My father, an American, fought at battles in Argonne. In one particular battle he was the only one to come out alive in his unit. He would be immensely proud that you laid flowers there and of the cemetery that the French people have built. Thank You

French guy here. Your sacrifice is not forgiven. I am breathing free air, as my children are, thanks to these guys. My gran great father died in April 1918, his body never to be recovered. I know a thing or two regarding the mia's. Long live the US of A.

So few realize, there are 12 American cemeteries in France, far more than any other country. God bless you for honoring the dead as sooo many Americans died in France. Our debt to France for assistance in our Revolutionary War has been repaid in blood many times over. No question, without the French, I doubt we could have won our Revolution.

You brought this U.S. veteran to tears. Thank you for taking the time. Love from USA. Some might say "those boys never got to make it home" well as an American veteran I'd say they did. Because France is family. Our nations owe one another our existence. Viva la France.

As a veteran I appreciate you showing respect to our fallen heroes. Thank you Marie love your channel.

I want to thank you for visiting the American Cemetery. I'm an American Veteran. I served in the United States Army, I was a 12B Combat Engineer in the 101st Airborne Division, mid 70's early 80's. I worked most of my adult life as a Heavy Equipment Mechanic. I'm now in my mid 60's and have moved from the Pacific North West to a South Western State where it is Hot and nice warm winters. My body is broken, and I can't take the cold any more. I miss all my friends, and my brother and sister. I have found a Church to go to, but still feel all alone. Your video did warm my heart, and put a tear in my eyes. Thank you.

I’m a retired American Soldier and Iraq veteran, thank you for honoring my brothers, someday I want to visit Normandy and pay my respects. Thank you to those French citizens who still appreciate the sacrifices of my fellow soldiers.

As an American thank you for visiting the graves of American soldiers who gave their lives to protect others .. you honor their bravely .. thank you

Thank you for visiting and paying tribute to all of the men and women who paid the ultimate sacrifice. ❤️

There's no doubt that the grandparents and their grandparents lived a way harder life back then, it's only right to appreciate the freedom, the unity, and their beliefs. God bless to the greater good of humanity 🇺🇲💯

The soldier who died on Nov. 10, 1918 is heartbreaking. Armistice was literally the following day.

Marie you a hero of your generation to realize the sacrifices other generations have made for our freedom. I can't thank you enough for your attention to details in your videos. I am a veteran and my grandfather fought in WW1 and my father in WW2 and we would all thank your parents for raising such a wonderful young adult as yourself. Please keep up the great work you do informing people of this history. Your countryside was beautiful. Stay well and be safe.

I'm an American and want to thank you for continuing to care about those who lost their lives for freedom, in the liberation of France and the world for that matter. I commented last year and will again now... Vive La France, Vive la liberté. I enjoy your videos and thank you again. --A friend from "across the pond".

Marie, thank you from my heart for your visit there, and for this video. If Levi, Peter, Grover, Gabriel, Joseph and Swin could look down on this scene, to see a sweet young French Lady placing roses at their grave, I'm sure they would feel that their sacrifice had meaning. They would be touched by you, and I know all American veterans who see this are as well. God bless you. My Granddad Ed Self Went to war with his fellow Americans there, and came home alive. I grew up wondering why he was deaf in one ear, and missing two fingers. I found out later he was deafened by artillery fire. But after he returned he became a cowboy working for a stock yard in California. He actually lost his fingers in a roping accident, not in the war! He became the forman there and retired in Pamona. He loved us grandkids so much.

Thank you for this! Both my grandfather fought in the war, and one grandmother was a military nurse. Grandad gates was a part of the European battles. The respect you showed at the cemetery brought me to tears.

As a vet it is an honor to see you pay so much respect to all the fallen in both World Wars.

As a Son, who just buried his Vietnam Veteran Father 2 weeks ago, I would like to thank you for honoring our fallen American soldiers. Your respect will not be forgotten and hopefully my family can return the respect to you in some small way in the future. Dieu bénisse la France.

Thank you for going and paying your respects to the fallen soldiers. Here is a like and comment to help your channel grow and get you the recognition you deserve.

As a US Veteran I appreciate the respect you've shown to the fallen heroes.

Young lady you have just put this old vet in tears. Your respect is so very rare these days. Thank you.

Ms. Marie, Thank you so much. I was in tears from your very first "Thank You For Your Service." I was honored by your respect for all the lost services men and women. You are a wonderful young lady. Be safe and always in good health.

The American soldier's body that is buried at the tomb of the unknown soldier in Arlington National Cemetery came from the Meuse-Argonne cemetery.

Marie, your humility, sweetness and kindness are such amazing traits. We are lucky and blessed to walk alongside you on this and every journey you experience. Thank you for visiting these cemeteries and memorials. And thank you for being you. ❤⚜

Marie, here is a salute to you 🫡. Thank you very much for honoring and paying your respect to our fallen U.S. soldiers. Very well done video. You are a very remarkable young woman.

Marie, thank you so much for honoring our American dead. What you did was so respectful and wonderful. Thank you --

You're A good person, thank you for paying your respects to those soldiers that gave their life to liberate France. ❤❤❤

Even the clouds were crying! Marie, you are amazing.

The white roses were a perfect choice. The cemetery was beautiful and well maintained, and your drive home was absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for taking us along....

Marie, it's videos like this that really make me wish we all could do something to lift your spirits after you go to these heavy places. Seeing the weight of these places on your shoulders is touching. I brought three buddies back from the Middle East in pine boxes. I escorted them home and met with their loved ones. We used shirt garters from the military to pull the flag in so it hugged the coffin. Seeing the families lose it when they saw the flag-draped coffin for the first time is probably the most emotionally destructive thing I've endured. I didn't mind the combat and I'm fine with it to this day, but bringing my battle buddies home took all I had. I miss them every day. Military cemeteries are truly special places filled with true patriots and selfless people who gave their all for the freedoms Americans enjoy to this day. Remember, our flag doesn’t fly because of the wind that moves it. It flies with the breath of every fallen soldier who protected it. Marie, I hope you find something positive to see and experience. Those men in those cemeteries were there protecting France, among other nations. They died so that your family could exist and you could be born and have these amazing adventures. Live every day abundantly. When I watch your channel it feels a little like I'm watching my little sister (even though we're not related), and I just want you to be happy and have incredible experiences. I hope you smile and laugh today. That's what matters.

What a beautiful soul you are. Thank you! My grandfather was in the great War. When WW2 broke out he literally tried to sign up again. Lol. A first generation American from Germany. His sons ( my Uncles) went and fought. My Uncle John came in at Normandy 5 days after the intial invasion and survived fighting in the hedgerows, although he was shot and sent to England to recuperate and met his wife who was a nurse there. He lived till he was 90. RIP Uncle John. In honor of my Grandpa WW1, my 2 Uncles WW2 and my Father (Korean War) I've sent you a PayPal donation. The world needs more people like yourself. God bless you.

Thank you for honoring the fallen. Your sincerity gives me hope for the future. I was struck that 3 of the soldiers you left flowers for died on Nov 10, 1918. The next to last day of the war. Brought home the tragedy that much more.

Marie, thank you so much. I retired from the US Air Force after 20 years of service. I had the pleasure of being deployed with the French Air Force during one of my deployments. They taught me how to play petanque. This video chocked me up as much because of the sacrifice of those men, but also because of your love and care for our shared history. You certainly are one honorable young lady. Thanks again and I salute you Marie.

I'm always struck by how young these men were.

OK, congratulations, this video made me cry. I'm a 30-year veteran of the US military. I'm so grateful that you would show respect to American servicemen. I'm so grateful that France would allow the flag of the United States to be flown on their sovereign soil. I'm so grateful to France as we (the USA) could not have won our independence without France's help. The cemetery, in spite of the weather conditions, was beautiful. I served as a funeral detail officer in my first assignment providing military honors to veterans throughout the state where I was assigned (in the northern United States), and this video just brought back so many memories, and how honored I was to show respect. Vive la France, and God Bless the United States of America, and God rest the souls of our French and American comrades in arms.

I appreciate how respectful you are with these videos about the two world wars. Here is a poem written by a Canadian soldier...John McCrae that has great meaning for most Canadians: In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.

Thank you Marie. Your nation’s young men suffered horribly in both World Wars so please remember them as well. God Bless you and France.

Thank you for visiting our dead soldiers from WWI. By doing so you stand out as one whose priorities show respect and honor in contrast to this increasingly narcissistic world.

Thank you very much Marie. Please tell your parents they did a wonderful job, raising such a beautiful loving caring young lady.

While other KZfaqrs try shock people with more outlandish shocking behavior you provided a wonderful example of how to honor the people who fought against tyranny and the shocking cruelty of humanity. For a young lady to decide to go to a cemetery filled with foreigners, that is far more than most people here in the US do for their own countrymen.

Such a beautiful and touching video Marie. Thank you for doing this tribute and honoring those who fought and died to preserve our freedom and ways of life. You are a special person. Take care and stay safe 🙏❤️

Thank you for highlighting the hallowed grounds of Meuse-Argonne. Today is Memorial Day in the United States and divine intervention brought your video to me. It means so much to see your genuine concern, the thought to bring white roses, and the way you honored and revered these service men/wormen. I'm an American Air Force Veteran who spent 20 of my 24 years stationed in Europe. Today, more than ever, I am indebted to those that gave their lives so that others may live free. Merci, Danke, Gracias, and Thank YOU. - Kevin D. Benjaman, Master Sergeant, USAF (Retired)

Many of us Americans visit Arlington once/twice in our lives, especially if we live a distance away. The French people have gone above and beyond honoring our fallen solders and for that we are grateful. Thank you for your sincere 'honor' visit. Regards from Wisconsin

Hello Marie. Thank you so much for honoring our fallen American soldiers with you presence at the cemetery. Truly an honor that someone like you whose heart is full of kindness would take the time and visit them. You truly are a joy in all of your videos. Hope to get to France one day. Best wishes to you.

Been watching more of your American tour videos. Your reverence and respect…for our boys who fought for freedom in both wars. If there were more like you, the world would be a better place.

Marie Thank you. You have a kind heart. From USA western mass. Thank you a great video.

Je t'aime. Thank you for sharing this video. My father was in France and Germany in WWI with the U.S. Army.

I been to this military cemetery back in the mid 2000, while I was there I did see some school children there in the cemetery.

I’m bawling my eyes out. That is so sweet of you to do this. Thank you from America.

Marie, Thank You for Visiting the American Cemetery and Honoring Some of Our Fallen Heroes. While I served in the U.S. Army, 1972-1974, I was stationed in Germany and I got to visited a few beautiful Military Cemeteries in France. You have such a Beautiful Country. I hope I live long enough to return to your country. Marie, You are such a Sweet Good Hearted Young Lady. I Love Your Videos.

Hey Marie 🤗✨💗 Thank you for your deep and honest compassion. That you traveled to Meuse-Argonne and paid your personal respects to the shared histories of our fallen soldiers - and that you laid flowers on several of the graves ... is infinitely kind and tremendously honorable. I truly have no words that could describe how much respect I have for you, my friend. It might seem like such a little thing, to go there and see and learn and feel the history... I assure you, it's not a little thing at all. 🥰✨

I'm an American veteran. Your act of kindness was very moving to watch. Thank you. May God bless you. It's nice to see something positive on the internet.

Your videos bring me to tears. You are to be commended for this. Gratefully.

You are beautiful showing your thoughts and paying respects to the fallen soldiers

It's Sweet & Heaven sent of you Marie to make such a Respectable & fitting Tribute for all those Sacrifices, a beautiful sentiment to give out flowers throughout, I like to believe they are grateful & smiling from above especially from a young french lady like yourself, Lest we forget. 🏛️ 🙏 💐 They did a great job with the grounds & monuments organising everything, most informative with all the items for visitors & family's that lost love ones there, it's heartbreaking seeing the wall of those that are missing hopefully there at peace now. I'm glad you let everyone know with the book that You & on our behalf with all the veterans have been there. Thanks for this whole trip, it's probably been kind of a pilgrimage for you, hopefully while reflecting it didn't take to much of a toll & you enjoyed like I did the scenic drive back home, your a wonderful soul,Take care. 💗 🧭 ✌️

Thank you very much for remembering the Americans who gave their life for freedom in your Country and around the world. May God Bless you in all your paths.

Marie, You're such a beautiful soul and such a great person inside and out. Thanks for sharing this quiet time with us. I always enjoy all your videos and I hope You're feeling better everyday. Keep up the great videos.

Thank you very much that all you do !!! My grandfather was in the Rainbow Division . He was wounded twice , the last time was a gas attack. Again thank you for showing the respect for our fallen.

Another lovely video. You are a very sweet and respectful young woman. You said your birthday is November 10. My birthday is November 3. There are a lot of years in difference, though. I never realized that there were that many soldiers buried in France. I have been to the Only US WWI memorial in Kansas City, Missouri. In fact, I was an inspector that worked with the remodeling of the memorial. If you get a chance to see it that would be nice. If you ever visit Kansas City, there are some interesting museums. One is the Nelson-Atkins Museum. It has the world's largest Badminton Birds on the lawn. The museum contains priceless paintings and sculptures.

Thank you Marie for taking the time to pay respects and enlighten us on the sad and horrifying price paid that has been paid for our freedoms 💕

Very beautiful and well kept cemetery. Hats off for the flowers and to all those who maintain the grounds.

Extraordinary sacrifices made by so many. Only special people are capable of such respect and remembrance. Thanks for sharing with us.

“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” - from one who witnessed the horrors of that war firsthand

You have such a beautiful soul! Thank you for taking the time to pay respect to those who fought and died!❤️ 🇫🇷 🇺🇸

Thank You for paying respects to our American Hero's.

There's a specific story of the Meuse-Argonne Offensive that's called The Lost Battalion. They made it into a movie of the same name and I highly recommend watching it edit: November 10th 1918 is also the day before the armistice. That is depressing as frick

You have a big heart Marie. All of those fallen soldiers were probably smiling at you up above. That's probably what the sun coming out meant at the end of your visit. It was their way of saying thank you! 🙏

Thank you for laying flowers on American Great Grandfathers graves. Thank you to the French people/nation for giving 10s of thousands of American soldiers beautiful resting places

Marie your beautiful tributes to our fallen and your country's maintenance of the American cemeteries makes me feel love for France I've never felt before.

Awesome video. Beautiful. Thanks Marie ❤🇫🇷🇺🇸

You are a very special young Lady. Thank You from a retired US sailor.

Thank you for making your videos about our Fallen Heroes instead of about yourself ❤. Your Commitment to pay them the Honor and Respect that they deserve is very Admirable.

While stationed in Germany my AF Fighter Squadron did a flyover of the Meuse Argonne Cemetary for Memorial Day. I'll never forget the warm welcome of the local community who invited us to have lunch with them after the ceremony. Afterwards the group I was with visited the battlefield of Butte de Vaquois.

Thank you for remembering the soldiers. I'm sure they would have appreciated it. Swen is old Norse for Lad or boy. :)

From another veteran. Again, thank you for taking your time to film this and share it with us. These are American heroes, every one.

Thank you, it was very kind of you with the roses. It's means alot when our Warriors are remembered for their sacrifices.

Very well done ! Tears in my eyes again, but that' s OK. Thank you for taking us along ! I also appreciate the views on your trip home. France is such a beautiful Country.

I would like to thank you for your time to make this video and to thank the French people for building and maintaining this beautiful cemetery.

Thank you for being you Marie. Just a genuine good person. This was a great video with a lot of care and love put into it.

Thank you!❤❤

Wow. I wasn't expecting that to make me cry. Well done.

Marie, bless you. Thank you is not meaningful enough for your showing of gratitude and appreciation for their sacrifice. This video touched me so deeply, thank you Marie, thank you. God Bless.

I'm 65 y/o and a veteran of the U.S. Navy. This video made my eyes water up some. Like the lady said, it's unusual for a young person to do something like that. So many in my own country don't even realize the sacrifice that it took to give them the life they have. This video means so much to me. From the bottom of my heart, thank you young lady.

Marie, Thank you for these videos. I am a veteran of the US Navy, I served 10 years as a Hospital Corpsman. I have traced my family's service as far back as the American Civil War, ( both sides) and every conflict since then. If i may reccomend an excellent documentary , please give "They shall not grow old" by Peter Jackson (of Lord of the Rings fame) and if at all possible watch the making of as well. Jackson was given the task of putting together film from WWI (silent film), restoring it, colorizing it, then using speach pathologists, figure out what was said and then had actual current soldiers from the units in the films speak what was said in the film. I can not recommend high enough.

I'm a first timer to your videos and came across this one. As an American amateur historian for WW1 and WW2 history with relatives whom fought in those horrific wars. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for visiting that cemetery and remembering those fallen soldiers. I actually choked up and my eyes filled with tears watching this video. Again. Thank you, very much

Merci, mon ange😇 from Louisiana ❤

Loved the beautiful flowers. Thanks for your kindness.

Marie, thank you for paying your respects for our fallen. I've watched your videos of the cemeteries there in France of the different countries who fought and died on your soil. To see a young lady like you take the time and show interest in honoring all these heroes who literally gave their all to protect freedom around the world, it brings tears to my eyes but great pride and gratefulness within me! The placing of the roses at random graves, mentioning their names and saying a few words to them...I cried! It was so touching! You are a beautiful soul!! Thank you for what you're doing, keep it up!

Thank you Marie for honoring our fallen hero’s. This brought tears to my eyes. So many of these heros are alive in Heaven with Jesus now and forever ❣️🥰💕💕💕

You are such a sweet and caring person thank you so much for this sharing this video with us.

Thank you so so much.

Your kindness and respect are unbelievable. Truly appreciated. And thank you for giving many of us a first look at this lovely war cemetery and center. Quite impressive and if local folk are taking care of it, I thank them from the bottom of my heart.

Thanks for honoring our fellow countrymen. I’m a veteran and very much appreciated the kind gesture. I shed a few tears with you..

People all over the world are forgetting the sacrifices those young men made. The memorial day ceremonies here in the US are not as heavily attended as they used to be, as our WW2, Korea, and now Vietnam vets are dying off. It's a shame, because forgetting the horrors of those wars is what will make people allow the next one. Thanks for caring enough to do this!

This Veteran says thank you for taking the time. Where those grave markings ‘marble’? So beautiful. Very respectful.

Interestingly, we share a birthday. Though not my biological birthday, Nov 10 is the Marine Corps birthday, which is every bit if not more important to me than my actual one. More importantly, thank you for doing this. You're a real one, Marie.

Thanks for such a respectful video. I teared up as you walked through the headstones.😪

I was given my grandmothers cousin US Army Purple Heart and news paper article that was written about his death. He was killed in France WW2 stationed out of Brainaird Feild Hartford Connecticut USA. So honored and humbled to have his medal..

Thank you for visiting the American Cemetery. I had an uncle who died overseas. Another uncle and a father who were part of the invasion of southern France

What a little sweetheart you are for doing that. Thank you for visiting and honoring our soldiers who gave the ultimate sacrifice, and for buying flowers to put on their graves. God Bless you for that.

Thank You Marie for paying your respects, 20 Yr. Vet. Such a beautiful monument, and so nice to see you take an interest in history and the sacrifices made. You're a Sweetheart.
