From St MihieI the battalion was
moved to the Heights Of the Meuse to
take part in the final drive in ne
Meuse-Argonne offensive. Going into
position on Octobr %, the men fought
defensively until November 3, when
Hill 37S was attacked.
Protected by hundreds Of machine
guns and by a barrage Of heavy she'll
fire, the Germans twice threw back
the American assault on the hIlL.
Then. in one supreme effort, the men
Of the Seventy-ninth went up the hill
once more, drove the Germans from
their strongly fortified positions, and
started the enemy's rout.

Lieut.. 1. S. Moore, who lives at Is
Adams place northwest. was also with
the 312th all through the heavy
fighting, from the time they relieved
the French on September IS. He de-
scribes the nonchalant manner in
which the French troops turned over
their secto~ to the Americans. He
said they merely pointed out over
No-Man's Land and said ''Boche-land
Bon soir."
In the attack on Hill SIS, the ma
chine gunners got into such close
fighting that they had to requisition
ammunition twice. The prisoners
captured during that fight said they
had feared the machine gun barrage
more than anything else In the row
OF dead Germans that lay on the top
Of the hill. every body had five or
six bullets in it. bearing witness to
the intensity OF the barrage the 312th
had put over.
