Versailles 31.7.1918

WANTED!

In homage to the 100th Anniversary of the First World War, I am seeking to identify and record the names and histories of the eighty soldiers and three civilians in my grandfather’s small treasured photograph taken at Versailles, Paris on July 31st 1918. Like my grandfather, many of these men were likely wounded, or worse, were killed or went missing during the needless fighting of the last one hundred days of the war which ended with the armistice of November 11th, 1918. Please contact me if you recognize anyone in the photo or have any information relevant to my search.
