Cantigny Battlefied
Cantigny, France
Embroidered on the side are the coordinates of the Cantigny American Monument, the site marking the first major offensive operation by an American division in World War I. On one side of the memorial appears the inscription:
- ERECTED BY THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA TO COMMEMORATE THE FIRST ATTACK BY AN AMERICAN DIVISION IN THE WORLD WAR.
On another side of the memorial appears the inscription:
- THE FIRST DIVISION UNITED STATES ARMY OPERATING UNDER THE X FRENCH CORPS CAPTURED THE TOWN OF CANTIGNY ON MAY 28 1918 AND HELD IT AGAINST NUMEROUS COUNTERATTACKS.
On the morning of May 28, 1918, soldiers of the 1st Infantry Division attacked the German-held village of Cantigny, seizing the high ground after intense fighting. For three days they endured heavy shelling and repeated counterattacks, refusing to give back the ground they had taken.
The victory at Cantigny proved that the American Expeditionary Forces were ready for the brutal fighting that lay ahead across France.
These coordinates mark the ground where the United States first went on the offensive in the Great War.

A soft, worn-in cotton cap that reads like a personal map. The Classic Dad Cap settles low on the brow, its precurved Permacurv® visor and subtle stitches giving a lived-in look. The front bears stamped, typewriter-style coordinates and a place name — small details that feel like a quiet memory: a picnic under pines, a weekend road stop, a shoreline at dusk. A hideaway strap with an antique brass buckle keeps the fit tailored, and the muted embroidered mark above the opening adds a handcrafted touch. It’s the kind of hat you reach for on slow mornings, afternoon projects, and long drives when you want something that feels familiar fast.
