-
Again, what I want to insist on is--
-
look at where it says Battle of the Marne.
-
There's a town called Lagny there.
-
Now it's practically a suburb of Paris, L-A-G-N-Y.
-
You could hear the battle in Paris.
-
You could hear the roll of thunder of the guns.
-
When you ask how the French home front holds together so long,
-
it's that the Germans are so close.
-
In 1918, they will be close again.
-
In 1918, they're firing this huge gun
-
which the British soldiers called "Big Bertha."
-
It's lobbing from way, way the hell up in the north.
