Summary
Hey Folks, this episode is a recap of the 2022 Lost Battalion Tours Meuse-Argonne Tour and of my four weeks in France. It’s unscripted, so forewarned is forearmed: there is a good amount of umms and uhhs in there, and I apparently say “okay?” a lot now. There is, however, a lot of joy in telling you about my adventures in France.
