From Herbeviller to the Village Of
Domevre extended the Paris Strass-
burg road. once a fine boulevard, but
fiIled with shell-holes and traps when
we were there. Opposite the Village
Of Domevre was stretch of woods
called the Bots de- Banal, covering
a.bo1It two miles in length and ope In
depth II was a veritable hell-hole.
because the Germans threw gas shells
there once a day, and II was Allied
with old barbed wire placed there by
the French
Alongside the Parts-Strassburg
road ran one of our communication
trenches which connected with our
'front.' line. facing Domevre. The front
line trenches were used as outposts,
and IN some cases there were big gaps
between these posts For instance,
from Herbeviller along the Paris
6trassburg road. the communication
trench already mentioned had no out
post for a distance Of half a milo
The Germans would -plant' snipers
in trees along the Paris-Strassburg
road, and along about dusk they
would get busy. Then the Germans
would send out heavy night patrols
These explanations and incidents
are related just 10 show what the
New York City soldiers found them
solves up against at their first entry
into the war. Now York boys formed
half OF the outposts already men
toned, and French soldiers formed
the other half. Tho French soldiers
were brave, energetic and great good
friends OF the New Workers.. whose
pep" appealed TO them. The French
advised defensive warfare in that
sector, while the American soldiers
Thought they ought 70 so over to Do
neyre and shoot up" the Germans
every night
Meantime, German patrols were nm
usually active. Evidently 1t was the
idea OF the Boche that he could con-
troll no mans land against our diyi-
sion. He would send patrols Of from
twenty- five to forty men numbering
across the space between his line and
ours, and they would shower the
Franco-American outposts with gre
nades and automatic rifle fire Al the
same time he would send gas shells
INTO the Village OF Migneville, where
battalion headquarters Of the 'O5ih
was located.
Gen. Edward r. wlttenmeyer. com
manding our brigade, would utter Wig
orous language whenever no heard OF
the activities OF these patrols. Cpl'
smedberg OF tho 3O5th, who now Is
Brigadier General, felt the same way
about II. Being Intelligence Officer OF
the So5th | drew up a plan for COM
bat patrol. There was little strip OF
woods jutting out from the Paris
strassburg road, and It was directly
in front Of one OF our outposts.
