guns which had been planted Sc
cretly in the vicinity Of Creepy.
Twenty-seven monster shells were
sent into the French capital from
the unheard Of distance OF 1874 miles.
In the meantime the British were
becoming badly exhausted. Reserves
were badly needed. On March 26 q
force of reserve troops was as
sembled from the lines Of communi-
cation, casuals OF all descriptions
and stragglers. The raw American
troops were drawn into this group,
which was placed under the COM
mand Of General Carey and consti-
tuted the British Fifth army.
Carey's force took up the key po-
sition between Hamei and Marceleave
and held the line for several days
against a whitening attack, thereby
saving to the allies the area at
Villers-Bretonneaux and preventing
the German artillery fire from con
trolling Amiens and its vital railway
network effectively.
The turning point came on March
%. The German onslaught lost
momentum and ifs leaders found IL
increasingly difficult to bring up
supplies over the shredded battle
field Of the Somme. The attack
continued until April 8. but in the
end 1t was indecisive.
For the United States the battle
marked the beginning OF acturi par
ticipation in the fighting. During
the height Of the engagement. IN
which approximately 10000 allied
soldiers fell before the German
drive, General Petain, commander In
chief Of the French forces, confer
red with General Pershing and Il
was agreed that the American forces,
though not yet fully trained, should
be moved into quiet sectors temDor-
arily SO the French might rush their
veterans 10 the Somme front.
The threatened separation Of the
British and French forces brought
to the allies the realization that
something must be done to coordin-
ate their fighting machines. After
a series OF conferences General Foch
was chosen generalissimo Of all the
allied troops. bringing the entire
western front under unified control.
