France - Bayonet Trench
Memorial - 1 |

|
 |
The
"Bayonet Trench" Memorial marks the location where some
dozen bayonets lined up in a row were discovered projecting out
of the ground after World War I. Under each rifle the body of a
French soldier was discovered. These soldiers were most likely
resting their rifles against the parapet of the trench they were
occupying when they were killed during a bombardment. The
soldiers were buried where they were found in the trench - and
the rifles were left untouched.
