Jeff also visited the town of Is-sur-Tille in Burgundy where his grandfather was stationed in World War I to see the town and camp that were described in the many letters that he had sent home and to walk a little in his shoes. Jeff said "He died when my mother was only three years old so the letters gave us a chance to learn a little about him and some of his interests." Sample photos
