mwesson030 Posted January 11, 2018 Share #1 Posted January 11, 2018 I recently was given my great-great grandfathers possessions and a scrap book of his documents from his time in the military. This map is from the WW1 section of the book, but I really don't know what this is a map of. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usaaf93 Posted January 11, 2018 Share #5 Posted January 11, 2018 Here is an example of what a champignonniere looks like. It is dug in rock under earth to keep the temperature constant. During the war, soldiers used them to protect themselves from the bombing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
