Subject: [LRflex] IMG: WWI celebrations in rural France
As you may know, I now live in a small village in Alsace. This area was German
in 1914, and turned French in 1918 as it was before 1870 ...
Local people there were then forced to join the German troops, or flee, and get
enrolled on the French side only to fight their brothers or cousins …
The 360 souls village lost 37 young men between 1914 and 1918.
Yesterday was the 100th anniversary of the end of that war, and I witnessed the
local celebrations and hommage.
No, it did NOT rain ...
