The Lost Battalion is the name given to nine companies of the United States 77th Division, roughly 554 men, isolated by German forces during World War I after an American attack in the Argonne Forest in October 1918.  Roughly 197 were killed in action and approximately 150 missing or taken prisoner before 194 remaining men were rescued.  They were led by Major Charles White Whittlesey.  On 2 October, the division quickly advanced into the Argonne, under the belief that French forces were supporting the left flank and two American units including the 92nd Division were supporting the right flank.  Unknown to Whittlesey's unit, the French advance had been stalled.  Without this knowledge, the Americans had moved beyond the rest of the Allied line and found themselves completely cut off and surrounded by German forces.  For the next six days, suffering heavy losses, the men of the division were forced to fight off several attacks by the Germans. The Meuse-Argonne Offensive, also known as the Maas-Argonne Offensive and the Battle of the Argonne Forest, was a major part of the final Allied offensive of World War I that stretched along the entire Western Front.  It was fought from 26 September 1918 until the Armistice of 11 November 1918, a total of 47 days.  The Meuse-Argonne Offensive was the largest in United States military history, involving 1.2 million American soldiers.  It was one of a series of Allied attacks known as the Hundred Days Offensive, which brought the war to an end.  The battle cost 28,000 German lives and 26,277 American lives.  It was the largest and bloodiest operation of World War I for the American Expeditionary Force (AEF), which was commanded by General John J. Pershing, and one of the deadliest battles in American history.  American losses were exacerbated by the inexperience of many of the troops, and tactics used during the early phases of the operation.
