The Lost Battalion – Trapped Behind Enemy Lines in WWI

In October 1918, 550 American soldiers advanced too far into the Argonne Forest during WWI… and were completely surrounded.

For five brutal days they faced starvation, enemy fire, and even friendly artillery from their own side. Their only lifeline was a single homing pigeon—Cher Ami—who saved hundreds of lives while mortally wounded.

This is the incredible true story of The Lost Battalion, a symbol of courage and defiance against impossible odds.
