Joffre Memorial, Paris France
This is the memorial to Joseph Joffre, who was commander of the French forces in World War One from the start of the war into 1916. While he was basically promoted up out of that position in 1916, his early leadership in the war was responsible for the French being able to stop the tide of the German advance.
