Americans Launch Brilliant Attack Near Verdun
The new American assault across a 20 mile front east of the Argonne pressed the line forward two to five kilometers and reached the Kreimhilde line. Wisconsin, Virginia, West Virginia and Pennsylvania troops led the advance under heavy fire with tanks and planes in support. German counterattacks failed as Ludendorff massed guns and sought to shield supply routes, while the Meuse-Meuse area saw intense bombardment and air battles with seven German planes downed.
