Description

A Bridge that was built by the 315th Engineers near Sassey, Meuse, and Argonne, France during World War 1. The bridge is possibly over a waterway or ground that is covered in wooden and metal debris.The photographer is placed on the right bank and is shooting towards the bridge, and the opposite side of the bridge. The sides of the bridge appear to be stone and have two stairways on the left and right sides that lead up to the top. The top of the bridge has a metal railing over the open part of the bridge to prevent anything from falling off.
