Chateau Thierry Rebuilt After War Tides
Ten years after Allied battles in the Marne salient, Chateau Thierry shows few war scars. The Seventh Machinegun Battalion’s trees, the ruined Town Hall, and the river bridge have been restored. A monument to the Third Division stands on the main street near where Lieutenant Bissell and his men were cut off during the escape. Local life resumes as old women wash by the Marne and anglers fish along placid waters.
