PARIS, June t1.-"First 10 flghtW
The United states marines have made
good their pledge.
With a bravery and dash that has
won universal praise from British.
French and American commanders, the
American sea soldiers lived up 90 their
traditions I'm the battle Of Chateau
Thierry and won the biggest Ameri-
can battle Of the war.
Il was not the first important bat
tie fought by the American troops,
that honor falling 10 the force d.
rected by General Pershing himself
which captured Csntigny, but Il was
the heaviest, the most spectacular and
the most significant from a strategic
viewpoint our men have yet fought.
They are now holding their gains
intact along a ten-mile front from
Chateau Thierry 90 Ninly. Tho adj
vance at It's smallest point was a 1T
tie less than a mile; at its greatest ex-
tent, where the marines drove ahead
regardless OF their detectives and cap
tured the village OF Torcy, II repre-
sents a three-mile advance.
The victory Is the most glorious
chapter In the history Of the United
states Marine Corps. The devil dogs"
have prlded themselves on their valor,
and in their recruiting appeals early IN
the war their officers laid great stress
on the fact that the marines have, al
ways in American history, been FIRST
TO light" and hardest to defeat. Their
triumph IN this battle adds immeasur-
ably 10 this reputation.
The real military Importance OF their
victory is greater than lt seems az first
glance. The Germans had driven a
sharp salient into the Franco-Ameri-
can line between Chateau Thierry aud
the Clignon River. At Chateau Thlerry
fhey were nearest to effectlng a cross
