Germans Admit Losing Ground on Several Fronts

British, French, and American forces reportedly gained local advances. German losses included Somme-Py and shifts in the Argonne and Aire Valley theaters. Overnight, heavy artillery duels persisted from the coast to the Meuse as Allied attacks pressed on multiple sectors.
