four machine guns and intermit-

fire of the enemy and the enemy's
artillery opens up on the attacking
American doughboys.

plane and drops a message to the
attacking force.
PHASE TWO.
4. 1t is now found that the en-.
emy machine guns must be silenced

Sergeant York and his squad which
helps to make up the three squads
o the platoon, is ordered to go
around in rear of the enemy to
take the machine guns in rear. The
platoon disappears on the east
flank. At this time an enemy Of
ficer calls for a conference at his
headquarters the little house

3. The American patrol appears
behind the enemy defense position.
Sergeant York can be identified by
his whit helmet. They are seen
chasing two fleeing enemy soldiers.
6. While the patrol is counting
up the enemy prisoners. it is sud
denly fired on with heavy losses.
York Is seen some distance from
his men, who all drop to the
ground and seek cover.
York Immediately opens fire with
his rifle and begins picking off
members of the enemy machine
gun crews. One by one they drop.
Z. AS York's rifle ammunition is
exhausted from the front pockets
OF his belt he is attacked by an
enemy officer with five men using
rifles and bayonets.
York draws his pistol and kills
this group, one after another.
He has now secured the ammuni.
tion from the rear pockets of his
belt and is about to resume his fire
on the machine gunners.
Out from the group Of enemy

prisoners comes the major of the
enemy battalion. York tells him
that he must surrender his men or
he will be the next to die.
The enenmy commander blows his
whistle and the machine-gunners
cease firing and come out with
their arms above their heands and
surrender.
s. York now forms his prisoners
in a column with the American
wounded being carried at the rear
and York places himself at the
front of the column with three
enemy officers.
The column moves toward the
enemy lines. and comes upon other
enemy machine gun nests. When
York threatens to kill the enemy
major unless he orders his men to
surrender. this is done. and York
effects their capture.
q. The group now crosses through
No Mans Land to the American
lines.
Two enemy ambulances now come
on the field and remove their dead
and wounded
PHASE THREE
10. The enemy now occupies the
main defensive position and lays
wire for tank defense.
Now that the machine guns have
been accounted for by Sergeant
York, the American attack is re.
newed, supported by two tanks and
a barrage Of artillery fire.
IL. The attack proceeds by inf!l,
tration in the rear Of the tanks
and is held up temporarily. IS
yards from the enemy trenches.
A smoke screen is laid by bombs.
Two artillery guns gallop up and
go into action.
12.-As the tanks advance one
of them runs upon a mine, which
explodes under the tank.
Both tanks now pierce the enemy
position and The infantry assault
follows through.
13. The house in the enemy lines
is on fire from exploding shells.
One of the tanks smashes
through it.
The enemy is driven from the
position.
