The French <em>Ouvrage la Fert\u00e9<\/em>, part of the Maginot Line defense works, is subject to this consolidation. But the Germans move with ulterior motives, as to them capturing a Maginot Line fort in the first week of the offensive has a huge propaganda value. Tour guide Richard Tucker shows Indy the grounds of a modern tragedy, where 107 French soldiers gave their lives.<\/p>\n<p>Join us on Patreon: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/TimeGhostHistory\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/TimeGhostHistory<\/a><br \/>\nOr join The TimeGhost Army directly at: <a href=\"https:\/\/timeghost.tv\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/timeghost.tv<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Check out (and book!)

We published a version of this video already, but since we did that, we found some great footage depicting the actual fighting at <em>Ouvrage de la Fert\u00e9<\/em>. As we love history, we also love how this footage brings the story and the memorial to life. We wanted to share this experience with you, and decided to upload an improved version with new archive footage.
