DescriptionSeptember 14, 1918"This was a difficult but very interesting trip up over the hill thro the Bois de Mort Mare. Here the German trenches and positions were literally torn to pieces by our shells. And it was necessary to entirely rebuild the roads. Great gangs of colored trpps were at work with this, along with the Pioneers." pg. 95
