motor trucks had not been able TO
catch up with the enemy.
The Americans were not slow in
following the advantage on the left
wing, which had met with the most
resistance and began to press for
ward Immediately in the Bois des
Loges on the heels of the Germans,
clearing up all who Jagged behind.
They pushed their line northward
