GOTH ARTILLERY BRIGADE
HELPED TO HALT THE HUNS

From the April 18th issue of the
Long Range SHIPPER, published by the
seth Field Artillery Brigade at Hohr-
Grenzhausen, Germany, we learn that
Magnus Stephens and Preston Bulge
of Battery B had gone to Alerey,
France, to attend the A. E. F. agri-
cultural college. The paper also
stated that the Brigade had been
transferred from the 32nd to the 41st
division.
In reviewing the part the Brigade
played in hating the Germans adj
vance on Paris, the Sniper says:
In addition to the French units
facing the German army in the line
was the 26th Division, Americans, in
front of the 146th F. A. and the Bird
Division, American, in front of the
14Sth, at the south of the Chateau
Thierry saliant.. Four companies of
the newly, arrived 2Sth division occu-
pied positions next to the Third di-
vision, these. with a few auxiliary
troops and the 66th F. A. brigade of
heavy artillery, representing the
American force of arms when the
storm broke at midnight of July 14th.
The German army was known to be
preparing for their biggest attack of
the war, the final drive that they
hoped would take them to Paris. The
French high command. anticipating
the direction of their movements, had
fringed the saliant with' masses of
troops, part of the general plan of
mobility that had characterized the
French defense against the German
hammer blows. Artillery continued
to come into the saliant as a steady
stream, and all roads leading to the
front We're massed with men, infant
ry, machine gun units, supplies, artil-
'lery, ammunition in a never ending
flow
From the time of taking the first
positions of the brigade until the
opening of the Marne-Champagne de-
fensive, the battle of Chateau Thier-
ny, as 1t is commonly called, continu-
Gus firing was done by all batteries.
German points of concentration, bat
terry position and roaos being contin-
ually under fire. Counter offensive
plans were daily made to meet the on
slaught of the German army, known
to be only a matter of days, or maybe
hours in coming.
The main attack of the German ar
my at ChauteauThierryw was launch
ed at midnight of July 14th, but the
French and American armies, antic-
ipating them, opened their counter
preparation artillery fire ten minutes
earlier and from comparative quiet on
the front few minutes before. the !
area blazed with the continuous fir ,
ing Of masses OF artillery. The Ger
man artillery was not inactive, and
the American front rear areas were
bathed with shell. The battle was
started
The following three days, which the
Americans in the line wrote one of
the most brilliant pages in military
annals were days of all the horrors
that a modern war offered. The
guns of the brigade fired continuous
ly, fired until they were 100 hot to
fire more; men cooled them and con- +
tinued firing, fired until the gun
crews were exhausted new crews TAX +
ng their places, and fired again and .
again.
Every shot fired in this memorable l
battle was fired with the mechanical
skill that characterizes modern artil- i
lery directed with mathematical pre-
cision and each shot of the IS big n

Since the last Memorial Day. there has been brought
to determination at least terrible struggle be-
tween two Numerically opposed conceptions of govern
men In the bringing about of this period for the evov

Today 55 years after the termination of another con-

believe that the most recent tempered into finer de-
gree Of mness than before the bonds of love and
understanding and respect that Americans have for
others We cannot but believe that the hatred and mis-
understanding which, in the last so years were merged in
to friendship, have been firmly merged into uni
y of thought and action unparalleled before in our re-
CARDS for national ideals.
On this Memorial Day, then, is there not greater
significance the cause for which our soldiers fought
and died than there has been for half century? And
should not in earnest resolution than ever he

cause for which those gloried dead gave their lives?
