WW1 WWI 1919 US Army AEF VICTORY PARADE Le Mans France RPPC Photo Postcard Rare

Description: Acquired as part of a large WWI collection. See photo for details and back. The photograph depicted in the postcard captures a World War I victory parade in Le Mans, France. Shown are French soldiers. This celebratory event took place in 1919, following the end of the war and the signing of the Treaty of Versailles on June 28, 1919. The image shows soldiers in uniform marching in formation, horse-drawn carriages, and a crowd of civilians observing the parade. The banner displayed on the building in the background reads "A NOS SOLDATS VICTORIEUX," which translates to "To Our Victorious Soldiers," indicating the purpose of the event as a tribute to the soldiers' efforts and success. American soldiers participated in this parade, as Le Mans was an important location for the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF). The town hosted an American embarkation center used to process and repatriate American troops following the armistice [oai_citation:1,Records of the American Expeditionary Forces (World War I](https://www.archives.gov/research/guide-fed-records/groups/120.html). The presence of American forces in the area and their involvement in post-war activities ensured their participation in local celebrations and parades, honoring their contributions alongside their French and Allied counterparts [oai_citation:2,W.
