Some Gave All: Monument to Charles Peguy, Villaroy, Île-de-France, France



Monument to Charles Peguy, Villaroy, Île-de-France, France.




We've already mentioned Charles Peguy in a prior post on Le Grande Tombe de Villaroy.  Here's a nearby monument to Peguy himself.

Peguy is a celebrated French poet who, as already noted, lost his life in the battle noted.  He's an interesting character having gone from being an atheist to deeply believing, but quixotically non observant Catholic.  This monument is in his honor.
