I will use this thread to post images taken while in France.
I am using a newer laptop. Let me know if the picture quality is bad.
Please note that many of the images lead to a zoomable link, click on the image to check them out.
WWII
In May/June 1940 the 7th French division was decimated by the Nazi. This is not to be confused with the 7th Panzer Division (Wehrmacht) that was in the area, led by Rommel. After the campaign of France, it was sent to the Soviet Union.
This area was also a WWI battlefield as well as in the 1870s (
Franco-Prussian War).
Detail
These war memorials pay due homage to the war dead of yesteryear. I salute them now while at my keyboard.
