Hand to Hand Fighting On French Front Near Pilain
AP dispatch from the Chemin-Des-Dames sector south of Pilain reports heavy bombardment by German forces and a fierce counterattack by French Chausseurs-A-Pied. Despite overwhelming numbers and German barbed wire, mortars, and flame throwers, the French held the line with engineers and reservists, with hand to hand fighting continuing as crews recovered from mud and rain. Six French captives attempted escape and a German surrenderer concealed grenades on his palms before being killed or captured.
