Marine Corps boot camp about Marine Corps history.
My Grand Father fought at Bellicourt Tunnel with the Old Hickory 30th Infantry. He brought back his helmet which I now have in safe keeping.
This is very moving. Thank you from the US for helping us learn our own history.

Another thing to add to my bucket list! From the US, thanks for sharing this!

It will be well worth the effort!

The 234 steps at montfaucon are no joke but the view from the top is amazing!
Nice, both of my grandparents were in the 79th Inf division, and at Monfaucon. Great to visit 👍
I hadn't heard of most of these locales, and do hope to visit them one day!
This was fantastic I thoroughly enjoyed it
Thank you.
I really enjoyed the Saint Mihiel area as well. My favorite cemetery was probably the one there in Thiaucourt.
Great choice!

The photo is of the 137th Brigade. No idea what it’s doing in an American battlefield history.
Moving & informative video, well done & thank you! 🙏🙏
Great video! I want to visit Europe again and I would like to visit the sites you mentioned. I also need to check out your website.
Awesome and very informative video. Why does the youtube algorithm gods bury such admirable efforts...
It seems to be a bit of a mystery, but thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it!

Great video!!!
Incredible and humbling for those that gave the ultimate sacrifice
thanks very much learned a bit here
Great little video. Cheers.
Glad you enjoyed it
Seeing all those white crosses is really humbling. God bless the fallen.
I've been to 3 on this list.

Excellent video.
Thank you very much!
Nothing for Hamel?
Not this time, reltatively little US involvement and we felt the others were better visits.
Ummmmmm you missed their particpiation in the actions at Le Hamel in 1918 under General Monash.
Yes, and probably 20 other actions too
Just curious but are there monuments and graves for the German soldiers?
Yes there are some, and quite a few cemeteries.
Ask the Germans.
Many needlessly killed in frontal attacks .Man vs.machine gun .Advantage machine gun
More maps
48 states of the US
As an American, don't expect us to do it again. We've given enough.
When the French hear about the 100k losses of the Americans 😂😂😂 come back when you REALLY suffered.
Amazing. Can't believe you don't have more likes. It's an insult and disgrace.
There were not 50 states in the period of WW1.
True. I'm nearly sure both Alaska and Hawaii had troops in the service though.
Good Job
Military dentists seem to really know how to go balls to wall when the need arises…
😂
Fantastic.
Great info .
Could you do the same type of documentary for other allied nation's battlefields tour ?
