Ludendorff credits Americans with winning the war
Berlin May 25 Field Marshal Ludendorff says America proved the decisive military factor in World War I. He argues France and England would have fallen in 1918 without U.S. reserves rearranging Allied armies. He notes American soldiers were good though training was brief and dismisses Marne as decisive, praising the Argonne-Meuse offensive.
