 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.

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.  American losses were exacerbated by the inexperience of many of the troops, and tactics used during the early phases of the operation. <SEP> The Meuse-Argonne American Cemetery and Memorial is a 130.5 acre World War I cemetery in France.
