<b>6th June 1918 saw more American soldiers fall on French soil than the famous 1944 D-Day landings. Why is this fact so little known?</b></p><p>As well as providing a detailed account of this funereal episode, <i>Lafayette We Are Here!</i> looks at the reasons behind American involvement in what was primarily a European conflict.
