Death Valley - Vilcoy, France - St. Mihiel Front

Hoffman, Peter B.

Death Valley in Vilcoy, France is pictured during the St. Mihiel front during World War I. The photographer is on top of a hill with dead grass. In the distance, and at the bottom of the hill, is presumably Vilcoy, France. It is a small village with a church in the middle of the photograph and surrounding buildings. Some of the buildings do not have roofs and some of the trees in town do not have any leaves. Behind the village is another hill and open grasslands. A road runs through the town by the church and disappears behind buildings.
