    A group of military personnel in camouflage uniforms are gathered on and around a bridge flanked by two ornate stone columns topped with classical statues, in what appears to be a French town. Several civilian vehicles are passing through, and a sign reading 'Boulangerie' is visible in the background along a main street. The scene suggests a military visit or commemorative event at a historically significant location in France.

    The Vermont National Guard sent a contingency of five soldiers along with Maj. Gen. Steven Cray, adjutant general, Vermont National Guard, to France celebrating the 100 year anniversary of the end of World War I. Each state that had National Guard representation in World War I were invited back to France to celebrate the anniversary. National Guardsmen visited monuments, cemeteries, villages, battle sites, trenches, museums, and attended ceremonies as part of their visit. The Center for Military History provided guides throughout the trip.
