Mauperthuis (French pronunciation: (listen)) is a commune in the Seine-et-Marne department in the Île-de-France region in north-central France. The village is famous for having produced five Musketeers including d'Artagnan, who was made famous in Alexandre Dumas, père's books. The ruined Château d'Artagnan still exists. Much of the land once belonged to the Montesquieu Family. This one tiny village billeted some of the US Air Service (precursor to the US Air Force) while the men flew out of the adjacent village of Saints. They were in Mauperthuis probably for just short of two months – from 8 July to 1 September 1918 out of the seven months it saw combat. More information...
