Taken in June 1917, this image showcases the early morning scene at the dock as these brave GIs disembark from their ship. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as a crowd gathers to witness this historic event. The exterior of the maritime vessel stands tall behind them, symbolizing both hope and uncertainty for what lies ahead. Each soldier carries with them a sense of duty and patriotism, ready to contribute their part to the war effort. The French landscape provides a picturesque backdrop for this poignant moment.
