Falling Through the Archives EP 7

Falling Through the Archives

Yesterday, Sunday August 2, the first military action on the Western Front occurred as a skirmish at Joncherey in northeastern France near the border. History tells us that a small German cavalry, known then as uhlans, illegally crossed the border and clashed with the local French militia. But as you’ll soon hear, reports of the day aren’t very clear on who crossed who’s border.
