American Legion lays cornerstone of Roosevelt Bridge at Château-Thierry
On August 23, 1921, as part of its French tour, the American Legion delegation attended the ceremonies of laying the cornerstone for the Roosevelt Bridge, which was built to replace the bridge the Germans destroyed in 1918 over the Marne River in Château-Thierry, France. The bridge was named after Theodore Roosevelt and his son Quentin who was killed in action in France. Camera pans the town, the many French and American dignitaries and soldiers attending the event, and the Marne River; final sequence is long shots of the formal dedication ceremony. Identified on the extreme left of group are: Franklin D’Olier, former National Commander, and Major John G. Emery, current National Commander of the American Legion.
