Enemy beaten on 30 mile front in major Allied breakthrough
Reporting from the front lines the British and French advances widened the sector from Albert to Amiens. British troops reached Hamelincourt and pushed toward Frivillers while others crossed toward Ervillers and St. Ledger. German positions near Gomicourt and Chateron were disrupted by bombardments and counterattacks faltered, with reports of many German losses and prisoners as Haig’s forces moved forward along the Somme.
