Prince's Rear Guard Yields as Americans Press Marne Front
On July 24 with American forces advancing on the Marne the Crown Prince’s rear guard reportedly withdrew under heavy pressure. Prisoners said units were ordered to stand firm to the last, but Allied assault pushed them back along the front from Jaulgonne toward Chateau Thierry and Fere-en-Tardenois. American units broke a dense German machine gun line and began encircling the foe while reserves concentrated nearby. Marne Farm, an important strategic point, was seized by advancing Americans.
