Avenging Rheims, Liége, and Lille,
And outraged gods and creeds.
“There lies the road from Avocourt
That leads to Montfaucon,
Past sniper and machine gun nest,
By steel and thermite cleansed. They’ve gone—
And there in thund’rous echelon
The ruined heights of Montfaucon.”
Harold Riezelman, 1st Lt., C.W.S.
