LEGION MEN VISIT FRANCE
American Party on Tour Of Former
Battle Sectors; at Fllrey Monu-
ment Dedication.

The new "A. e. f." is In France
on a mission much unlike that Of the
A. E. f. Of 1917-1918. The new forces
are only $50 strong. They comprise
members Of the American Legion who
are touring the former battle sectors
this summer as guests of the French
government.
Every state and every branch OF
service Is represented in the peaceful
new A. q. F. They sailed from New
York on the George Washington.
There was q noisy bon voyage at the
docks as the former presidential ship
started on Its curse. Flags Of the
United States and the American Le-
gion few from the mast.
Commanding or rather heading the
pilgrimage was John g. Emery, the
Legion's national commander. For
mer commanders Franklin D'Olier and
Henry D. Lindsey were present.
Arriving at LeKavre. the citizen ex-
petition was received with great eclat,
after which 1t proceeded to Paris IN
der tow Of French officials. From
Paris the party set out by special train
for Blois to attend the dedication OF
the Joan Of Arc statue presented to
the French city by the Joan of Arc
Committee Of New York.
While at Blois, the veterans invaded
the old headquarters Of the army re-
classification board, known better by
the doughboy as the "benzine board"
Here the Americans staged a burlesque
Of q benzine hearing during which a
score of the pilgrims were "~blooyed'
as they used to say In the days OF the
fighting A. e. F.
Every city visited by the former de-
tenders has received them with arms
wide-open. That France has not for
gotten is everywhere evidenced by the
cordially Of the receptions. At Bor.
deaux, the Legionnaires received the
freedom Of the city" from the high
officials. From there they went to
Tarbes to visit the birthplace Of Gen.
eral Foch. They placed a memorial
tablet upon the house that first shell
tered the famous generalissimo.
The former fighters were impressed
by the rapidity with which many Of
the ruined towns have been rebuilt
Some Legionnaires have gone over the
exact location where they fought the
battle Of liberty and where many Of
their buddies fell in action.
Probably the most impressive Ger
emory participated in by the Ameri
cans was the dedication Of the Flirey
monument. This memorial Is a tribute
to the valor OF the doughboys who
delivered the little town Of German
occupation. Flirey is familiar ground
to many American soldiers. 1t is or
the ridge which was the main line
Of resistance Of the old Toul sector.
1t was at Flirey that the Eighty
ninth, from Kansas and Missouri, went
into conflict. Seventeen American
divisions fought In the vicinity OF th'
little town, which itself was occupied
by regimental headquarters Of troops
holding the line.
At the close Of their TOUR the Legion
men will 60 to Paris where they will
have three days A. w. O. L, afte
which they will sail on their return
voyage. The party is expected to re
turn about September 10.
