DUN-SUR-MEUSE. BRIDGE ACROSS THE MEUSE DESTROYED BY THE GERMANS
Cléry-le-Petit was slightly damaged. On November 4, 1918, the Americans reached the Meuse between Brieulles and Villefranche. On September 5, they crossed the river at Brieulles and Cléry, on foot-bridges built by the American engineers, in spite of the stubborn resistance of the Germans established on the right bank. It was the American 5th Division which first effected the crossing of the river and established solid bridgeheads at Cléry and Brieulles, which resisted every attack. Keep straight on, leaving the church on the right, and the Cléry-le-Grand road on the left. After crossing the little River Andon, Dun-sur-Meuse on the top of the opposite hill comes into view. The G.C. 2 bis near Doulcon is reached, which take to the right as far as Dun-sur-Meuse (3 km. from Cléry-le-Petit).
