AMERICAN CEMETARY NEAR BOURESCHES.
In the background: the highest part of Belleau Wood.
Pass through the village, leave the church on the left, and take on the left the road leading to Bouresches. About 200 yards from the village there are more American graves.
On the left of the road the southern edge of Belleau Wood is visible.
Shortly before arriving at Bouresches are more American graves on the left (photo above).
From here the tourist may cross the fields to the wood where there is a path leading to Hill 181, its highest point. Numerous trenches, shelters, etc., will be found there. In April, 1919, corpses were still lying on the ground (photo, p. 53).
Enter Bouresches. Turn to the right in front of the Church, towards Vaux.
