defence was over.
Petain then had both the men and the
guns to hold the positions on the east
bank of the Meuse. He had also deve-
oped the method of counter attack, so
costly to troops which had already made
great sacrifices to gain position which
in their weakened condition they
couldn't hold. He was reducing the bat

this is that Won Falkenhayn was con-
ductlng purely defensive operation, in
tended to make the German positions
in France more secure against an AL
lied attack
The last paragraph of the General
Staffs exposition reads:
ut had not been possible for us up to
the spring of 1916 to close this sally port
War on two fronts had kept a substantial
portion of our forces in the Russian and
Balkan theatres. Only when these forces
had been released could the reduction of
Nerdun be undertaken with this strateric
purpose in view: first to close the French
sally port, SO far as Germany was con-
cerned, and then, in the course of further
operations, to swing the door inward
toward France"
In this last phrase only is there any
lntlmation that Won Falkenhayn expected
to use Verdun as base for an advance
on Paris. Yet, if he didn't, why did he
continue for months his costly effort to
destroy the French bridgehcad east of
the Meuse?
Verdun was never used as a French
sally port for an invasion of German
Lorraine. Metz remained undisturbed in

AS at the Dunajec and in the French

razed and the hillsides we're poughcd

were either killed, wounded or stunned.
But the defence didn't melt away.
Fortunately for the French the ad-
vanced lines were lightly manned.
There were only 100000 French troops
in the Vcrdun sector and they were
evenly distributed over the whole front.

infantry four days, from February 2l
to February 25, to reach the main
French line of defence on the north,
from Samogneux to Forts de Douau-
mont and VauX
When the empty shell of Fort de
Douaumont was taken by the Branden-
burg division on February 25 the Ger
man High Command thought that Yer
dun was won. But on that day the real
French defence of the fortress had
only begun.
The fighting around Verdun divides
itself into several easily distinguishable
phases. The first phase ended on Feb
ruary 25. In the opening five days the
Germans broke through the northern
face of the semicircular bridgehead cast
of the Meuse and the French troops were
drawn in on the eastern and southeastern
faces. Three hundred thousand Germans
were engaged against about 100000
French. Besides their losses in dead and
wounded the French lost between 10000
and 10000 prisoners. But this was the
ordinary cost Of holding line subject
to drum fire. bombardment. The Ger
mans had made an advance averaging
three miles on the whole Eastern front
and at Fort de Douaumont they were in
sight of Verdun.
Petain's arrival was the signal for a
French counter attack. This cleared the
hill on which Fort de Douaumont stood,
