wounds forced him to lay it down.
Then came the work with bayonets,
grenades and flame throwers. Thirty
Germans were incinerated in one dug
out when they fired on the Americans
after crying "kamerad."
Big cellars in Cantigny, where it was
possible to conceal a hundred troops,
were completely smashed ly American
artillery. Enemy losses were probably
the heaviest in these pits of dath.
The Germans ran toward the Amer
icans, "kamerading" in groups of ten
and twenty from dugouts or when (hey
were cornered.
In hand to hand fighting the Amer
icans iifd the weapon they have learn-,
ed to love tho bayonet and the boches
squealed like pigs when they faced the
cold steel.
Prisoners were a polyglot mess, rang
ing from boys of 18 or 19 to men of 45.
All wre suffering from shell shock,
a result of the tremendous bombard
ment which preceded the assault.
The French gave the highest prais
to the offensive spirit of the Ameri
cans. Not only did they not show hesi
tation in the assault, but their officers
experienced considrable difficulty in
holding them back,
The first question asked by wounded
soldiers arriving at the hospitals always
is as to when they would be able to re
turn to the line.
If anything more like this is com.

After the first arrivals, the doctors
were extremely wary in handling the pa
tients nntil they had examined their
pockts. They found the majority of
them had hand grenades tucked all over
them. When four grenades were pulled
from the hip pockets of one of the
boys, he drawled:
"Great .ball game this morning,
doe!"
All the Americans rehearsed the at
tack in ttie rear of the lines, but many
of them said that when tbey saw the
famish, looking tanks actually waddling
across the shell holes they had to laugh.;
Sometimes they thonght the tanks
weren't going fast enough, so they ran
ahead of them.
