WWI pitted 19th Century tactics against 20th Century weapons, with large-scale horrific results. The American Legion commemorates the 100-year anniversary of the conclusion to the "War to End All Wars," with a small but impactful exhibit in their corner of the War Memorial Building. No tickets, no reservations, no charge. Lest we forget.

The small casket atop this memorial holds soil from each of the four French cemeteries that became the final resting place for America's fallen during WWI.

It's open. It's free. It's American, and world, history.
