First World War
1914–15
Described as "an articulate and immensely self-confident gunner",
Nivelle played a key role in defeating German attacks during the Alsace Offensive, the First Battle of the Marne and the First Battle of the Aisne, as a result of the intense artillery fire he organised against them.  Consequently, he was promoted to the rank of general in October 1914.
