WW1 US Forces Belleau Wood Memorial Tour

€1360.00

Sometimes, visitors believe the U.S. suffered more casualties in World War II than World War I—an impression that overlooks the devastating toll of the Spanish flu and the sheer brutality of 1918. When American troops landed, the Allied front was on the verge of collapse. Under General Pershing, nearly two million doughboys crossed the Atlantic in an unprecedented logistical effort. At Bois Belleau, American soldiers faced fierce, relentless combat of unimaginable intensity. Charging through heavily fortified woods against relentless machine-gun fire, they suffered staggering casualties. Yet, through extraordinary valor and overwhelming human sacrifice, they secured a decisive strategic victory that turned the tide of the war and established the terrifying, legendary reputation of the U.S. military. Through personal stories and the big picture, our tour honors these heroes, recounting their tragic sacrifice and celebrating the triumphant victory that reshaped world history."
