victory also wiped out troublesome

fighting unfold under his glasses

II did not make any difference TO
the French artillery, Promptly on
the moment previously set for the
attack the guns ceased their de-
sultory barking and started on n
violent drum fire. The poilus went
over the top completely hidden from
the enemy's view by the friendly
fog. The famous French creeping
harrage cut off the enemy positions
which IL was proposed TO attack, and
the French waves went over position
after position until every objective
was taken. The onemy's confusion

ried up reserves to back up part
