- _UID: 1338238999B6451DBDD4193B90DA43BFF990
Notes:
Anne was a WW II war bride from Coucy les Eppes, Picardy, in northern France, near the town of Laon. The village has had a stable population, with 793 souls in 1793 and 417 in 1946 when Anne and her husband were there. It's a farming community, growing primarily sugar beets at that time.
The farmers were unaware that farming could be dangerous. In November, 2010, Coucy les Eppes was evacuated for almost a week while specialized teams unearthed unexploded shells left over from World War I by the Germans who had an artillery depot around the village. They dug up 30 tons of non-chemical shells that were removed and destroyed. The shells were discovered by a resident who was digging in his garden.
This is not an unusual occurrence in France. Specialized units conduct at least 800 operations each year, removing 35 to 50 tons of ammunition.
Why was the vast amount of artillery shells there? The village had been chosen by the the seventh German army because of its strategic position. The railway line was built in August 1917 connecting to the junction of other railways lines. Coucy-lès-Eppes was chosen for the landing and storage of ammunition.
The town has become so important in the eyes of the occupant Castle Coucy-lès-Eppes was turned into the German headquarters. The Germans installed shell deposits near the road between Coucy to Marchais, on sandy soil, easy to dig. They also installed close to the railway station, so as to supply the front quickly. A part of them was intended for anti-aircraft guns hidden in the mountains of Festieux. The Chemin des Dames was obviously the final destination of the train that made the round trip several times a day.
