The World War I Tours American Monument located in the city of Tours, France, one hundred and forty-six miles southwest of Paris.

The Monument commemorates the efforts of the 650,000 men who served during World War I in the Services of Supply of the American Expeditionary Forces and whose work behind the battle lines made possible the brilliant achievements of the American Armies in the field. It is located just east of the southern end of the Pont Wilson which crosses the Loire River in prolongation of the main street (Rue National) of Tours, and consists of a handsome fountain of white stone with a gold gilded statue of an American Indian holding an eagle. The surrounding area was developed into a small park by the Commission.
