"Germans blew up the road at this point, making it difficult to move straight up the cliff. The area was heavily bombarded, leaving the trees stripped and shell craters scattered across the landscape. The photograph shows 2nd Lieut. Carl C. Mayhew inspecting the damaged road. Varennes-de-Four-de-Paris-Road, Meuse, France, November 4, 1918."
