The Battles of the Marne 1918


  Detail :

 20 July - 2 August 1918. French intelligence reports suggested a weakness in the German position on the Marne and accordingly two British Divisions were ?loaned? to the French to help their attack. The outcome was entirely successful and the Germans were driven back about four miles. The British Divisions (51st Highland and 62nd West Riding) suffered about 6000 casualties
