In the photo below, my grandfather is photographed center with another 29th Division soldier during World War I and a person on the left whose uniform I cannot identify. Is it French? My grandfather told his wife and daughter (for years) that he never left Alabama during the war (Camp McLellan), but unless French soldiers came to Camp McLellan to train, I'm guessing that he really went to France with his division.
