Left Avril and arrived the same day in Boulange. We’ve been marching around Metz for the last 7 days. Boulange is a small town made up mostly of Polish and Italians. All the businesses are owned by Italians. We were welcomed by both communities. We are staying with townspeople but in separate rooms. There’s an iron mine and with permission of the managers we were able to use the showers to clean up at set times, with supervision of the managers and our officers. In all, a good welcome and nice stay.
