A Documentary Film about World War I

I am working on a documentary telling the story of my Great-Uncle, Walter S. Lindahl, who was killed in action in France during World War I; and the stories of other soldiers who fought in the same region with Walter in the 27th and 30th American Divisions assigned to the British.

Here are a few photos of Walter's past:
