2026 Lost Battalion Tours Meuse-Argonne Pilgrimage

We have dates for the 2026 Meuse-Argonne Battlefield Pilgrimage!

 

The trip is from July 02 - 08, 2026. 

 

This next visit will be one where we really plan to put boots on the ground: we will be walking in the paths of some individual Doughboys in 2026. This is a new feature of Lost Battalion Tours, and we’re excited to share it with you!
