Postcard from France

A postcard from my 2nd Great Uncle’s collection which he brought back from France. The color picture is the google street view of the same location. “MONTIGNY-le-ROI – Hotel de Ville et la Voie”. On the back of this postcard is written: “Our Hdqur were just opposite the school house and the old castle ruins and poppy and daisy field about which I wrote you back of Hdqur on the hill.” #overthere #armisticeday #worldwar1 (at Montigny-Le-Roi, Champagne-Ardenne, France)
