We have had some folks ask, so we have delivered. Guests on this impromptu episode are Robert J. Laplander and Alexander Curran.    This is an unfiltered recap of our recent trip to France! While there we conducted a field recon for the Doughboy MIA project that made some wonderful and important friendships for us. Our newest team member, Alex, discusses a Doughboy MIA case that is very close to him personally.   Also discussed is the amazing opportunity to walk a 103-year-old diary written by a member of the Lost Battalion saga back through the very Argonne Forest where its pages were first filled. This was an unforgettable day that saw several World War One enthusiasts come together for a poignant walk through history-laden woods.    Come join our discussion and relive some of our best moments. Don’t forget – you can join us and experience the same ground with Lost Battalion Tours.    To support Doughboy MIA’s “Ten for Them” program, click on the following link:   https://www.worldwar1centennial.org/doughboy-mia-home.html   To stay up to date with Lost Battalion Tours, click here:   https://www.facebook.com/lostbattaliontours   The BFWWP is now on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BattlesoftheFirstWorldWarPodcast.    Any questions, comments or concerns please contact me through the website, www.firstworldwarpodcast.com or the Battles of the First World War Podcast page on FaceBook.
