Military History.
HINDENBERG BEATEN
Offensive of Allies Under
Pershing Culminated in
Foe's Rout and Ivd '
to Armistice.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 26. To
day on the tenth anniversary of
the beginning halt le of the
"Bloody Aronne," America turns
ugaln to a glorious chapter In her
military history.
Leas spectacular In the public
eye at the time than the dashing
valor of Cuntingy and Chateau
Thierry, the Meuse-Argonne offen
sive stands out In the records of
the war department as the su
preme achievement of the Ameri-
can Expeditionary Forces JnUHY IAKE a cnance naving a
France. After 47 days of desper- ' wreck from glaring headlights
ate combat In the wilderness of
the Aigonne, the Yanks accom
plished what six months before
had appeared impossible, driving
the Germans from .almost Impreg
nable positions.
The St. Mlhiel offensive earlier
in September had reduced the last
salient in the (ieiman linen und
the Allies were compelled to stage
a frontal attack. The Meuse-Argonne
territory formed the bottle
neck through which the: Germans
planned to make orderly w 1th
diawul as the Allies pUHhed them
hack. Nowhere else on the west
ern front were their defenses built
on such solid foundations.
Opposing Strength
On the roll. i g hills and in the
almost impenetrable forest, the
Germans had five lines ot defense.
The f.st was-the famous II hide fi
lling line, elaborate concrete en
trenchments with vast areas of
wire stretched In front. Hack of
the Hludcnburg line was a support
Hue known as the Hagen Stellung
while farther to the tear was a
powerfully organized By at era of
trenches.
For launching the attack In con
Juncilon with the ndvnnce of al
lied forces along the entire front,
General iVrshlng had the greatest
concent ration of American troops
In hfstoiy. There were 22 Ameri
can divisions and a total of 631.

American Advice
The roar of 2.775 American and
French guns along a 2:)-niib- front
made the night of September 25
an Inferno. The general attack
began at 5:30 a. m. after six hours
' I
of artillery preparation. The of-
feet of this storm of fire was indi
cated in the initial advance, the
American penetrating the en
emy's line to an average depth of
seven miles before being halted.
The enemy soon recovered from
the surprise, and September 27
and tlio following diys the resist
ance grew continually stronger.
Had roads were hampering the
bringing up of supplies and artil
lery, and the Germans were fight
ing desperately to nold their po
sitions. The Fecond phase of the
battle began October 4 ami lasted
until November 1. Terrific fight
ing on every bill and In every
wood was taking a heavy loll but
the Americans pressed on.
Both Sides Lose Heavily
The releiuless advance steadily
wore down the enemy's strength
and finally compelled him to be
gin a general retreat. The retreat
became a near rout, with the
Americans driving onward until
the Germans asked for an armis
tice. Considered the army
greatest
achievement In the World War.
the advance had been made at the
heaviest sacrifice. The total
Ameifcan casualties In Ihe Meuse
Argonne were li;..r.2t. More than
Ifi.niMj men w-re killed. H.Ktiu were
missing; 6.8:t2 wounded. 1H.MW
gase and 2,629 shell shocked.
The (ieiman casualties were 126.
