This image, numbered 111-SC-34726, shows Pvt. Gibbon from South Carolina during World War One. The photograph was taken by Eco on January 20, 1919. The scene captures a hilltop in the Bois de Bouzon, Meuse, France, located 2 kilometers southwest of Montblainville. It showcases the Argonne Road, along with big gun emplacements and a gun. The American advance was so rapid that the Germans had to abandon and destroy this particular gun. The photograph was released by the AF Censor but does not have a specified date.
