 PREFACE. 
 
 The Council on 9th November, 1920, decided, as a 
 mark of its appreciation, to present to each member of 
 the staff who served in the Great War, or to the next- 
 of-kin of those who died on service, a short history of 
 the war so far as the staff were concerned, with brief 
 particulars of their service. Accordingly the Record 
 of Service which gives effect to this decision has been 
 prepared under my supervision by Mr. V. A. Weeks, 
 B.A. (late Lieut., R. West Kent Rgt.), of my depart- 
 ment. The sketch plans, which show practically every 
 place mentioned in the battle areas, have been drawn 
 by Capt. A. G. Harding, O.B.E. (late R.A.O.C), also 
 of my department. 
 
 Authorities for the statements made have not, as a 
 rule, been given. To do this adequately would have 
 required an elaborate series of footnotes, and these in 
 a simple summary of the facts did not seem to be called 
 for. The narrative and the comments thereon are based 
 for the most part on the despatches of the various 
 commanders-in-chief, the works referred to in the 
 text, and H. C. O'Neill's History of the War, Sir Henry 
 Newbolt's Naval History of the War, H. W. Nevinson's 
 Dardanelles Campaign, E. Dane's British Campaigns 
 in the Near East, and Brig.-Gen. J. H. V. Crowe's 
 General Smuts' Campaign in East Africa. The chapter 
 on the Royal Air Force is based on an official Short 
 History of the R.A.F. [F.S. 136], kindly supplied by the 
 
 Air Ministry.

 As far as practicable the recommendations of the 
 Battles Nomenclature Committee [Cmd. 1138] have 
 been adopted. 
 
 The Record deals only with the Council's staff, but it 
 is not fitting that it should be issued without mention 
 of the two members of the Council who lost their lives 
 on active service, Captain R. M. Sebag-Montefiore, of 
 the Royal East Kent (The Duke of Connaught's Own) 
 (Mounted Rifles), who died at Alexandria on 19th 
 November, 1915, from wounds received in Gallipoli, 
 and Lieut. -Col. Lord Alexander Boteville Thynne, 
 D.S.O., M.P., who was killed in France on 15th 
 September, 1918, whilst commanding a battalion of 
 the Duke of Edinburgh's (Wiltshire Regiment).

 RECORD OF WAR SERVICE 
 
 CHAPTER I. 
 
 Events Leading up to the Great War. 
 
 It would be a long task to refer even in outline to 
 all the causes, direct and indirect, of the Great War 
 and the attempt to do so would raise many con- 
 troversial questions. Here it must suffice to state 
 that the Franco-German War of 1870 had been 
 succeeded by a period of international jealousy 
 and suspicion, and that, so far from abating, 
 these feelings of unrest had spread during the early 
 part of the twentieth century widely throughout 
 Europe. A serious crisis in 1905, leading up to the 
 Algeciras conference, had been followed by another 
 in 1908 when Austria, in defiance of the Treaty of 
 Berlin, annexed Bosnia and Herzegovina, and by a 
 third in 191 1 arising out of the Agadir incident. Each 
 had threatened to lead to war and, although war had 
 been averted, it began to be clear that efforts to 
 maintain peace could not continue to be successful. 
 In most of the chief states there was no inconsiderable 
 number of people who desired war, some in order to 
 unite to their own country people of kindred race or 
 language, others for the sake of territorial or political 
 gain, others in mere self-defence before those plotting 
 against their country became invincible. So deep 
 were the feelings of distrust that any incident might 
 result in a crisis for which no peaceful solution could 
 be found. Such an incident was forthcoming on 28th 
 June, 1914, when the Archduke Francis Ferdinand, 
 heir to the Austrian Empire, was assassinated with 
 his wife while on a visit to Sarajevo, the capital of
 
 Bosnia. The effects of the outrage were not at once 
 apparent, for no public action was taken by Austria 
 until 23rd July. Then, however, it presented to Serbia 
 a peremptory note and demanded a reply by the 
 evening of the 25th. On this note Sir Edward Grey, 
 the Foreign Secretary, remarked in a despatch to 
 the British Ambassador at Vienna that he " had 
 never before seen one State address to another inde- 
 pendent State a document of so formidable a char- 
 acter " and that one of the demands " would be 
 hardly consistent with the maintenance of Serbia's 
 independent sovereignty." ^ Serbia's reply, delivered 
 within the stipulated time, accepted in principle, 
 though with reservations, most of the Austrian 
 demands. This, however, was not considered satis- 
 factory, diplomatic relations were broken off, orders 
 were given for the mobilisation of the army, and on 
 the 28th war was declared against Serbia. Germany 
 supported Austria, while Serbia was supported by 
 Russia, thus bringing in France, the latter's ally. 
 Diplomatic negotiations to avert war or to localise its 
 effects having proved fruitless, Germany on ist August 
 declared war on Russia and France, and on the 6th 
 Austria declared war on Russia. 
 
 Great Britain of course had no direct interest in 
 the quarrel between Austria and Serbia, or even in 
 that between Austria and Russia, but, when other 
 issues were raised and Germany and France were 
 involved, it became vitally affected. The two main 
 questions were the maintenance of the integrity of 
 France and of the neutrality of Belgium. Great 
 Britain was under no treaty obligation to France, 
 but it had been agreed in November, 1912,^ that, if 
 either Government had grave reason to expect an 
 unprovoked attack, or something threatened the 
 general peace, it would immediately discuss whether

 7467], p. 9. » Ibid., p. 57.

 both Governments should act together to prevent 
 aggression and to preserve peace. The German Chan- 
 cellor's suggestion on 29th July that Great Britain 
 should remain neutral on condition that Germany 
 took no territory from France except in her colonies 
 was indignantly rejected, and on 2nd iVugust France 
 was informed that, if the German fleet came into the 
 English Channel or the North Sea to attack the French 
 coasts or shipping, the British fleet would give all the 
 protection in its power. The second question, Belgian 
 neutrality and the respect of that neutrality by all 
 belligerents, was even more important. By the Treaty 
 of London, 1839, Great Britain, Austria, Prussia, 
 France and Russia had agreed that Belgium should 
 form an independent and perpetually neutral state, 
 and that it should be bound to observe such neutrality 
 towards all other states. This treaty had been strictly 
 adhered to during the Franco-German War, and 
 accordingly on 31st July, 1914, when hostilities be- 
 tween France and Germany became imminent, the 
 two countries were asked whether, so long as no other 
 power violated it, they would respect the neutrality 
 of Belgium. France gave the necessary undertaking, 
 but no reply was received from Germany. In fact 
 on 2nd August the latter presented an ultimatum to 
 Belgium demanding facilities for military operations, 
 and on the 4th German troops actually invaded 
 Belgian' territory. On this date Germany was again 
 asked to give the assurance already given by France 
 and was informed that, unless a satisfactory reply was 
 received, Great Britain would take all steps in its 
 power to uphold the neutrality of Belgium. Germany 
 made no reply and accordingly from 11 o'clock on 
 the night of 4th/5th August, 1914, Great Britain 
 was at war with Germany.
 
 CHAPTER II. 
 
 The Western Front, 1914. 
 
 From i8th to 20th July, as part of a test mobilisation, 
 a great naval display had been given at Spithead by 
 the British Fleet at which some 200 vessels, manned 
 by 70,000 officers and men, were present. After the 
 manoeuvres it was thought advisable, as affairs in 
 Europe appeared so threatening, that the vessels 
 should not disperse. Consequently at the outbreak 
 of war the fleet was fully mobilised, ready at once for 
 active service. The army was not mobilised until 
 3rd August, when it became clear that Germany was 
 about to invade Belgium. 
 
 War between Great Britain and Germany having 
 been declared, an Expeditionary Force, consisting at 
 first of only four divisions, with some cavalry and a 
 few aeroplanes, was sent to the assistance of the 
 French. The troops embarked chiefly at South- 
 ampton, the bulk of them crossing to Boulogne or 
 Havre on the nights of 12th and 13th August. They 
 concentrated at Amiens and between 17th and 20th 
 August were assembled under the command of Sir 
 John French to the south of Maubeuge. 
 
 Mons and the Retreat. 
 
 By the morning of Sunday, the 23rd, they were 
 in position at Mons with a front of about twenty 
 miles on the extreme left of the Allies, the ist Corps, 
 commanded by Sir Douglas Haig, being to the east 
 of the town, the 2nd Corps, under Sir Horace Smith- 
 Dorrien, holding the town itself and the line to the 
 west, and the cavalry, under Sir Edmund AUenby, 
 being mostly in reserve. 
 
 During the morning the Germans attacked with 
 five corps and three cavalry divisions, thus out- 
 numbering our men by more than two to one. Although 
 the enemy suffered heavy losses the attack achieved
 
 6 
 
 only a moderate success, the British 2nd Corps, which 
 was chiefly involved, retiring, late in the day, to 
 prepared positions in rear. Towards evening, however. 
 Sir John French learned that Namur, thirty-five miles 
 to the east, had fallen on the 22nd, that, in conse- 
 quence, the French on his right had retired and that 
 his left was being outflanked. In addition therefore 
 to being outnumbered in front he was in grave danger 
 of being surrounded on both flanks, so that immediate 
 retreat was essential. This began the next day, the 
 direction taken being roughly south-west. The ist 
 Corps retired to the east of Bavai and thence through 
 Landrecies, Venerolles, La Fere, and Villers-Cotterets, 
 while the route of the 2nd Corps lay to the west of 
 Bavai, and through Le Quesnoy, Le Cateau, St. 
 Ouentin, Ham, Noyon and Compiegne. At Betz on 
 1st September, the two corps were re-united and 
 crossing the Marne next day fell back towards the 
 Seine. 
 
 Apart from an attack at Landrecies on the night of 
 25th/26th August, when the Guards drove off with 
 heavy losses a force which advanced through the 
 Foret de Mormal, the ist Corps was not seriously 
 molested, but the 2nd Corps was much harassed. 
 As his men were too weary to continue their march. 
 Sir Horace felt it necessary, in order to gain time, to 
 disregard the orders he had received not to fight, and 
 on the 26th near Le Cateau turned and faced the 
 enemy. Accordingly a line was formed to the south 
 of the Cambrai — Le Cateau road with the 5th Division 
 on the right, immediately west of the latter town, the 
 3rd in the centre and the 4th on the left, the whole 
 front measuring some nine or ten miles. The fighting 
 lasted from dawn until well into the afternoon when 
 the 5tli Division, having lost many of its guns, was 
 forced back and the two other divisions had to con- 
 form. The retirement in some disorder gave rise at 
 the time to disconcerting rumours in England but
 
 7 
 these, as usual, greatly exaggerated the facts, and, 
 although there was much confusion, the retreat never 
 degenerated into a rout. 
 
 The mobilisation of H.M. Forces led to the calling 
 up from the Council's staff of 436 naval reservists, 
 870 army reservists and 590 members of the Terri- 
 torial force. During August and September eighteen 
 of the staff joined the Navy and 1664 the Army, so 
 that, after two months of war, the staff on service 
 numbered 3578. There were casualties amongst these 
 from the first, for on 23rd August George Baker {4th 
 R. Fus., Asylums) and Lance-Corp. E. W. Stretton 
 (2nd R. Ir. Rgt., Tram.) were reported as missing, on 
 the 24th John Yates (ist R. Scots Fus., Tram.) died 
 of wounds, and on the 26th J. A. Goodwin (R.F.A., 
 Tram.) was killed at Le Cateau, while before the end of 
 the month A. G. Mitchell (ist Lines, Ch. Engr.) died 
 of wounds and W. J. Thynne (ist E. Surr., Tram.) was 
 missing. P. S. T. Marshall (ist Lines, Tram.) died on 
 nth September of wounds received near Mons, Corp. 
 Frederick Lait (R.G.A., Educ.) on the same date of 
 wounds received towards the end of the retreat, and 
 S. C. Good (4th Dragoon Gds., Tram.) on 2nd October 
 of wounds received on 3rd September near Lagny. 
 Randall Kirk (Coldstr. Gds., Asjdums), wounded and 
 taken prisoner near Mons, died at Laon on 14th 
 September. 
 
 The first member of the Council's staff to win a 
 decoration was Sergt. A. J. Tilney (4th Drag. Gds., 
 Clerk) to whom was awarded the Croix de Guerre, 
 During the retreat towards the end of August he 
 was accidentally left behind by his regiment. While 
 making liis way back he rescued a wounded comrade, 
 taking him on his horse, and later picked up a straggler. 
 Eventually he fell in with some French troops with 
 whom he remained some days before he was able to 
 rejoin his regiment.
 
 Battle of the Marne, 1914. 
 
 The German forces advancing from Mons to the 
 Marne were commanded by Von Kluck, who appeared 
 to think that our troops had been so roughly handled 
 that for the time being they might be ignored. Accord- 
 ingly in the early days of September, instead of con- 
 tinuing his advance to the south and south-west, he 
 turned to the south-east from the neighbourhood of 
 Amiens, and crossed the Marne between Meaux and 
 Chateau-Thierry seemingly with the intention of 
 attacking the left of what he considered to be the 
 main body of the Allies. He thus exposed his right 
 flank, guarded only by comparatively small detach- 
 ments, to the full assaults of the British and of a 
 French army, commanded by General Maunoury, on 
 their left. These assaults proved successful and, in 
 the face of vigorous opposition, the British by 7th 
 September had advanced to Coulommiers on the 
 Grand Morin, and by the 8th to the Petit Morin, both 
 these streams being tributaries of the Marne which 
 was crossed on the 9th to the west of Chateau-Thierry. 
 Von Kluck was now in considerable danger and a 
 general retreat of the Germans to the Aisne was 
 ordered. This retreat was followed up by the British 
 through Oulchy and Fere-en-Tardenois, and on the 
 12th they were again in touch with the main German 
 forces. 
 
 The operations from 6th September onwards, which 
 formed a part of important engagements by several 
 French armies, culminating in General Foch's success- 
 ful attack at St. Gond, 40 miles to the east, are usually 
 known as the first Battle of the Marne. By it the 
 German advance was definitely checked and, indeed, 
 pushed back for thirty miles and the threat on Paris 
 was removed, so that it is rightly regarded as one of 
 the decisive battles of the war.
 
 Battle of the Aisne, 1914. 
 
 The passage of the Aisne, on a front of fifteen miles 
 between Bourg on the east and Soissons on the west, 
 was forced on 13th September. This was a difficult 
 task, for the river is both broad and deep and, as many 
 of the bridges had been blown up, some troops had to 
 cross on rafts or pontoons, others on the girders of 
 the broken bridges, and all this under continuous 
 fire. Facing the British and three or four miles to the 
 north of the river was a line of chalk hills on the 
 summit of which was the Chemin-des-Dames.' As 
 the scene of prolonged fighting throughout the war, 
 this was destined to become one of the most famous 
 positions on the whole front. The ist Corps on the 
 right advanced nearly to the top of the ridge, the 2nd 
 Corps in the centre near Vailly was not so successful, 
 while the 3rd Corps (which had been formed under 
 Sir WiUiam Pulteney towards the end of the retreat 
 from Mons) could do little more than hold its ground 
 immediately across the river. Here both sides dug 
 themselves in and, in spite of attacks and counter- 
 attacks, the line remained unaltered for many months. 
 After i8th September, although local encounters were 
 frequent, the general fighting died down and early 
 in October the British were relieved by the French 
 and moved northwards to the flank of the Allied 
 advance. 
 
 The casualties amongst the Council's staff were 
 Alfred Luker (Northld. Fus., Asylums) killed on gtli 
 September at the Mame, while those killed or missing 
 at the Aisne were: 13th September, E. S. Harrison 
 (ist R.W. Kent, Tram.); 14th September, C. A. 
 Dickens (4th R. Fus., Asylums), Lance-Corp. S. 
 Andrews (R.W. Surr., Parks), F. A. G. Daysh (ist 
 Coldstr. Gds., Housing), Lance-Corp. James ^^'alker

 Coldstr. Gds., Tram.), I. W. Bradford (ist Coldstr. 
 Gds., Housing) died as a prisoner of war on 21st 
 October of wounds received on 14th September. 
 
 Antwerp. 
 
 In the latter part of August the main Belgian army 
 had withdrawn northwards to the neighbourhood of 
 Antwerp but, using this as a base, it continued by 
 frequent sallies to harass the enemy. The Germans 
 were thus compelled to retain in the district troops 
 which could have been more usefully employed else- 
 where, and accordingly, at the end of September, 
 after several weeks of desultory warfare, the reduction 
 of the Belgian position was seriously imdertaken. 
 The defence fared badly against heavy artillery of 
 the kind which had been so successful at Liege and 
 Namur, and the Allies were appealed to for assistance. 
 The only troops immediately available were a brigade 
 of Royal Marines and two brigades of the R.N.V.R., 
 which were despatched to Antwerp in the early part 
 of October. A breach had already been made in the 
 outer defences of the town and, as the Germans were 
 greatly superior in numbers, no striking success was 
 probable. The British forces, however, did good 
 service by aiding the Belgians in holding up the 
 attack for several days, and also by covering the 
 Belgian withdrawal from the town. In this fighting 
 Sergt. T. York (Educ.) was killed on the 6th, Percy 
 Haggis (Arch.) on the 7th, and W. F. Forse (Tram-.) 
 on gth October. The 7th Division and some cavalry 
 landing at Zeebrugge covered the retreat along the 
 coast.
 
 IX 
 
 La BassSe and Armentieres. 
 
 Early in October, when a dead-lock had been reached 
 on the Aisne, Sir John French suggested that, if his 
 forces were transferred to the left of the Allied line, 
 his Hnes of communication would be much shortened 
 and he might be in a position to outflank the Germans. 
 General Joffre consented and, as already mentioned, 
 the British were relieved by the French and moved 
 northward. Stated thus the problem which con- 
 fronted the British commander appears simple enough 
 to need no comment, but it must be remembered 
 that his forces numbered about 100,000 men with 
 horses, guns and baggage. One di\'ision alone, con- 
 taining at full strength about 19,000 men with some 
 5,600 horses, 75 guns and 650 wagons, occupies in 
 column of route about ten miles of road and takes 
 three hours to pass a given point, while to transport 
 it by rail about 90 trains are needed. It was therefore 
 a formidable task, requiring much skill and organisa- 
 tion on the part of a staff unpractised in the handling 
 of large bodies of men, to disengage so large a force 
 from a vigilant and energetic enemy, and to convey it 
 across the lines of communication of other troops. This 
 intricate movement was, however, accomplished with- 
 out mishap and by the nth of the month the 2nd Corps 
 was operating near La Bassee with the 3rd Corps on its 
 left to the east of St. Omer. With much hard fighting 
 and in spite of a strong resistance the line slowly 
 advanced eastward until, towards the end of the 
 month, the two corps were held up to the east of 
 Bethune, Laventie and Armentieres in positions which 
 were maintained with Uttle or no alteration almost to 
 the end of the war. 
 
 In this fighting B. A. Edhn (2nd Bedfords, Asylums)

 was awarded the D.C.M. for an attempt near Neuve 
 Chapelle on 5th November in which he lost his life, 
 to rescue a wounded non-commissioned officer. Cor- 
 poral O. J. T. Smith (Yorks. L.I., L.F.B.) died on 7th

 on 22nd October. 
 
 Battles of Ypres, 1914. 
 The ist Corps which also detrained at St. Omer, 
 but later than the 3rd Corps, pressed on to the east of 
 Ypres, where it took up a position on the left [i.e., to 
 the north) of the 4th Corps. The latter had been 
 despatched from England to aid the Belgians but, 
 arriving too late to alter the course of events at Ant- 
 werp, had, after the fall of the city, retired in a south- 
 westerly direction along the coast. An advance was 
 made to the line Zandvoorde — Gheluvelt — Zonnebeke 
 — Langemarck (see map opposite) with the intention of 
 striking to the south-east at Menin, an important 
 point in the German communications, and to the 
 north-east through Poelcappelle and Passchendaele in 
 the direction of Bruges. The Germans, however, had 
 collected great numbers of troops in this district, 
 partly in order to make a diversion and so relieve the 
 pressure on their hne further south, but chiefly with 
 the object of breaking through and of capturing 
 Calais and the adjacent coast-line and so hampering 
 the British bases of supply. The British were out- 
 numbered in the proportion of three or four to one 
 and, instead of advancing, found themselves hard 
 put to it to hold their ground. 
 
 Ypres, which in this way came to be the scene for 
 four years of such desperate fighting and obstinate 
 bravery, both in attack and defence, as can scarcely 
 have been surpassed in all history, was before the war 
 an ancient and beautiful but decayed' city of 17,000 
 inhabitants. Situated in an extensive and fertile
 
 14 
 
 plain it had become a centre for agriculture instead 
 of for wea\dng, its former industry, and it was also a 
 rail and road centre of importance. Its historical monu- 
 ments included the famous Cloth Hall and Belfry, 
 dating from the 13th century, the finest Gothic public 
 building in the country, the 13th-century Church of 
 St. Martin (formerly the Cathedral), the 14th-century 
 Town Hall and numerous quaint and picturesque 
 houses of the Renaissance. All were destroyed, and 
 the town during its four years partial siege was so 
 completely wrecked that when the enemy was at 
 length driven off not a house, scarcely even a room, 
 was habitable. In its defence 300,000 British and 
 Dominion troops died and a million were wounded.^ 
 
 To the north, east and south the ground rises, but 
 it is only on the south, near Messines and Wytschaete, 
 that any really considerable hills exist. There the 
 highest parts, 260 feet high, are nearly 200 feet above 
 the level of the plain, while to the east the average 
 rise is only about 80 or 100 feet, and to the north 
 it is even less. In modern warfare in so flat a 
 country the possession of the higher ground confers 
 great advantages upon the side which hold it. First 
 and foremost they have very much better opportu- 
 nities for observing the movements of their opponents 
 and the effect of their own shell-lire. Secondly they 
 can secretly mass troops on the reverse side of the 
 slopes, and so launch surprise attacks without warning 
 to their opponents. Finally, and this is not the least 
 important benefit in a marshy area, they can drain 
 their trenches more or less effectively, and thus 
 prevent them from becoming so many muddy pools 
 or water-courses. It was for possession of these ridges, 
 therefore, that the fiercest fighting took place, and a 
 brief outline of the opening phases of this struggle 
 will now be attempted. 
 
 As already stated, the British had advanced to 
 
 ' Findlay Muirhead, Belgium and the Western Front, p. 38.
 
 15 
 
 the line Zandvoorde — Gheluvelt— Zonnebeke — Lange- 
 marck which was reached about 20th October, although 
 isolated advances were made even later at different 
 parts. After much fighting, which daily increased in 
 severity, the main German assault opened on 29th 
 October. In face of the overwhelming attacks on 
 that and the next day Gheluvelt, Reutel and Zonne- 
 beke were lost and the Une was withdrawn on the 
 average about one mile to Messines, Hollebeke and 
 Klein ZiUebeke. On the 31st the famous counter- 
 attack by the 2nd Worcesters at a very critical time 
 recovered much of the ground up to Gheluvelt, but 
 further south Messines fell and Wytschaete was 
 threatened. On ist November the Germans developed 
 their success and captured the whole of the Messines- 
 Wytschaete ridge, the British retiring to Wulver- 
 ghem. After this the fighting on the British front 
 slackened for some days, the brunt of the attacks being 
 borne by the French and Belgians to the north. On 
 nth November, however, their sector was once more 
 ablaze for, after a terrific bombardment lasting several 
 hours, the attack culminated in an assault by the 
 Prussian Guard, aided by troops of the line, along 
 the Ypres-Menin road. This was almost successful, 
 for the line was pierced in several places, but the 
 advance was stemmed by the 2nd Oxford and Bucks 
 L.I., the 1st Northamptons, the Connaught Rangers 
 and others, and a new line formed some distance to 
 the rear.^ Wytschaete, which had changed hands 
 several times since the beginning of the month, now 
 finally passed into the possession of the Germans. 
 This day's attack proved to be the final attempt by 
 the enemy to break through, and the British were 
 therefore able to consolidate their position on the 
 line of St. Eloi — Hooge— Frezenberg — Langemarck, 
 As the result of three weeks' desperate fighting, 
 
 ' The enemy's losses were enormous, those of the Prussian Guard 
 alone in killed, wounded and missing amounting to nearly 7,000.
 
 i6 
 
 the Germans, with the loss of 150,000 men, had suc- 
 ceeded in advancing at the most a distance of four 
 miles on a front of about fifteen. It is true that, 
 especially from the east round to the south, they had 
 secured positions which enabled them to overlook 
 and even to enfilade the British lines, both to the 
 south and south-east of Ypres and to the north-east 
 of Armentieres, but they had definitely failed in their 
 attempt to break through to the Channel coast or 
 even in their subsidiary effort to capture Ypres. 
 
 On 2ist October Sergt. A. J. Toole (2nd Drag. Gds., 
 Educ.) was killed near Zonnebeke, and Charles 
 Walker (R.F.A., Tram.) at some place unknown; on 
 23rd October, Francis Greygoose (2nd K.R.R., Tram.) 
 near Pilkem; E. S. Moth (3rd Rif. Bde., Asylums) 
 died of wounds on the 25th; on 30th October, W. R. 
 Henderson (ist Dragoons, Asylums) and T. H. Broom 
 (ist Life Gds., L.F.B.) were missing, and Walter Bell 
 and Lance-Corp. M. M. Humphreys, both of ist S. 
 Wales Bord. and Asylums, were killed near Gheluvelt; 
 on 31st October, Lance-Corp. Daniel Reilly (ist R. W. 
 Surr., Tram.) was killed, W. Curtis (ist R. W. Surr., 
 Parks), W. J. Basterfield (ist R. W. Surr., Educ.) and 
 A. G. Ferryman (2nd K.R.R., Tram.) were missing 
 near Gheluvelt, and H. J. F, White (2nd Life Gds., 
 Tram.) was missing near Messines. It was on this last 
 date that the 14th Londons won their laurels near 
 Messines, the first occasion when a Territorial battalion 
 had fought as a complete unit by the side of the Regular 
 Army. The killed or missing included R. T. M. Wyllie 
 and M. S. Bryce (Arch.) and A. B. C. Sarll (Educ), 
 while Lance-Corp. James Carey (Arch.) died a few 
 days later as a prisoner of war of wounds received on 
 that date. 
 
 The casualties in November were: ist November,

 Hicks (2nd Drag. Gds., Asylums) wounded and taken 
 prisoner near Messines died at Ghent on 9th December. 
 
 Fighting in Winter of 1914-15. 
 After the Battles of Ypres the fighting died down 
 for some months into ordinary trench warfare with 
 its unremitting watch and guard even in the quietest 
 sectors, with its mud and shme and vermin, with its 
 patrols in No Man's Land, with its nightly ration 
 parties, working parties and burying parties, with 
 its continual casualties from shell, bomb, mine and 
 sniper, with its sudden bombardments and raids and 
 minor attacks, with its hours of cold and wet, boredom 
 and discomfort, punctuated by minutes of deadly 
 peril. The casualties included W. H. Ayton (R. W. 
 Surr., Tram.) killed on 17th December in a British 
 attack at Le Touquet to the north of Armentieres, 
 Corp. W. H. Cowan (Scots Gds., Educ.) on the i8th 
 in a raid near Rouges Bancs to the east of Laventie, 
 C.Q.M.S. G. Malcolm (ist Gren. Gds., Educ.) on the

 Western Front, 1915. 
 
 Although the opening months of 1915 were not 
 marked by any important fighting minor engagements 
 were frequent and casualties heavy. The latter 
 included O. S. Dawson (ist Cameronians, Asylums) 
 killed near Bois Grenier on 6th January and A. E. 
 Wilton and F. W. Clarke, both of the ist Coldstream 
 Gds. and the Stores Department, killed in a German 
 attack at Cuinchy on the 25th, while on the same date 
 William Maxim (R.F.A., Estates and Vain.) died of 
 sjmcope at Zevecote. On 4th February Sergt. H. W. 
 E. Jarratt (2nd Coldstr. Gds., Educ.) was killed near 
 Givenchy, on the 8th Joseph Huggins (3rd R. Fus., 
 Tram.) near Ypres, and E. H. Palmer (2nd Essex, 
 Tram.) at Le Gheer in Ploegsteert Wood, on the nth 
 Corporal H. T. Cordery (ist Life Gds., Asylums) 
 probably near La Bassee and on the 22nd Lieut. 
 H. F. Heatly, B.Sc. (Yorks., attached 2nd E. Lanes, 
 Educ). Lance-Corp. W. J. Mott (ist R. W. Surr., 
 Tram.) was killed on 9th March and on the loth 
 T. G. Pitt (ist Life Gds., Tram.) died at Boulogne of 
 wounds received near La Bassee on i6th February. 
 Capt. J. H. Stokes (R. W. Rents, attached R. Berks, 
 Educ), one of the first to be awarded the newly in- 
 stituted decoration of the M.C., died at Boulogne on 
 22nd March of wounds received on 13th February. G. 
 E. Romer (2nd E. Surr., Tram.) was killed at Ypres 
 on 25th March, and A. E. Mears (R.F.A., Comp.) died 
 at St. Omer on the 28th of meningitis. Corp. E. S. 
 Carpenter (6th Lond., Educ.) was killed on 21st April 
 near Cuinchy, and D. Angus (2nd Warw., Tram.) was 
 missing a few days later. A. Seal (2nd vScots Gds., 
 Asylums) died on 15th May of illness.

 Neuve Chapelle. 
 
 During the fighting of October, 1914, by the 3rd 
 Corps (see p. 11) the village of Neuve Chapelle, 
 guarding the Aubers ridge, had changed hands several 
 times but remained finally in the possession of the 
 Germans. In March, 1915, in order to test the spirit 
 of our troops after the losses of the preceding six 
 months and so that all ranks and all arms might 
 obtain experience of the offensive in trench warfare, 
 it was decided to attack the place. Accordingly at 8 
 o'clock in the morning of loth March, after a heavy 
 bombardment by 300 guns, British and Indian troops 
 attacked on a front of about 2,000 yards; at the same 
 time demonstrations on each flank kept the enemy 
 occupied. On the right of the main attack the advance 
 was at once successful, but on the left it was held up 
 for a time by broad belts of uncut wire. However, by 
 noon the village had been seized and during the 
 afternoon our troops debouched to the east, where 
 they were held up at the Bois du Biez and the Moulin 
 du Pietre. Heavy mists on the nth and 12th, while 
 preventing a further advance, enabled the Germans to 
 bring up reinforcements for several counter-attacks, 
 but these were all beaten off. (See map on p. 18). 
 
 For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty, 
 especially on the nth. Staff Sergt. W. C. Minchin 
 (4th Seaf. Highdrs., Arch.) was awarded the D.C.M., 
 the official notice stating that " he was always to the 
 fore when volunteers were required for arduous and 
 dangerous work, leaving cover on more than one 
 occasion voluntarily to take the place of wounded 
 stretcher-bearers. ' ' 
 
 Our gains were the village and 3,000 yards of the 
 enemy's position to a depth of 1,000 yards. The 
 casualties were nearly 13,000 and included Sergt. H. 
 J. Stevens (2nd Durham I.. I., Educ.) killed on the 
 loth in some subsidiary fighting at Houplines near
 
 21 
 
 Armentieres, C. E. Russell (ist Grenadier Gds., Educ.) 
 on the loth or nth, Sergt. A. E. Coster (Border, Tram.), 
 A. F. Samuels (2nd Yorks., Tram.) and J. D. Hale (2nd 
 Yorks, Housing) on the 12th, and H. Gostling (2nd 
 Midd., Tram.) on the 14th. L. Foy (13th Lond., 
 Tram.) died at Boulogne on 5th April of wounds 
 received on 12th March. 
 
 Hill 60. 
 The fighting at Hill 60, which lasted for a fortnight 
 or more from 17th April, may be taken as an example 
 of the attacks made by each side with varying suc- 
 cess upon points up and down the line which were, or 
 were held to be, of importance. This modest feature is 
 a spoil-heap, rather more than 2I miles to the south- 
 east of Ypres, by the side of the Ypres-Comines rail- 
 way. At the most only fifty feet high, it was useful as an 
 observation post, and so, at dask on the evening of 17th 
 April, after the explosion of several mines, it was 
 rushed by the ist R. W. Kents and the 2nd Scottish 
 Borderers. By the next morning the Germans had 
 recovered part of the crest from which, however, 
 during the night of the iSth/igth they were again 
 driven by the 2nd W. Ridings and the 2nd Yorks L.I. 
 For some time, in spite of heavy bombardments and 
 numerous counter-attacks, the hill, defended by the 
 1st E. Surreys, the ist Bedfords and the 9th Londons, 
 remained with the British. In the early part of May 
 the Germans renewed their attacks, this time with 
 poison gas, against which our men were not then pro- 
 tected. One such attack on the ist failed, but a second 
 on the 5th was more successful, and the main part of 
 the hill had to be given up. 
 
 Battles of Ypres, 1915. 
 In the first Battles of Ypres the Germans concen- 
 trated on the line to the east and south-east of the 
 city, but in the second they attacked chiefly the sector 
 to the north-east. The assault opened on 22nd April,
 
 23 
 
 1915, with a discharge of poison gas against the trenches 
 at, and to the north-west of, Langemarck held by 
 French Colonial troops. This was the first occasion on 
 which such gas had been used, at all events on a con- 
 siderable scale, the troops were quite unprepared, and 
 those that survived fled in terror. A gap, several miles 
 wide, was made in the line and, if the enemy had 
 properly exploited the success purchased by ignoring 
 the conventions of civilised warfare, the position of 
 the Allies would have been most serious. The Germans, 
 however, paused to consolidate their gains, and the 
 Canadians, who formed the left of the British line next 
 to the French, had time to defend their flank and even 
 to make a counter-attack. Isolated detachments were 
 hurried up as reinforcements, and by the morning of 
 the 23rd the gap to the left of the Canadians had been 
 somehow bridged by a line in rear of the original 
 position. Part of the area abandoned was regained by 
 counter-attacks, but eventually the loss of St. Julien, 
 Pilkem Ridge, Langemarck and Bixschoote had to be 
 accepted, and a new line was formed just to the east 
 of Wieltje and Boesinghe. At the same time the 
 dangerous projection which was thus formed to the 
 north-east was given up. The latter movement was 
 completed by 4th May, and on the 8th a fierce attack 
 broke out on the sector to the south of Wieltje. The 
 line was pierced at Wieltje and near Frezenberg, but 
 the former was recaptured and at the latter a new line 
 was formed to the west. A German attack on the 24th 
 near Bellewaarde and another at the end of the month 
 near Hooge were equally fruitless. 
 
 The fighting died down with the Allies holding the 
 line St. Eloi — Hooge — Wieltje — Boesinghe (seep. 21). 
 On the north and north-east the Germans had advanced, 
 at the most, two miles nearer Ypres and had secured 
 positions overlooking the town, but their efforts to 
 capture it had failed and were now finally abandoned. 
 The casualties included F. H. Stanton (12th Lond.,
 
 23 
 
 Arch.) on the 24th, and George Hood (2nd D. of Corn- 
 wall's L.I., Tram.) on 28th April, both killed near 
 St. Julien, while on the 29th Lance-Corp. J. T. Pascoe 
 (ist Somerset L.I., Tram.) died near Vlamertinghe 
 and M. H. Woodhead (Middlx., Ch. Engr.) at Boulogne 
 of wounds which they had received probably in this 
 district. On 3rd May John Kirk wood (Educ.) and E. 
 W. Baldwin (Pub. Cont.), both of the 5th Londons, 
 were killed to the south of St. Julien and A. A. Rid- 
 lington (2nd Buffs, Tram.) was killed probably to the 
 north-east of that village. On the 4th Lance-Corp. 
 C. W. H. Juniper (2nd Essex, Tram.) was killed near 
 St. Jean and on the 8th C. L. Rizzi (12th Lond., Arch.) 
 probably near Frezenberg. W. F. West (5th Lond., 
 Educ.) died on 12th May of wounds received near St. 
 Julien on 25th April. On 13th May John Pearce (ist 
 Rif. Bde., Comp.) and W. C. R. Boughton (5th Lond., 
 Educ.) were killed near Wieltje and Corporal G. Guyver 
 (Tram.) and H. L. J. Christiansen (Parks), both of the 
 loth R. Hussars, and Lance-Corp. Benjamin Hambly 
 (2nd Life Gds., Asylums) near the Ypres-Roulers road. 
 G. A. Jenkins (12th Lancers, Asylums) was wounded 
 on the 14th probably at the same place and died at 
 Hazebrouck on the 17th. Sergt. A. J. Shepherd (4th 
 R. Fus., Tram.) was killed near St. Eloi on the 20th, 
 and on the 24th Lieut. Thomas Roberts (Cheshires, 
 Educ), Walter Everitt (4th Drag. Gds., Tram.), Lance- 
 Corp. F. G. Grifhn (3rd R. Fus., Tram.) and W. T. 
 Ellner (3rd R. Fus., Tram.), all in front of Ypres. 
 George Moore (2nd E. Surr., Tram.) was killed on the 
 28th and on the same date Lance-Corp. Sidney Clark 
 (3rd R. Fus., Tram.) died of wounds received at Ypres 
 on the 8th. Edward Moore (4th Huss., Tram.) died at 
 Dublin on loth January, 1916, from the effects of a 
 wound received in this sector on 24th May, 1915. 
 
 Aubers Ridge and Festuhert. 
 Early in May the French took the offensive 
 between Loos and the Vimy Ridge to the north of
 
 24 
 
 Arras and, in order to engage the enemy's attention, 
 the British on 9th May opened an attack on a front of 
 about ten miles between Laventie and Richebourg 
 I'Avoue. In the north near Rouges Bancs the 13th 
 Londons seized a mine crater and several lines of 
 trenches beyond, and in the south the 2nd R. Munster 
 Fus. captured some trenches near the Rue du Bois. 
 The rest of the attack failed and these two battalions, 
 being unsupported on their flanks, had to withdraw. 
 Further attacks on the night of I5th/i6th May at 
 Richebourg I'Avoue and Festubert were less unsuc- 
 cessful but, though the operation continued for several 
 days, the total gains were negligible for, apart from 
 the casualties inflicted on the enemy, an advance of 
 a few hundred yards in so flat a country was of no 
 advantage. 
 
 The Germans seem to have had warning of the 
 attack and to have been fully prepared for it, and, 
 owing to the demands for guns and ammunition at 
 Ypres, our artillery preparation was far from being 
 effective. It is therefore not surprising that the 
 casualties in this, the first engagement in which 
 Territorial and New Army units were employed on a 
 considerable scale, were very heavy. On the first day 
 alone they exceeded 12,000, most of the battalions 
 engaged losing over half their effectives. This at the 
 time seemed a very heavy proportion, but later such 
 losses became so frequent as scarcely to arouse com- 
 ment. The undermentioned members of the Council's 
 staff were killed on 9th May: V. J. Macartney (Comp.), 
 H. C. C. Whitwell (Solr.) and F. M. Macrae (Educ.) all 
 of the 13th Londons near Rouges Bancs, W. H. Ferry 
 (ist Northamptons, Tram.), John Whittam (Solr.) 
 and Sergt. William Keys (Educ.) both of the 4th 
 Seaforth Highrs. near Rouges Bancs, James Bailey 
 (2nd R. Suss., Educ.) at Richebourg I'Avoue, W. G. 
 Dickens (24th Lond., Tram.) near the Rue du Bois, 
 Sergt. H. J. Lock (2nd Middx., Tram.), and John Tott
 
 as 
 (2nd Cameronians, Tram.). Albert Forse (24th Lond., 
 Tram.) died on the loth of wounds received on the 
 9th. Joseph Gray (ist Lond., Tram.) was killed on 
 the loth and Lance-Corp. A. E. Keeling, B.Sc. (7th 
 Lond., Educ.) on the i6th near Festubert. On the 
 same day and probably at the same place Lance-Corp. 
 George Cox (2nd R. W. Surr., Tram.) and Corporal 
 Herbert Parker (8th Lond., Educ.) were also killed, 
 and on the 17th J. E, Petherick (13th Lond., Comptr.) 
 died of wounds received near Rouges Bancs on the 9th. 
 On the i8th W. A. V. Luckhurst (7th Lond., Tram.), 
 H. F. Buckby (4th Cam. Highrs., Educ.) and Lance- 
 Corp. Edward Carey (ist Irish Gds., Housing) were 
 killed near Festubert. C. E. Pearson (15th Lond., 
 Solr.) died on the 23rd of wounds received on the 20th. 
 Lieut, H. E. Handley (Educ.) was killed on the 24th 
 and Lance-Corp. G. T. Boxall (Educ), Lance-Corp. 
 H. S. Burton (Educ), Lance-Corp. Frederick Rushton 
 (Tram.), Lance-Corp. T. S. Waterhouse (Tram.), 
 J. C. Terrett (Educ), 1. H. Dibble (Educ), A. J. 
 Hammond (Educ), R. J. H. Maley (Educ), V. K. 
 Mallpress (Educ) and H. C. Turner (Estates and 
 Vain.) on the 25th, all these falling at Givenchy 
 with the 23rd Londons. On the same day and at 
 the same place were killed W. S. Curtis (Educ.) of 
 the 15th and R. C. Beale (Stores), Archibald Herriott 
 (Tram.), Corporal George Klein (Tram.), of the 24th 
 Londons. Those in the 23rd Londons killed on the 
 26th included Douglas Waterland (Educ), J. L. Aubury 
 (Tram.), Arthur Bickmore (Tram.), F. M. Carson 
 (Educ), and H. G. Pugh (Educ). Corp. A. E. W. 
 Chappell (24th Lond., Arch.) was killed on the 26th 
 and W. Allan (ist R. W. Surr., Tram.) died on the 
 27th of wounds received the day before. 
 
 Summer 0/1915. 
 The summer of 1915 was taken up with various 
 local encounters which led to no more definite result 
 than the occasional gain or loss of a trench. Thus on
 
 26 
 
 15th June about eight battalions attacked opposite 
 Givenchy; some failed to reach their objective and 
 the others suffered such heavy casualties that they 
 were unable to maintain themselves in the captured 
 trenches. Trenches captured at Hooge on i6th June 
 were retaken by the Germans with the aid of liquid 
 fire on 30th July, and again captured by us on 9th 
 August. 
 
 On a date in July Staff-Sergt. N. Mapham (R.A.V.C, 
 Educ), in charge of some N.C.O.'s and men, was 
 ordered to entrain at Bethune a large number of sick 
 and wounded horses. There was a two hours' wait 
 for the train and during all this time the station was 
 heavily shelled. In these trying circumstances and 
 in spite of many casualties he successfully carried out 
 this difficult operation, and for his gallantry was 
 awarded the D.C.M. 
 
 In the general warfare during the middle of 1915 
 J. J, Shrimpton (H.M.S. Vernon, Tram.) was killed 
 on 23rd May near Dunkirk while employed in connec- 
 tion with some naval guns which were in use on shore. 
 On 8th June J. H. Rowe (i6th Lond., Tram.) died at 
 Vlamertinghe of wounds received the previous day in

 Loos and Hulluch. 
 In September, the French decided, in conjunction 
 with a great attack in Champagne, to renew their 
 offensive against the Vimy Ridge, and the British 
 were asked to co-operate by attacking between Lens 
 and the La Bassee Canal (see plan p. 18). The pre- 
 liminary bombardment occupied four days and, im- 
 mediately before the advance, large quantities of 
 asphyxiating gas were released, this being the first 
 time that gas was used by us. The main attack was 
 launched at 6.30 a.m. on the 25th, and in some parts 
 suffered much from coming upon large belts of uncut 
 wire and drifting clouds of our own gas. On the 
 extreme right the 47th Division (with the i8th Londons 
 dribbling a football across No Man's Land), captured 
 the Double Grassier - and part of Loos. On their left 
 the 15th Division captured the remainder of Loos, 
 pressed on a mile or so farther to Hill 70 and even 
 attempted an attack beyond {i.e., to the east of) the

 British in France was gradually extended southwards as far as

 of Arras extending to the north of Albert.

 hill. In the centre the ist Division got as far as Hulluch 
 and the 7th up to Cite ^ St. Elie but the latter had 
 to withdraw to the Quarries. Further north the 9th 
 Division, although held up by the HohenzoUem 
 Redoubt and Fosse 8,^ reached the outskirts of Haisnes. 
 They were much impeded, however^ by the failure of 
 the 2nd Di\dsion on the extreme left to deal with the 
 very strong works at Auchy which were thus able to 
 enfilade sections of the advance. 
 
 During the following night the Quarries were lost, 
 and on the 26th the 15th Division was forced to give 
 up most of Hill 70. The reserves in this latter part 
 consisted of the 21st and 24th Divisions. These, being 
 newly arrived from England, had never been 
 under fire; they were wearied with a series of night 
 marches along roads crammed with traffic ; they were 
 short of food and water and drenched with rain; it 
 has been stated ^ that the officers had no precise 
 orders or detailed information.^ In this state these 
 two divisions on the 26th were thrown into the conflict 
 between Hulluch and the Bois Hugo. Both succeeded 
 in advancing, but suft'ered so terribly that they were 
 unable to maintain their gains and had to fall back. 
 The 8th Buffs for instance, and the 8th R. West Kents 
 each lost nearly 600 officers and men, and the brigade, 
 the 72nd, of which they formed part, lost 2,000 men 
 out of 3,600. On the 27th Fosse 8 was lost and the 
 Hohenzollern Redoubt which it commanded was 
 threatened. As a set-off to this reverse the newly- 
 formed Guards Division retook Hill 70. Desultory

 lighting proceeded for several days, a strong German 
 counter-attack on 8th October being beaten off and 
 renewed efforts by the British on the 13th to clear the 
 redoubt and to take Fosse 8 being unsuccessful. 
 
 After this the lighting died down into ordinary 
 trench warfare with the British holding a line (see 
 plan on p. 18) running almost due eastward from 
 Grenay as far as the Lens-Hulluch road, then north- 
 ward along this road and finally turning westward 
 through the Hohenzollern Redoubt to the original 
 front line. The area captured, although less than that 
 gained in the first assault, represented an advance of 
 about two miles on a front of about four, and the ad- 
 vance fonned a permanent threat to the German occu- 
 pation of Lens in the south and La Bassee in the north. 
 Some 3,000 prisoners with 26 field guns were taken. 
 
 Major (afterwards Lt.-Col.) Ernest Eton (R.F.A., 
 Educ.) was awarded the D.S.O. for excellent service 
 throughout the summer when, although constantly 
 shelled out of observation stations, he always managed 
 to command his guns with success. He also did good 
 work at Loos at the end of September. In the latter 
 lighting the D.C.M. was gained by Sergt. A. A. W. 
 Gray (M.G.C., Tram.) on the 25th when " he carried 
 his machine-gun forward . . . when only two men 
 of the gun team were left, and selected the gun position 
 in the most able way. His coolness and gallantry . . . 
 afforded a fine example to all ranks." Co. Sergt. -Maj. 
 (afterwards Captain) P. E. Fairley (i8th Lond., Educ.) 
 was awarded the same decoration for conspicuous 
 bravery and devotion to duty under heavy shell fire 
 during the repair of trenches that had been blown in. 
 For excellent work on night patrols, both at Festubert 
 and Loos, Rgt. Sergt. -Maj. J. W. Fisher (22nd Lond., 
 L.F.B.) was awarded the D.C.M. Sergt. A. E. Kitchen 
 (R.A.M.C, Educ), Sergt. J. V. Jeanes (Gren. Gds., 
 Asylums)., and F. J. Bulcraig (23rd Lond., Stores) 
 were awarded the M.M.

 On 25th September W. A. G. Davey (i8th Lond., 
 Stores), S. J. Farley (20th Lond., L.F.B.) and Harold 
 Marsh (6th Lond., Tram.) were killed with the 47th 
 Division, Sergt. H. B. Richardson (12th Highd. L.L, 
 Educ.) with the 15th Division somewhere near Hill 70, 
 Claude Challice (8th Devons, Educ.) near Hulluch, 
 Capt. L. G. Coward (Comp.) and H. E. Cannard 
 (Tram.) near Auchy with the ist Middlesex and S. H. 
 Townsend (R.F.A., Tram.). On the same day G. James 
 (ist R.W. Surr., Tram.) was killed in a subsidiary 
 attack near Givenchy and Henri Willem Dussauze 
 (French Army, Educ). was killed at Auberive-sur- 
 Suippes during the French assault in Champagne. 
 For his gallantry on this occasion he was awarded the 
 Croix de Guerre (highest class). J. S. Walker (ist R. 
 Welch Fus., Tram.) died on the 26th of wounds 
 received the previous day. On the same day Sergt. 
 P. J. Gould and Albert Ingram, both of the 9th E. 
 Surreys and Asylums, were killed to the south of 
 Hulluch, Lieut. Edgar Faulks (R.A.M.C., Asylums) 
 near Loos, B. G. Turner (ist Colds. Gds., L.F.B.) near 
 the Bois Hugo and E. T. Havell (loth R. Suss., Educ.) 
 near Fosse 8. On the 27th E. C. Barklamb (2nd E. 
 Surr., Housing) was killed in the Hohenzollern Redoubt, 
 and on the 30th Frank Ashby (R.A.M.C, Tram.) died 
 at Noeux-les-Mines of wounds received on the 26th. 
 On 13th October Sergt. Henry Eason (14th Lond., 
 Educ.) was killed while reconnoitring, and Sergt. 
 A. T. O'Meara and Sergt. E. Hart, both 7th Norfolks 
 and Education, and Lance-Corp. A. J. King (5th R. 
 Berks., Tram.) near the Quarries. On the 14th B. L. 
 Bilcliffe (15th Lond., Educ.) was killed near Loos. 
 
 Autumn of 1915. 
 During the autumn of 1915 there were no serious 
 engagements, but casualties on the long front now held 
 by the British were numerous. They included Lance- 
 Corp. H.J. Simons (8th E, Surr., Tram.) killed at Fricourt 
 to the east of Albert on 15th October, Sergt. James
 
 31 
 
 Shrewsbury (i2lh K.R.R., Educ.) at Laventie on the 
 i6th, William Fox (ist Buffs, Parks) on the 17th, 
 Crowther Morton (15th Lond., Educ.) on the 24tli 
 near Loos, S. J, Baker (23rd Lond., Tram.) on the 
 28th of wounds received on the 25th, A, S. Plumb (8th 
 Rif. Bde., Tram.) on the 30th of wounds received near 
 Ypres on the 13th, and Sergt. J. G. Jones (21st Lond., 
 Tram.) near HuUuch on the 31st. During November 
 E. S. Meredith (15th Lond., Estates and Vain.) was 
 killed near Loos on the ist, L. H. T. Williams (15th 
 Lond., Solr.) near Loos on the 2nd, and A. E. Coventry 
 (6th R. Berks, Tram.) near Albert on the 27th. P. H. 
 Rivers (R.E., Tram.) died on 4th December of wounds 
 received on 20th November, Arthur Cooper (nth 
 Essex, Tram.) probably near Hulhich on 19th Decem- 
 ber, and C. R. S, Aplin (22nd Lond., Tram.) on the 
 30th. 
 
 Edward Gimble (ist Middx., Tram.) was awarded 
 the Albert Medal, second class, for his gallantry on 
 26th October, when he assisted Lieut. -Com. Warden 
 in quenching a fire which had broken out on the s.s, 
 Maine. The vessel, loaded with high explosives, was 
 lying at the time in the Bassin Loubet, Boulogne, and 
 a serious, possibly disastrous, explosion was averted 
 by their action. 
 
 Sergt. A. J. Tilney (4th Drag. Gds., Clerk) received 
 the D.C.M, for repeated acts of gallantry, particularly 
 on a night in January, 1916, when he accompanied 
 an officer and two men in an attempt upon a mine 
 crater in the Hohenzollem Redoubt. The officer 
 was killed and one of the men wounded, but Sergt. 
 Tilney seized and held the position. Corp. S. C. P. 
 Drury (R.E., Educ.) was awarded the D.C.M. for 
 consistent gallantry and good work about this time 
 when in charge of sap and wire entanglement work. 
 During an engagement in the Ypres salient he also 
 displayed great courage and coolness.

 CHAPTER IV. 
 Western Front, 1916. 
 
 In December, 1915, Sir John French returned to 
 England, and on the 19th of the month Sir Douglas 
 Haig was appointed commander-in-chief of the British 
 forces. During the winter the British took over from 
 the French the sector from Lens to Arras, so that 
 in the early part of 1916 the line held by them started 
 north of Ypres, passed near Armentieres, Bethune, 
 Lens and Arras and reached practically to the river 
 Somme. The length was about 90 miles, out of a total 
 length from the North Sea to Switzerland of about 
 350 miles, and for its defence in July 660,000 infantry 
 and cavalry were available. In addition there were 
 great numbers of artillery as well as of units, near the 
 front and at the various bases, dealing with health 
 services, supply, transport, etc. 
 
 The first serious operation in 1916 in the British 
 sector was the capture by the Germans on 14th 
 February, after a heavy bombardment and the explo- 
 sion of several mines, of the Bluff, a low bank on the 
 Comines canal nearly three miles S.S.E. from Ypres. 
 Like Hill 60, about one mile to the north, it conferred 
 upon the side holding it facilities for observation and 
 so was the scene of fierce fighting. In fact one trench 
 changed hands so frequently that it gained the name 
 of " International Trench." A British counter-attack 
 in a rain-storm on the night of the I5th/i6th failed, 
 but in another attack just before dawn on 2nd March 
 not only the lost ground but an additional area was 
 captured. 
 
 At St. Eloi, a mile or more to the west, the positions 
 were reversed. On 27th March six mines were exploded 
 under the German trenches, portions of which were 
 seized. The consolidation of the new position proved 
 difficult and, after numerous bombardments and
 
 33 
 
 counter-attacks during the next four weeks, our men 
 withdrew on 27th April to the line held before the 
 operations began. 
 
 Of the remaining operations the most notable were 
 the fighting, chiefly by the 12th Division, in the Loos 
 salient in April and May, a German attack at the 
 Vimy Ridge near Souchez in the middle of May, and 
 a German attack near Hooge and Zouave and Sanc- 
 tuary Woods early in June. The last two were under- 
 taken in the hope that troops and munitions would be 
 diverted to the threatened points, and that the prepara- 
 tions, then well advanced, for the Battle of the Somme 
 would be impeded. To prevent this no effort was made 
 to recover the ground lost near Souchez, and at Hooge 
 only the area essential for the safety of the line was 
 attacked and captured. 
 
 In these ^ or in similar engagements the casualties 
 mentioned below occurred during the first half of 1916. 
 On 6th January H. E. L. White (gth Rif. Bde., Tram.) 
 was killed near Ypres, on the nth J. G. J. Waite 
 (7th K.R.R., Tram.) probably in the same neighbour- 
 hood, and S. A. Parkington (15th R. Welch Fus., 
 Tram.) near Richebourg, and on the 21st Sergt. E. 
 W. Lord (8th Glouc, Educ). On 27th January Cor- 
 poral James Skeggs (9th R. Fus., Tram.") died at 
 Netley Hospital of wounds received on 4th November, 
 1915. Lieut. E. T. Morgan (15th R. Welch Fus., Educ.) 
 died at Merville on 7th February of wounds received 
 near Richebourg two days before, Lance-Corp. A. G. 
 Rose (15th Lond., Educ.) on the 12th, and J. A.

 Ashdown (4th R. Fus., Parks) on the 27th. P. T. 
 Ketcher (20th Lond., Educ.) died at Camiers near 
 Boulogne on the 29th of wounds received on the 20th. 
 In April H. M. F. Quick (9th R. Fus., Tram.) was 
 killed near Loos on the 5th, A. W. Roberts (5th Wilts, 
 Tram.) on the 8th, W. A. ButHn (6th R. Berks, Tram.) 
 near Albert on the 19th, Lance-Corp. James Smythe 
 (R.W. Surr., Tram.) near Vermelles on the 20th, and 
 Sergt. Frank Sturtridge (6th Lond., Educ.) near Vimy 
 on the 30th. Capt. P. E. Fairley, D.C.M. (i8th Lond., 
 Educ.) wounded on 6th April lingered on until 4th 
 February, 1919, when he died in hospital in Co. 
 Armagh. Lieut. B. R. Baker (17th R. Fus., Educ.) 
 was killed near Bully Grenay on 3rd May, Sergt. 
 Mark Cutler (2nd Gren. Gds., Tram.) probably near 
 St. Jean on the 6th, William Swainsbury (R.F.A., 
 Parks) near Arras on the 7th and A. F. Canivet, 
 B-es-L., B-es-Sc, (French Army, Educ.) on the 31st. 
 Sergt. E. C. Laver (R.F.A., Tram.), wounded near 
 Arras on nth March, died in England on 19th June. 
 Michael DooHn (2nd R. Munster Fus., Tram.) was 
 killed on 25th June in a raid on the enemy's trenches 
 south of Hulluch, Sergt. E. J. Perry (7th Middx., 
 Educ.) near Hebuteme on the 26th, and Lieut. P. F. 
 Gethin (8th Devons, Educ.) near Mametz on the 28th. 
 Lieut. L. H. Kenny (8th Suff., Educ.) was missing 
 after a trench raid on the night of 26th/27th June. 
 Sergt. V. M. Elliott (2/4th Oxf. and Bucks L.L, Educ.) 
 died at Merville on ist July of wounds received in a 
 raid on the enemy's trenches near Laventie. 
 
 Sergt. R. W. Braham (R.F.A., Educ.) was awarded 
 the M.M. for gallantry during April at Vimy Ridge 
 and Co. Sergt. -Maj. C. W. Froome (i6th Lond., Educ.) 
 the D.C.M. on 2nd June, the details not being known. 
 Sergt. A. Prentice and Corporals A. E. Brereton and 
 W. H. Nash, all of the Oxf. and Bucks L.L and 
 Education, received the M.M., the first named for
 
 35 
 
 rescuing a wounded comrade, and the others for 
 various acts of gallantry during a trench raid in 
 front of Laventie on 29th June. 
 
 Vimy Ridge. 
 The fighting on Vimy Ridge to the south of Souchez 
 in May, 1916, when many of the Council's staff were 
 killed, was briefly as follows. At evening on 15th May 
 the British exploded several mines in No Man's Land 
 and the craters were occupied by troops from the 25th 
 Division. On the 21st the Germans heavily bom- 
 barded the position, and during the night of the 
 2 1st /22nd, while the 47th Division was relieving the 
 25th, they captured the craters and even parts of our 
 trench system in rear. As already stated, it was not 
 thought worth while to drive them out. The casualties 
 included Sergt. Arthur Favell (21st Lond., Educ.) 
 killed on the i8th, Sergt. T. P. Chick (15th Lond., 
 Comp.), H. W. Babington (15th Lond., Educ), A. H. 
 Russell (15th Lond., Arch.) and J. A. Wynne (15th 
 Lond., Educ.) on the 22nd, Sergt. L. S. Duck (21st 
 Lond., Solr.), Lance-Corp. Albert Burgess (21st Lond., 
 Pub. Cont.) and Sergt. S. E. Hill, B.Sc, (20th Lond., 
 Educ.) on the 23rd, and Corp. Ebenezer Kirby (R.F.A., 
 Tram.) on the 24th. Lance-Corp. L. J. Mayer (20th 
 Lond., Pub. Cont.) died at Abbeville on the 31st of 
 wounds received on the 21st, and on 3rd June Lieut. 
 L. T. Taylor (8th Loyal N. Lanes., Educ.) died at 
 Aubigny of wounds received on 21st May. 
 
 Battle of the Somme, 1916. 
 Since February, Verdun, an important point in the 
 French line of defence, had been furiously assaulted 
 but, although the defence severely taxed the French 
 resources, the Germans, even at the cost of more than 
 300,000 casualties, achieved no definite result. To 
 relieve the pressure and also to prevent the transfer 
 of German troops to the Italian or Russian fronts an 
 offensive by the French and British was planned at

 the junction of the two armies in the valley of the 
 Somme. 
 
 Modern armies consume such great quantities of 
 supplies that even in stationary warfare very careful 
 arrangements have to be made to maintain them; 
 during an offensive their needs are increased out of 
 all proportion. For the Battle of the Somme vast 
 stocks of ammunition and stores had to be accumu- 
 lated, and on the British front alone many miles of 
 new railways were constructed, more than 120 miles 
 of water mains were laid, new roads and bridges were 
 built and old ones were improved. In addition many 
 miles of communication trenches, assembly trenches, 
 assault trenches and trenches for telephone wires had 
 to be dug. 
 
 The country from Ypres to Loos, formerly part of 
 the province of Flanders, which witnessed the British 
 conflicts at the end of 1914 and throughout 1915 is 
 not unlike certain portions of the eastern districts of 
 England. It is flat or gently undulating, and divided 
 into fields by ditches, small streams and high hedges, 
 with many farms dotted about. The country to the 
 south, the scene of new and greater conflicts, is a 
 rolling, chalk country, for the most part waterless, 
 which rises steadily to heights of 500 feet or more. It 
 is quite open, except for woods on many of the hill- 
 crests, and the farms are grouped into small compact 
 villages situated every mile or so at road junctions. 
 In such country the defenders have good observation 
 and good fields of fire, while the attackers, even if they 
 find it difficult or impossible to obtain cover, are able, 
 in ordinary weather and under ordinary conditions, to 
 move their infantry freely in any direction. 
 
 The position to be attacked by the British was the 
 high land running north-westward from the Somme to 
 St. Pierre Divion, where it was cut by the valley of the 
 Ancre, and then northward to Gommecourt. The 
 German first system of trenches was on the forward.
 
 39 
 
 that is the southern and western, slopes, their second on 
 the hill-crests 3,000 to 5,000 yards in rear, and still 
 farther back there were the elements of a third line. 
 The first two lines were exceptionally strong. The 
 chalk soil enabled dug-outs to be prepared at a depth 
 which made them practically safe from bombardment, 
 the villages and woods had been turned into fortresses, 
 the trenches were protected by belts, forty feet wide or 
 more, of barbed wire often as thick as a man's finger. 
 The battle is usually regarded in three phases, the 
 first from ist to 17th July when a footing was gained 
 on the hill-crest between Delville Wood and Bazentin- 
 le-Petit (see plan on p. 36), the second from 17th 
 July to the first week of September when violent 
 counter-attacks were beaten off and our position on 
 the whole of the high land was made good, and the 
 third from September to November when an advance 
 was made down the further, that is the eastern and 
 northern, slopes, and our gains were extended on both 
 
 ^^^^S- First Phase, ist/i-jth July. 
 
 From 24th June the enemy's line from Maricourt to 
 Gommecourt, a distance of twenty miles, was bom- 
 barded almost continuously, and gas was discharged at 
 frequent intervals. At 7.30 a.m. on ist July, a calm 
 summer day, after a short final bombardment of excep- 
 tional violence accompanied by the discharge of smoke 
 and the explosion of many mines, the attack was 
 launched. Counting from the right, the 30th, i8th 
 and 7th Divisions were successful at Montauban and 
 Mametz, a distance of about five miles, and the 21st, 
 34th and 8th were partially successful at Fricourt, La 
 Boisselle and Ovillers. On the left, in spite of initial 
 successes, the 32nd and 36th failed near Thiepval, the 
 29th and the 4th near Beaumont Hamel, the 31st at 
 Serre and the 56th and 46th near Gommecourt. One 
 cause of the failure was that the Germans expected 
 that the main attack would be in this sector and 
 consequently they had greatly strengthened their
 
 40 
 
 defences and had brought up large numbers of guns. 
 Even as it was, our men at Thiepval, Serre, Gomme- 
 court, and elsewhere reached points to which British 
 troops did not penetrate again until after several 
 months of weary fighting. These scattered groups, 
 cut off from their supports and supplies by a heavy 
 barrage, were attacked in rear by parties of the enemy 
 who, by withdrawing to positions of safety, had escaped 
 our bombardments. It is not surprising that, out- 
 numbered and short of ammunition and bombs, they 
 had to withdraw, and that few of them regained their 
 own lines in safety. 
 
 In spite of heavy counter-attacks the success on 
 the right was exploited and during the next few days 
 Fricourt, Bernafay and Caterpillar Woods and La 
 Boisselle fell. About the 5th the weather broke and 
 to the horrors of the battle were added the misery and 
 discomfort of heavy rain. Contalmaison and Mametz 
 Wood were captured on loth July and, as some pro- 
 gress had been made at Trones Wood on the right and 
 Ovillers on the left, a general attack on the enemy's 
 second line was possible. 
 
 Accordingly on the night of 13th /14th July our 
 troops advanced nearly a mile and in the darkness 
 took up position unobserved just below the crest. At 
 3.25 on the morning of the 14th, when there was only 
 sufficient light to distinguish friend from foe, the at- 
 tack opened. Trones Wood was captured by the i8th 
 Division, Longueval by the 9th, the Bazentins by the 
 3rd and 7th, and ground to the west of Bazentin-le- 
 Petit by the 21st, ist and 34th, while some troops 
 even reached High Wood but were ordered to retire. 
 On the 15th Delville Wood ^ and Waterlot Farm to 
 the south were captured, and on the i6th Ovillers, 
 after a heroic resistance for more than two weeks, 
 surrendered.

 41 
 
 Asylums) received the M.C, for devotion to duty at 
 Montauban when he led a rescue party in the open 
 under heavy fire and rescued twenty-eight wounded 
 men. Lieut. John Lever (13th R. Fus., Educ.) won the 
 M.C. for conspicuous bravery at Mametz Wood. 
 Major C. C. B. Morris (R.A.S.C, L.F.B.) also won the 
 MC. about this time but details are lacking. The 
 M.M. was awarded to Corp. A. S. Devis (12th M.G.C., 
 Tram.) for rescuing a wounded man, and to Scrgt. 
 J. E. Bailey (ist R. Welch Fus., Asylums) for his 
 gallantry at the capture of Bazentin-le-Petit. 
 
 The fighting up to 17th July resulted in the capture 
 of seven miles of the enemy's front system and three 
 of his second, numerous strongly-fortified villages and 
 woods, 54 guns, 82 machine-guns and trench mortars, 
 and over 10,000 prisoners. 
 
 These varying successes and failures were of course 
 accompanied by long lists of casualties, and on ist 
 July alone twenty-three of the Council's staff were 
 killed, namely vSergt. J. E. Simons (8th E. Surr., Tram.) 
 near Montauban, M. W. Bevan (ist Dorsets, L.F.B.)

 Humphrey (R.F.A., Tram.) died on the 15th of wounds 
 received on the 14th, probably in this sector. Acting- 
 Quartermaster C. A. W. Walpole (R.F.A., Tram.) was 
 killed on the 15th, and Alfred Ridgewell (ist Middx., 
 Asylums) on the same date near Bazentin-le-Petit. 
 Ernest Davis (loth R Fus., Educ.) died on the 23rd 
 of wounds received near Pozieres on the 15th. 
 
 Second Phase, lyih July to gth September. 
 
 By this time the enemy had brought up strong 
 reserves and, as our line formed a pronounced salient, 
 it was almost a question, not whether the position 
 could be improved, but whether even it could be main- 
 tained. Longueval and Delville Wood, at the apex of 
 the salient, were under fire from three sides, and during 
 a violent attack on the i8th the Germans captured part 
 of the village and of the wood. As a set off against this
 
 43 
 we gained a footing in High Wood on the 20th, and 
 advanced on the 23rd along much of the front between 
 Guillemont and Pozieres. On the 25th the last named 
 place fell, and between the 27th and the 29th Delville 
 Wood and Longueval were cleared. Our attacks on 
 Falfemont Farm and Guillemont on 30th July and 8th 
 and i6th August with the object of straightening out 
 the salient all failed, but on the i8th Guillemont 
 station and part of the village were captured, and on 
 3rd September the whole passed into our hands. 
 
 In the meantime our men had fought their way 
 almost step by step towards Mouquet Farm near 
 Thiepval and to the high ground which enabled them 
 to overlook Martinpuich and Courcelette. Following 
 upon a general attack on 3rd September along the line 
 as far north as the Ancre, Falfemont Farm and Leuze 
 Wood were captured on the 5th, and another general 
 attack on the 9th gave us possession of Bouleaux 
 Wood and Ginchy. The two months' fighting from 
 17th July yielded little more than the two weeks before 
 that date, but the enemy's resistance was now broken 
 and henceforward the advance was comparatively 
 rapid. 
 
 Lieut, (afterwards Lt.-Col.) W. Parkes (S. Wales 
 Bord., Educ.) won the M.C. for conspicuous gallantry 
 in action. " He rallied troops wliich had lost their 
 officers . . . and displayed great coolness and courage. 
 He continued to do fine work till he was severely 
 wounded." Capt. (afterwards Lt.-Col.) C. F. Healey 
 (8th R. Dub. Fus., Educ.) was awarded the M.C. for 
 conspicuous bravery at Ginchy on 9th September. 
 On the same date Sergt. W. Brawn (Lond., Educ.) 
 won the D.C.M. when at Leuze Wood he assumed 
 command of three companies, re-organised them and 
 superintended the consolidation of the captured posi- 
 tion under very heavy fire for thirty hours. J. H. 
 Counter (ist Devons, Ch. Engr.) won the M.M. for 
 digging out, under heavy shell fire, several of his 
 
 D
 
 44 
 
 comrades who had been buried in a dug-out by the 
 explosion of a shell, Lieut. T. E. Cresswell (R.N. Div., 
 Arch.) was awarded the M.C. for conspicuous gallantry 
 in action at Beaucourt on 13th September when, 
 although severely wounded, he continued to lead his 
 men with great courage and determination. 
 
 In this fighting the undermentioned members of 
 the staff were killed: Sergt. Percy Walton (R.F.A., 
 Asylums) on the i8th to the west of Fricourt, Lieut. 
 C. J. Fox (ist R.W. Rents, Educ.) and S. V. Scutt 
 (ist R.W. Rents, Tram.), on the 22nd at Longueval, 
 Lieut. W. F. B. Willis (ist D.C.L.L, Educ.) and 
 Sergt. F. C. Lambert (ist D.C.L.L, Asylums) near 
 Delville Wood, and Charles Archer (2nd R. Suss., 
 Educ.) on the 23rd, Corporal George Bull (ist E. 
 Surr., Tram.) on the 26th, D. A. Cole (24th R. 
 Fus., Educ.) on the 27th, Lance-Corp. J. H. Taylor, 
 A.R.I.B.A. (R.A.M.C, Arch.) on the 28th, and Lieut. 
 H. L. Petrie (2nd R.O.S.B., Educ.) on the 30th, all 
 near Longueval, and H. J. Ash (24th R. Fus., Educ.) 
 on the 31st near' Delville Wood. Bombr. Tom Rose 
 (R.F.A., Educ.) died at Rouen on 2nd August of 
 wounds received near Mametz Wood on 19th July. 
 
 Capt. O. H. Peters, M.B., B.S., D.P.H. (R.A.M.C, 
 Pub. Health) died at Corbie-sur-Somme on 4th August 
 of wounds received in this sector a few days before, and 
 J. B. Owens (9th R. Fus., Tram.) at Boulogne on the 
 nth of wounds received near Pozieres on the 5th. 
 Sergt. A. E. Bristowe (13th Rif. Bde., Educ.) was 
 killed on the 7th near Mametz Wood and Sergt. J. H. 
 B. Cope (17th Middx., Educ.) on the 8th, Albert 
 Martin (9th E. Surr., Tram.) on the 12th, Lance-Corp. 
 Sidney Priest (8th Buffs, Tram.) on the 13th and 
 Sergt. F. J. Whiteley (7th Rif. Bde., Educ.) on the 
 i8th, all near Delville Wood, Herbert Miller (13th 
 Middx., Tram.) on the iSthfnear Guillemont, Lieut. 
 W. H. Bissley (8th R. Berks.,' Educ.) on the 19th near 
 High Wood, A. B. Cope (R.F.A., Comp.) on the 20th
 
 45 
 at Montauban, C. J. Denly (R.F.A., Educ.) on the 
 23rd near Mametz Wood, Sergt. W. A. Lowes (R.F.A., 
 Asylums) on the 25th at Bazentin-le-Petit, Sergt. F. 
 C. Pocock (3rd Wore, Tram.) also on the 25th, Henry 
 Crane (9th Rif. Bde., Parks) on the 29th near Delville 
 Wood, David Haslum (R.F.A., Tram.) on the 31st 
 near Longueval. 
 
 On 3rd September Sergt. E. A. Head (Parks), 
 Corporal H. W. Veaser (Parks) and Corporal G. W. J. 
 Holt (Ch. Engr.), all of the 17th K.R.R., were killed 
 near Beaumont Hamel, Sergt. G. E. Corkett and P. H. 
 Edwards, both of the i6th Rif. Bde. and Tramways, 
 near Hamel, and Lieut. P. A. Bick (2nd R. Irish Rgt., 
 Arch.) and Sergt. Jacob Robinson (9th E. Surr., Parks) 
 near Ginchy. On the 4th Capt. H. S. Cameron, B.Sc. 
 (Educ.) and Sergt. A. W. Sterry (Tram.), both of the 
 1st Norfolks, were killed near Falfemont Farm, and 
 Lieut. P. S. Worner (9th Devons, Educ.) near Ginchy, 
 on the 7th Sergt. R. H. Newbold (2nd Lond., Educ.) 
 near Guillemont and E. P. Finnessy (R.F.A., Tram.) 
 near Montauban and on the 9th Robert Jessop (5th 
 Lond., Educ.) near Guillemont. On this same day 
 Corporal T. B. Butler (M.G.C., Asylums) died at Rouen 
 of wounds received on i8th August near Martinpuich. 
 
 Third Phase, September to November. 
 
 In another general attack on 15th September Flers 
 was captured by the 41st Division and New Zealand 
 troops assisted by several tanks,^ Martinpuich by the 
 15th and Courcelette by the Canadians. High Wood, 
 reached by cavalry during the fighting on 14th July, 
 had been attacked by the 33rd and 51st Divisions 
 later in the month and by the ist on 3rd September, 
 but each time without permanent success. Out- 
 flanked by the fall of Flers, it was at length captured 
 on the 15th by the 47th Division after sharp fighting. 
 On the i8th an advance was made towards Morval. 
 
 ' This was tho first occasion on which these new engines of war 
 were used.
 
 46 
 These were the best results which, since the beginning 
 of the battle, had been obtained in any one operation. 
 A further advance on the 25th resulted in the capture 
 of Morv^al by the 5th Division, and Les Bceufs by the 
 6th and the Guards, while next day Gueudecourt fell 
 to the 2ist Division and Combles to the 56th. 
 
 The enemy was thus cleared from much of the high 
 land which he had held for the previous two years and 
 instead of overlooking our trenches was now over- 
 looked by them. Thiepval, on the left of the advance, 
 where the attack had failed on ist July, still continued 
 to offer a resolute and obstinate resistance. However 
 on the 26th, in conjunction with the operations on the 
 right at Gueudecourt and Combles, Mouquet Farm was 
 captured by the Canadians and the nth Division, and 
 by the morning of the next day the whole of Thiepval 
 had been seized by the i8th Division. 
 
 Lieut, A. C. Dancer (5th Dorsets, Educ.) for con- 
 spicuous gallantry in the fighting at Thiepval and 
 Mouquet Farm was awarded the M.C. " He estab- 
 lished and maintained communications throughout 
 the operations with great courage and skill. On one 
 occasion he himself killed several enemy snipers." 
 About this time also Sergt. J. H. Taylor (R.W. Surr., 
 Parks) was awarded the D.C.M. " for conspicuous 
 gallantry in action. He commanded his men with 
 great courage and initiative, holding a front line 
 position until relieved." Sergt. T. F. Watkins (R.F.A., 
 L.F.B.) was awarded the M.M. 
 
 Between ist and 3rd October the enemy's fourth 
 system of defences was breached by the 47th Division, 
 at and near Eaucourt I'Abbaye, and on the 7th the 
 23rd captured Le Sars and the 20th advanced to the 
 east of Gueudecourt. 
 
 At this point when great results were in prospect, 
 even the cutting off or enforced withdrawal of the enemy 
 as far as Arras and the river Scarpe, the weather, which 
 for some time had been unfavourable, completely
 
 47 
 broke up. A month's incessant rain made the roads, 
 already much damaged by the traffic and shell-fire, 
 almost impassable either for troops or supplies, and 
 in the mists aeroplane reconnaissance was imprac- 
 ticable. The enemy thus had time in which to re- 
 organise his troops and to construct new defences. 
 Except therefore for the operations in the valley of 
 the Ancre (see p. 50) the battle, after more than 
 three months' continuous fighting, died down with 
 our line on the forward slope of the ridge running 
 through Les Boeufs, Gueudecourt and Le Sars. 
 
 Sergt. L. Willey (ist E. Surr., Housing) was awarded 
 the M.M. for bravery shown at Combles on 25th 
 September when, after all the officers of his company 
 had become casualties, he re-organised half the com- 
 pany, consolidated the new position and held it until 
 reheved on the night of the 26th. Sergt. F. Hills (Lond., 
 Educ.) gained the M.M. at Eaucourt I'Abbaye on 8th 
 October when he carried out a most successful recon- 
 naissance under heavy fire, and about this time Sergt. S. 
 Simpson (Lond., Educ.) also received the same decora- 
 tion. Captain A. B. Raffle (R.A.M.C, Pub. Health) 
 was awarded the M.C. for general distinguished service. 
 
 The casualty lists were very heavy, the deaths 
 among the Council's staff being as follows: On loth 
 September W. H. Hird (5th Lond., Educ.) was killed 
 near Guillemont, B. E. Clarke (7th Middx., Educ.) 
 on the nth and J. G. Armes (3rd Lond., Tram.) on the 
 12th, both near Leuze Wood, while H. O. Wood (ist 
 Middx., Stores) and Sergt. T. W. Peel (8th Middx., 
 Asylams) died on the latter date of wounds received 
 on the loth and nth respectively. On the 15th

 near Mametz, and J. A. Clarke (5th Rif. Bde., Pub. 
 Health) and Walter Cappleman (loth Rif. Bde., 
 Tram.) probably near Gueudecourt. W, A. Head 
 (23rd Lond., Educ), Sergt. G. T. Springbett (nth

 Battle of the Ancre. 
 The failure at Thiepval and Beaumont Hamel on 
 1st July and the partial success at the former on 26th 
 September have already been referred to (see pp. 39 
 and 46). Our advance over the high land east of 
 Thiepval to the line Les Boeufs — Gueudecourt — Le Sars 
 threatened to cut off the Germans in. the valley of the 
 Ancre round about Hamel and Beaucourt, but the 
 continual rain put an end to that advance. It was 
 therefore decided to deal with the enemy positions on 
 the Ancre by direct assault.^ Early in November the 
 weather improved, with frost in place of rain. On 
 13th November, after a bombardment lasting 48 hours, 
 the attack was launched in a mist and at almost every 
 point was completely successful. On this or succeeding 
 days the 19th and 39th Divisions captured St. Pierre 
 Divion and land to the east, the 63rd was successful 
 at Beaucourt, the 51st at Beaumont Hamel and the 
 2nd to the north thereof. The number of prisoners 
 taken was 7,200. 
 
 In the fighting near Beaumont Hamel Lieut, (after- 
 wards Captain) F. G. Bull (23rd R. Fus., Clerk) gained 
 the M.C., and in the same neighbourhood Sergt. T. J.

 was killed near Beaucourt and S. H. Boot (5th Seaforth 
 Highdrs., Arch.) near Beaumont Hamel, on the 14th 
 H. J. Dunford (Hon. Artillery Co., Educ.) near Beau- 
 court and on the same date C. J. L. Jewell (R.G.A., 
 Tram.) died near Albert of wounds received the day 
 before, probably in this sector. 
 
 Summary. 
 
 The net immediate result of the Battle of the Somme 
 was the piercing of the enemy's lines on a front of 
 some seven miles and to an average depth of three or 
 four miles, and the capture of 38,000 prisoners, 29 
 heavy guns, 96 field guns, 136 trench mortars and 514 
 machine guns. The enemy's withdrawal in the spring of 
 1917 (see p. 56) south of the Scarpe and in the valley 
 of the Somme was a further direct result. Of much 
 more importance, however, than the gain of ground or 
 the capture of prisoners, was the moral effect of the 
 fact that our men had driven the Germans out of 
 strongly fortified positions and had held the positions 
 so won against frequent counter-attacks. Casualties 
 of course had been heavy but the enemy's losses both 
 in men and material were not much less than ours.^ 
 In the second place the pressure on Verdun was 
 relieved so effectually that in the latter part of the 
 year the French weie able to win back much of the 
 ground lost in the earlier part and to capture many 
 prisoners and guns. Finally the enemy was prevented 
 from moving troops to the Italian or Russian fronts 
 
 > The losses admitted by the Germans were 444,933 which, in 
 view of their methods, might have to be increased by 50 per cent. 
 (Times Literary Supplement, 20th January, 1921, p. 34). The British 
 losses in July, 1916, were 196.081 (Capt. P. E. Wright, At the 
 Supreme War Council, p. 121), but this rate was far from being 
 maintained. Our total losses were 499,476 {ibid., p. 33). The 
 French losses were less than the British. It must be remembered, 
 however, that the British casualty lists included the names of those 
 who received very light wounds; usually such light cases were not 
 included in the lists of the other belligerents.
 
 5« 
 lor, at the end of the year, his strength in France was 
 greater than in July. 
 
 Although only British operations are dealt with in 
 this sketch it should be stated that throughout the 
 battle the French played a most prominent part. The 
 Germans were not expecting an attack from them so 
 that their advance on our right was most successful, 
 particularly at first, and carried them almost as far 
 as Peronne. Then the German resistance stiffened, but 
 all through the operations the French continued to 
 assist the right of our advance and to push the enemy 
 back on both sides of the Somme. Their total advance 
 was from four to six miles on a front of about 
 fourteen miles. 
 
 General Fighting during the latter half of 1916. 
 
 Sergt. F. King (R.F.A., L.F.B.) was awarded the 
 D.C.M. for gallantry and devotion to duty in action 
 at Laventie on 23rd August, 1916, and Sergt. E. M.

 CHAPTER V. 
 
 Western Front, 1917. 
 
 During the winter of 1916-17 the British took over a 
 further section of the Hne, principally that which had 
 fallen to the French at the Battle of the Somme. With 
 the completion of this operation the British sector 
 extended from the north of Ypres to the Amiens- 
 Roye road, a distance of about 115 miles. The under- 
 mentioned deaths among the staff on service occurred 
 about this time. H. W. Cooper (13th Lond., Tram.) 
 died on 6th January of wounds received the day before, 
 and F. W. Groombridge (Army Cyclists Corps, Tram.) 
 was killed near Bullecourt on the 26th, Walter Peters 
 (R.A.M.C., Asylums) died of bronchitis at Etaples on 
 the nth, and Lieut. J. A. Monkhouse (R.A.M.C, 
 Educ.) on the 23rd, of heart trouble following trench 
 fever. During February Frank Bailey (i6th Middx., 
 Tram.) was killed near Combles on the 4th, Corporal 
 C. G. Adams (2 /5th Lond., Pub. Health) died on the 
 6th of wounds received near Arras on the 2nd, Scrgt. 
 S. R. Bencc, M.M. (3rd Lond., Educ), on the 17th,
 
 54 
 probably near Neuve Chapelle, C. T. Harris (3rd Cold. 
 Gds., Parks) on the 22nd near Combles, Lance-Corp. 
 A. R. Hart (7th Middx., Educ.) on the 23rd near 
 Neuve Chapelle, and F. H. H. Taylor (7th Buffs, 
 Educ.) on the 27th. Lieut. J. V. Amos (R.F.A., Parks) 
 died at Bethune on the 13th of illness, and W. J. 
 Power (9th R. Fus., Educ.) on the 17th of appendicitis. 
 Bombr. J. A. George (R.G.A., Asylums), wounded near 
 Arras on 14th February, died in England on 25th 
 January, 1918. 
 
 G. W. Sapsworth (17th Lond., Educ.) died at Pope- 
 ringhe on ist March of wounds received the day before 
 near Ypres, C. W. Bishop (2nd R. Berks, Tram.) on 
 the 4th near Peronne, Capt. D. F. Goodwin (R.F.A., 
 Arch.) near Rozieres, and H. G. Brice (6th Lond., 
 Tram.) near Arras on the 7th, E. W. Vince (20th Lond., 
 Parks) near Dickebusch and C. R. Darkens (13th 
 E. Surr., Tram.) in the area of the Somme on the 
 14th, and Ernest Lewis (23rd Lond., Educ.) near 
 Zillebeke on the 15th. 
 
 Capt. A. C. Hancock, M.C., (R.A.M.C, Asylums) was 
 awarded a bar to his M.C. for conspicuous good work 
 in advanced dressing stations, near the Butte de 
 Warlencourt early in 1917, " notably when he suc- 
 cessfully conducted evacuation of wounded under 
 heavy shell fire and adverse circumstances. ... By 
 his initiative, personal courage and devotion to duty 
 he was responsible for the able carrpng out of wounded 
 through a barrage of shell fire for six days. He was 
 then severely gassed, but persisted in attempting duty 
 until physically incapable." 
 
 Fighting in the Valley of the Ancre. 
 The fighting at the end of 1916 closed with the 
 capture of Beaumont Hamel and Beaucourt in the 
 valley of the Ancre. This advance, if continued, would 
 enable the enemy's strong positions at Serre and 
 Gommecourt, which had repulsed all assaults in 19 16, 
 to be attacked in flank or in rear, and it was natural
 
 55 
 that, in the spring of 1917, the fighting should com- 
 mence at the same point. ^ During'} anuary our position 
 at Beaumont Hamel was extended and consoHdated, 
 and on 6th February, Grandcourt, and on the 7th 
 Baillescourt Farm were occupied. A further advance 
 on the 17th up to Petit Miraumont led to the evacua- 
 tion by the enemy of the defences of Pys, Miraumont 
 and Serre, and on the 25th these places with Warlen- 
 court to the east were occupied. On the 27th Gomme- 
 court fell, followed by Puisieux-au-Mont on the 28th. 
 After a week's delay to enable artillery to be brought 
 up and communications to be put in order, Irles was 
 attacked and captured at dawn on loth March. 
 
 In an attempted advance in February up the valley 
 of the Ancre towards Pys, Capt. J. W. Woods (2nd 
 Yorks L.I., Educ.) " accompanied by six men . . . 
 pushed forward in front of his company, thereby 
 effecting the capture of 60 prisoners. Later, he took 
 charge of the right-half battalion and consoHdated 
 his position under the most difficult conditions." For 
 this gallantry he was awarded the M.C. For his gallant 
 conduct and devotion to duty on 17th February 
 during operations near Miraumont, Sergt. Thomas 
 Eaves (8th Suff., Tram.) was awarded the M.M. 
 
 In this fighting Lieut. L. T. Despicht, M.C. (4th 
 Beds, Educ.) was killed on nth February, Capt. 
 Leon Simons, M.C, B.Sc. (22nd R. Fus., Educ), Sergt. 
 Frank Trevett, M.M. (ist K.R.R., Tram.), Sergt. 
 E. G. Stanbrough (22nd R. Fus., Arch.) and A. E. 
 Lassetter (nth R. Fus., Educ.) on the 17th in the 
 advance on Miraumont, and Sergt. Frederick Prior 
 (23rd R. Fus., Tram.) on the i8th. Lieut. S. D. Lang, 
 B.A. (2/5th Yorks L.L, Educ), wounded in this 
 neighbourhood on the 20th, died on the 23rd. 
 
 German Retreat. 
 For some time it had been suspected that the 
 German ^^dthdrawal in the valley of the Ancre would 
 
 * Forplan. see p. 36.
 
 56 
 be extended to other parts of their front. A constant 
 watch was maintained, and on 14th March portions of 
 the enemy's Unes to the south of Sailly-Saillisel were 
 found to be empty. A general advance between Roye 
 and Arras was ordered for the 17th when Chaulnes and 
 Bapaume were entered; next day Nesle and Peronne 
 fell. The advance continued on succeeding days, but 
 great care had to be exercised so that progress was slow. 
 
 It was known that the enemy was falling back upon 
 fortified positions, carefully selected, and possessing 
 ample communications for the movement of troops 
 and supplies. Our men, on the other hand, had to 
 abandon their defences, and to move forward more 
 or less in the open; their communications lay across 
 a desolate region which for four months recently had 
 been the scene of most destructive fighting. Sudden 
 counter-attacks were to be expected at almost any 
 time or any place, and such attacks, if successful, 
 would have far-reaching results. To add to the diffi- 
 culties, roads and railways had been mined, bridges 
 blown up and stores and farm stocks removed. Shelter 
 of any kind was hard to find, for all buildings, both 
 public and private, including several of great historical 
 or archaeological interest, had been pillaged and de- 
 stroyed or at least rendered uninhabitable. In some 
 of themjmines with delayed action had been left, 
 which exploded after the arrival of our men and 
 caused many casualties. All this of course was legiti- 
 mate warfare. Less legitimate, and, indeed, com- 
 pletely opposed to civiUsed practice, were the poisoning 
 and pollution of wells, which occurred in so many 
 places that the work must have been done under 
 orders. The destruction of the numerous orchards 
 was of no military advantage, but was rather a proof 
 of a petty and spiteful disposition in those who 
 planned the work. 
 
 In face of growing resistance the pursuit gradually 
 slackened, and about 8th April our troops were
 
 57 
 definitely held up on a line (see pp. 92 and 37) which, 
 starting from opposite St Quentin on our right, passed 
 to the east of Epehy, near Havrincourt Wood and 
 Croisilles, to the eastern suburbs of Arras where it 
 joined the original line. The withdrawal extended 
 much farther than this, in fact from Soissons in the 
 south to Arras in the north, a distance of 70 miles, 
 or, allowing for the curves in the line, a battle front of 
 120 miles. Two-thirds of this was opposite the British, 
 the remainder being opposite the French. The greatest 
 distance through which the line was withdrawn was 
 about 20 miles, this being near Roye; elsewhere, 
 except of course at the extremities, the withdrawal 
 averaged about 15 miles. 
 
 Lieut. S. J. F. Philpott, (R.G.A., Educ.) gained the 
 M.C. on 6th April, when a magazine containing cart- 
 ridges and fuses was set on fire, and the enemy pro- 
 ceeded to shell the spot. With two others he rushed 
 into the blazing mass and extricated boxes of fuses 
 from the fuse store. 
 
 Although there was no prolonged resistance during 
 the retreat, there was sharp fighting at various points 
 and Sergt. W. A. WilHams (12th Middlx., Stores) was 
 killed on 17th March near Bapaume, H. E. Lawrance 
 (2nd H.A.C., Arch.) near Ecoust St. Mein on the 31st, 
 C, A. Sanderson (R. Inn. Fus., Educ.) on ist April, 
 George Saunders (8th R. Fus., Tram.) near Arras on 
 the 4th, Corporal W. J. Burford (4th Oxf. and Bucks 
 L J., Educ.) near Ronssoy on the 5th, and Sergt. Bertie 
 Elliott (2/4th Oxf. and Bucks L.I., Educ.) near St. 
 Quentin on the 7th. 
 
 Battles of Arras, 1917. 
 For the spring of 1917 the French, now under 
 General Nivellc in succession to General Joffre, had 
 planned in the Champagne area north-west of Rheims 
 an ambitious scheme of attack from which great results 
 were expected. To ensure concerted action the British 
 army was to some extent placed under the orders of
 
 Arras 1917.
 
 59 
 General Nivelle, and it was arranged that it should 
 attract the enemy's reserves by opening an offensive to 
 the east of Arras. The enemy had obtained an inkling 
 of what was proposed and the retreat, just referred 
 to, between Soissons and Arras was carried out partly 
 with the intention of dislocating the Allies' plans. 
 Fortunately the withdrawal near Arras was slight and 
 the British plans were hardly interfered with. 
 
 Arras, as the principal city in the British sector of 
 the front and also as the French city which, after 
 Rheims, sustained most damage from the war, merits 
 a brief description. It is situated on the river Scarpe, 
 a canalised stream flowing through a marshy valley 
 and from this point eastwards navigable for barges. 
 The surrounding country is much like the Somme 
 country — bare sloping uplands, the chief points in 
 which are Vimy Ridge on the north with a height 
 of 475 feet and Monchy-le-Preux to the south-east 
 with a height of 350 feet. Arras had been an important 
 place for over 2,000 years for, in the time of JuHus 
 Caesar, it was the capital of the Atrebates from whom, 
 like the surrounding province of Artois, it derived its 
 name, and ia the 6th century it became the seat of a 
 bishopric. After various vicissitudes in the Hundred 
 Years' War between England and France, it passed 
 into the power of the Spaniards but was taken from 
 them by the French in 1640.^ In the Middle Ages it 
 gave its name of " arras " to the special kind of 
 tapestry for the manufacture of which it was noted. 
 
 Overlooked by the enemy from the high ground to 
 the north-east and south-east, and closely hemmed in 
 on three sides by trenches dug through several of the- 
 suburbs, it suffered terribly from the war. The early 
 16th-century Hotel de Ville, regarded as one of the 
 most beautiful buildings in northern France, was 
 completely destroyed. The Grande-Place and the 
 
 ^ Some of the architecture has been said to show Spanish 
 influence, but this seems to be incorrect. (Notes and Queries, 
 7th Jan., I9?2.)

 Petite-Place, surrounded by gabled houses dating from 
 the 17th century or earlier, with charming arcades, were 
 wrecked. The cathedral became a roofless ruin, piled 
 with debris to a'height of ten or twenty feet. Extensive 
 areas near the station and in the middle of the city 
 were so damaged as to be uninhabitable. 
 
 As at the Somme our preparations included the 
 construction of many miles of ordinary and narrow 
 gauge railways, the formation of new roads, the pro- 
 vision of accommodation and water for tens of thou- 
 sands of troops, and the accumulation of immense 
 quantities of guns, ammunition and supplies. In the 
 chalk under the city were immense catacombs dating 
 from very early times. These were linked up into one 
 system, lit by electricity, and connected with the 
 trenches. A few days before the attack large bodies 
 of troops, brought up to the city under cover of dark- 
 ness, were concealed in these catacombs with the 
 result that at the opening of the assault the British 
 were in much greater strength than the Germans 
 expected. 
 
 The front attacked extended for fifteen miles, from 
 Croisilles in the south to the northern end of the Vimy 
 Ridge. For most of this distance the enemy's defences 
 consisted of three separate trench systems forming a 
 highly organised belt, and to deal with these a heavy 
 bombardment was necessary. This commenced three 
 weeks before the date fixed for the assault and gradu- 
 ally increased in intensity, while from time to time 
 extensive discharges of gas were made. The assault 
 was launched in a storm of sleet and wind at 5.30 on 
 •the morning of Easter Monday, 9th April, and, differ- 
 ing from the opening of the Battle of the Somme nine 
 months earlier, was everywhere successful. By 7.20 
 the first objective had been captured and by noon 
 most of the second, while before the end of the day 
 wide gaps had been forced in the enemy's third system. 
 Counting from the south, that is from the right of
 
 6i 
 
 the advance, the troops responsible for these excellent 
 results were the 30th Division at St. Martin-sur- 
 Cojeul, the 56th at Neuville Vitasse, the 14th at Tele- 
 graph Hill, the 3rd and the 12th along the Arras- 
 Cambrai road followed by the 37th towards Orange 
 Hill, the 15th at Railway Triangle and Feuchy, the 9th 
 at Blangy followed by the 4th at Fampoux, the 34th 
 at Point du Jour and the 51st further north. Tanks 
 co-operated in the capture of Tilloy and Railway 
 Triangle. The attack on Vimy I^dge was brilliantly 
 carried out by the Canadian Corps of four Canadian 
 divisions. 
 
 In spite of heavy falls of snow and rain the success 
 was extended on the loth by the capture of Orange 
 Hill and the summit of Vimy Ridge, on the nth by 
 the capture of Monchy and by an attempt on Bulle- 
 court and on the 12th by the capture of Heninel 
 and Wancourt in the south, and two hills known as 
 the Pimple and the Bois-en-Hache in the valley of 
 the Souchez south-west of Lens. During the next 
 few days the enemy vacated many of his trenches 
 to the south, west and north of Lens, and these were 
 promptly occupied. 
 
 Altogether the fighting between 9th and i6th April 
 yielded the most important results achieved by us 
 up to that time. The front was advanced an average 
 of four miles on a length of fifteen. The gains included 
 about 8,500 yards, near the Scarpe, of the Hindenburg 
 line, a system of trenches which had been very strongly 
 constructed in positions specially suitable for defence. 
 Moreover the British position was much improved 
 by the seizure of high ground by which it had pre- 
 viously been dominated. The prisoners numbered 
 13,000 and over 200 guns were captured. 
 
 In the fighting near Gavrelle on the 24th, Corporal 
 A. C. Batchelor (loth R. Fus., Comp.), before com- 
 munication by signal could be established and when 
 nearly all the officers had become casualties, maintained
 
 62 
 
 touch between battalion headquarters and the front line, 
 and in doing so he thrice made his way through very 
 heavy fire and returned with valuable information. For 
 this gallantry he was awarded the M.M. 
 
 Those who lost their lives in the first eight days of 
 the battle included Herbert Stagnell (13th K.R.R., 
 Stores) killed near Feuchy, G. E, Downham (ist Rif. 
 Bde., Pub. Cont.) north of Fampoux, Sergt. W. E. 
 Newton (R.G.A., Parks) near Arras, and Lance-Corp. 
 Benjamin Rotenberg (Wilts Yeo., Educ.) on Vimy 
 Ridge, all on 9th April. On the loth Lance-Corp. A. G. 
 Greenwood (8th Middx., Educ.) was killed to the 
 east of Neuville Vitasse and C. H. Plummer (loth 
 R, Fus., Tram.) near Monchy, and on the nth Capt. 
 B. T. Bryant (5th Line, Educ). B, A. Savage (nth 
 Middx., Parks.) wounded on the 9th, and A. E. 
 Newton (3rd Lond., Educ.) on the 12th, died on the 
 12th and 13th respectively. On the 14th Sergt. A. G. 
 Chick (Educ.) and Corporal C. J. Brunning (Tram.) 
 of the 9th Londons, and James Scowcroft (Educ.) and 
 Lance-Corp. Arthur Bradbury (Solr.) of the i6th 
 Londons, were killed between Heninel and Cherisy. 
 
 Continuation of the Battle. 
 
 In the ordinary way the battle would now have been 
 broken off and the bulk of our men transferred to the 
 neighbourhood of Ypres in preparation for the fighting 
 which will be described later. The French offensive, 
 however, near Rheims had been held up by the bad 
 weather and it was therefore desirable to continue 
 to engage the enemy at Arras. Accordingly on 23rd 
 April a fresh assault was opened between Croisilles 
 and Gavrelle and also near Lens. The 30th and 50th 
 Divisions advanced near Cherisy, the 15th took, but 
 lost, Guemappe, the 29th advanced to the east of 
 Monchy, the 51st was heavily engaged at Roeux, the 
 63rd captured Gavrelle, and the 5th was successful 
 in a minor operation south-west of Lens. Guemappe 
 was retaken by us next day
 
 63 
 
 On the 28th the attack was renewed on a front of 
 eight miles north of Monchy, when the 12th Division 
 was successful between Monchy and the Scarpe, the 
 2nd near Oppy and the Canadians at Arleux. On 3rd 
 May in an attack extending from Bullecourt to Fresnoy 
 ground was gained at each of these places, at the 
 former by the Australians and at the latter by the 
 Canadians. The Australians, being open to attack 
 on three sides, were hard pressed, but in spite of many 
 counter-attacks held their ground for two weeks until 
 the advance of troops on each flank relieved the 
 pressure. 
 
 On 5th May the French captured the Chemin-des- 
 Dames, to the east of Soissons, and, General Petain 
 having now succeeded General Nivelle, it was agreed 
 that the main effort of the British should be shifted 
 from Arras northward to the neighbourhood of Ypres. 
 The attention of the enemy continued to be engaged, 
 but now various feints were employed for the purpose. 
 One of the most amusing consisted of a heavy bom- 
 bardment of the German lines followed by the appear- 
 ance in No Man's Land of numerous troops and tanks. 
 These were all dummies manipulated by ropes but 
 they effectually deceived the enemy, for in a subsequent 
 communique he claimed that the attack had been 
 annihilated. There was still serious fighting, however, 
 and on the 8th our men gained a footing in Bulle- 
 court, but did not capture the whole until ten days 
 later. On the 8th Fresnoy was lost but Roeux and 
 the adjoining chemical works, which had been con- 
 tinually changing hands for over a month, were, 
 between the 12th and the 14th, finally captured and 
 held. Between 20th May and i6th June possession 
 was gradually obtained of a sector of the enemy's line 
 from Bullecourt to the west of Fontaine-lez-Croisilles. 
 On 14th June the crest of Orange Hill to the east of 
 Monchy was captured by a surprise attack. Many 
 fierce counter-attacks followed but, although advanced
 
 64 
 
 posts changed hands frequently, the main hne, which 
 gave important facilities for observation, remained 
 permanently in our possession. 
 
 In the second phase of the battle the Hne was 
 advanced only about a mile, but 8,000 prisoners were 
 captured, with 57 guns, bringing the total gains up to 
 21,000 prisoners and 257 guns, in addition to many 
 machine-guns and trench mortars and immense 
 quantities of war material. About twelve miles of 
 the Hindenburg line or of systems allied to it were 
 captured. Our total casualties amounted to 196, no. ^ 
 
 Captain A. C. Hancock, M.C. and bar (R.A.M.C, 
 Asylums) received a second bar to his M.C. when " he 
 established his advanced dressing station in a village, 
 although it was under very heavy shell fire. He 
 attended and evacuated a very large number of 
 wounded, working all night, finally going out himself 
 along the front to see if there were any left." In the 
 fighting at Oppy Lieut, (afterwards Captain) F. G. 
 Bull (23rd R. Fus., Clerk) was awarded a bar to his 
 M.C, " for his conspicuous gallantry ... as battalion 
 signalling officer when, in spite of continuous heavy 
 shelling and constant moves over difficult ground, he 
 maintained communications." Capt. A. A. Riley 
 (7th Middx., Comp.) received the M.C. for his con- 
 spicuous gallantry near Monchy on 3rd May when " an 
 assault having failed, and most of his officers being 
 casualties, he collected and re-organised all the men he 
 could find and formed a strong front against counter- 
 attacks by occupying and linking up a line of shell- 
 holes. After his battahon was relieved he remained 
 behind to guide the stretcher-bearers to the wounded, 
 thereby saving many lives." On the same date near 
 the river Cojeul Co. Sergt-Maj. E. J. P. Dainty (2nd 
 Lond., Educ.) won the D.C.M., " for conspicuous 
 gallantry and devotion to duty in consohdating 
 and defending a position which had become almost 
 
 ' Capt. P. E. Wright, At the Supreme War Council, p. 33.
 
 » 65 
 
 untenable through flanking and frontal fire. His total 
 indifference to danger restored the situation at a very 
 critical moment when no officers were on the spot." 
 The M.M. was awarded to R. Bristow (R.A.M.C, 
 Educ), for attending to wounded men during a four 
 days' continuous attack by the British, to J. Ethering- 
 ton (6th R. W. Rents, Asylums) when " in charge of 
 a bombing section . . , with the help of his comrades 
 he put enemy's machine gun out of action and held 
 the trench until reinforcements arrived," and to Lance- 
 Corp. W. W. Cracknell (ist Bord., Comp.) who, on 
 i9th/2oth May at Monchy " carried messages ... all 
 night through the heaviest barrages. At one time, 
 when things were critical, he carried a message through 
 a terrific machine-gun fire and, . . . though wounded, 
 carried on and delivered the message. . . . When his 
 officer was knocked out he acted as N.C.O., and by his 
 great courage, coolness and tireless energy was in- 
 valuable to his company commander." Staff-Sergt. D, 
 Keenan (R.A.M.C. Asylums) and Bombr. W. T. Mills 
 (R.F.A., L.F.B.) won the M.M. for gallantry in action. 
 In the later fighting Corporal H. J. Hollins (9th 
 E. Surr., Tram.) was killed near Lens on 17th April, 
 and William Johnston (R.G.A., Educ.) near Arras on 
 the 19th, W. G. Udall (R.E., Educ.) wounded in this 
 sector on the 20th, died on the 22nd. On the 23rd 
 Lieut. R. D. Wills, M.M. (5th Bord., Arch.), was 
 killed near Wancourt, G. E. F. Gray (19th Manch., 
 Parks) near Monchy, and C. T. Barker (R.N. Div., 
 Parks) near Gavrelle, and on the 24th Victor Williams 
 (2nd R. Fus., Asylums) near Monchy, while on the 
 28th P. J. Martin (7th R. Fus., Parks) died of wounds 
 received two days before in the Gavrelle sector. On 
 the 29th Lieut. M. E. Wardley (22nd R. Fus., Educ.) 
 and H. R Ponton, A.R.LB.A. (17th R. Fus., Arch.) 
 were killed near Oppy or Gavrelle and on the 30th 
 A. H. Brownsword (R.G.A., Estates and Val.) died 
 of wounds received at Vimy Ridge on the 21st.

 On ist May T. W. Burton (7th E. Surr., Tram.) 
 was killed near Monchy, on the 2nd Percy Chorley 
 (R.E., Educ.) near Guemappe, on the 3rd Corporal

 Battle of Messines, 1917. 
 
 It has been explained (see p. 15) how during the 
 first Battles of Ypres the Germans pressed the British 
 back from the Messines-Wytschaete ridge, the highest 
 ground near the city, and how they were thus able 
 to overlook and, in places, to enfilade the British Hues 
 to the south and south-east of Ypres and to the north- 
 east of Armentieres. 
 
 The enemy's position here, already of great natural 
 strength, had been so well fortified that it might 
 have been regarded as impregnable. One system of 
 trenches skirted the western foot of the ridge, a 
 second, to the west of Messines and Wytschaete, 
 defended the crest, and a third, to the east of Oost- 
 taverne, protected the eastern part of the ridge. In 
 addition, numerous woods, hamlets and farmhouses 
 had been converted with great skill and industry into 
 strong points which would form centres for rallying 
 or defence,^ 
 
 The usual preparations for bringing forward troops, 
 guns, ammunition and stores were of course much 
 impeded by the fact that the enemy had direct observa- 
 tion over our movements. These labours had also to be 
 supplemented by the construction of a series of mines. 
 In all twenty-four were formed, nineteen of which 
 were used for the assault. The enemy, aware of his 
 danger, tried to avert it by means of counter-mines, 
 and at Hill 60 and the Bluff in particular under- 
 ground fighting continued for months. In spite of 
 this and of difficulties from springs and streams which

 68 
 
 were liable to flood the work, over 8,000 yards of 
 gallery were driven and one million pounds of explo- 
 sive were stored therein. 
 
 At 3.10 am. on 7th June the nineteen mines were 
 exploded, one at Spanbroekmolen forming a crater 
 140 yards across and another, near Hill 60, taking up 
 with it a whole company of Wurtembergers. Simul- 
 taneously the final bombardment opened and the 
 attack was launched on a front of ten miles from the 
 north of Ploegsteert Wood to a point just north of 
 Hill 60. The front system offered practically no 
 resistance and by noon the Anzac Corps on the right 
 had captured Messines, the 36th and i6th Divisions 
 had captured Wytschaete, the 41st had reached a 
 formidable position in a sunken road known as the 
 Dammstrasse, and the 47th had fought its way from 
 the Bluff along the Ypres-Comines canal. The infantry 
 made such rapid progress that, over the broken 
 ground, the artillery and tanks could hardly keep 
 pace with them, and when, early in the afternoon, the 
 Oosttaverne line was reached they halted there to 
 enable a new assault to be organised. This was as 
 successful as the former, and by the evening the whole 
 line was in our hands. A violent counter-attack on 
 the 8th was repulsed at all points. The progress on 
 the right caused the Germans to the north of the river 
 Lys to vacate their trenches which were promptly 
 occupied. Also on the 14th we made a slight advance 
 along most of the line reached on the 7th, but there- 
 after no further efforts were made to exploit the success. 
 
 By this victory a standing menace to two sections 
 of our line was removed, the enemy was deprived 
 of a commanding position on the defence of which 
 he had lavished much skill and labour, bis lines were 
 pierced to a depth in some parts of three miles, and 
 in addition to many killed and wounded he lost 7,200 
 prisoners. Much material and stores, including 67 guns, 
 were captured. Our total casualties were about 16,000.

 The effect of the initial success was not marred, as at 
 the Somme, at Arras, and later in the year at Pass- 
 chendaele, by long and costly attempts to carry on 
 the action without effective artillery preparation 
 and ample supphes of all kinds. Mr. John Buchan in 
 his History (vol. xx. p. 71) says of this brilliant 
 engagement that it will rank " with Nivelle's two 
 victories at Verdun, in the winter of 1916, as a perfect 
 instance of the success of the limited objective." 
 
 Lieut. W. J. Field (ist R. Fus., Educ.) in the attack 
 on the 7th opposite the Dammstrasse "... showed 
 great promptness and good leadership in capturing 
 two machine-guns. . . . He also captured many 
 prisoners and by his determination and resource many 
 casualties were avoided." He was awarded the M.C. 
 G. F. Bell (14th Northld. Fus., Asylums) received 
 the M.M. for bravery under heavy fire when, though 
 wounded, he brought in a wounded officer and kept 
 up constant communications for three days and two 
 nights. 
 
 On the 7th, the opening day of the battle, the 
 Council lost only two of its staff, Harry Amos 
 (Tramways) and H. S. Zoller (Education), both of the 
 2ist Londons, who were killed in the advance along 
 the Ypres-Comines canal. Lieut. E. N. Makeham 
 (13th Middx., Clerk) who was wounded and missing 
 on the loth, died a prisoner of war on an unknown 
 date. Sergt. J. E. Hughes (12th R. Fus., Pub. H.) was 
 killed, probably in this part, on the i6th, as his division, 
 the 24th, was in reserve behind St. Eloi on the 9th. 
 
 Lombartzyde. 
 The following incident is worthy of mention. 
 Towards the end of June, in preparation for the third 
 Battle of Ypres, the British took over from the French 
 a short sector of the front extending from the Belgian 
 coast to the south of Nieuport. The part near the 
 coast was defended by breastworks in the sand dunes, 
 and, being intersected by several canals and approached
 
 70 
 
 from the rear only by floating bridges, did not form 
 a satisfactory position. The enemy, reaUsing this and 
 suspecting an attack along the coast, took the initiative, 
 and on loth July opened an intense bombardment 
 which flattened out the breastworks and destroyed all 
 the bridges. It is said that as many as 182 batteries 
 were available for this, while only 13 were ready for 
 the defence,-^ An attack in great strength then followed 
 which so completely overwhelmed the ist Northamp- 
 tons and the 2nd K.R.R., which were holding the line, 
 that out of the two battaUons, numbering perhaps 
 from 1,200 to 1,500 men, only 74 escaped by swimming 
 the Yser in rear. 
 
 H. H. Chaplin (K.R.R., Asylums) was awarded the 
 M.M. for bravery shown in this engagement. 
 
 Battles of Ypres, 1917. 
 It wiU be remembered that in the first Battle of 
 Ypres the enemy captured ground to the south of 
 the city, and, in the second ground to the north and 
 east which completely commanded the defences. The 
 enemy was superior in numbers and in gun-power and, 
 as it was not possible to regain the lost positions, it 
 was suggested more than once that the place should 
 be abandoned, and that a new line which could be 
 defended more easily and with fewer losses should be 
 taken up on higher ground to the west. This was not 
 agreed to and so, for well over two years, our men 
 continued, at the price of heavy casualties, to hold on 
 to their inferior positions. Early in 1917 it was decided 
 to commence operations in the summer for freeing 
 the sahent and for deahng with the submarine peril 
 by capturing the Passchendaele ridge from which 
 long range guns could fire upon the enemy's sub- 
 marine bases at Bruges, Zeebrugge and Ostend. This 
 plan had to be subordinated to the French offensive, 
 and to meet their wishes the fighting at Arras was 
 prolonged into the early part of the summer. As it

 71 
 
 was not possible for our forces to conduct at the same 
 time two offensives on a large scale, this led to the 
 work at Ypres being postponed. However, in June, 
 the fighting at Arras died down and by the capture 
 of the I\Iessines ridge the way was, to some extent, 
 cleared for the proposed attack further north. The 
 preparations for this were more than usually difficult, 
 for, as the commander-in-chief wrote in his despatch, 
 "on no previous occasion . . . had the whole of the 
 ground from which we had to attack been so com- 
 pletely exposed to the enemy's observation." 
 
 All preliminaries having been at length completed, 
 the opening of the attack was fixed for 25th July, but 
 a few days before that date the Germans withdrew 
 many of their batteries to safer positions. The attack 
 was therefore postponed while these new positions 
 were being identified by the airmen and dealt with by 
 the artillery, and a succession of cloudy days led to a 
 further postponement until the 31st, On the 27th 
 the enemy's trenches near the Yser canal were found 
 to be empty, so that this formidable obstacle was at 
 once crossed and the position occupied by the French 
 to the north of Boesinghe and by the Guards Division 
 to the east. 
 
 The main battle may be conveniently divided into 
 five phases corresponding with our chief attacks as 
 follows: (i) 31st July to 15th August, (2) 1 6th August 
 to 19th September, (3) 20th September to 3rd October, 
 (4) 4th to 25th October, and (5) 26th October to the 
 early part of November.^ 
 
 First Phase, ^ist July to i^th August. 
 
 The battle opened on 31st July with an attack on 
 a front of fifteen miles between the river Lys to the 
 south and Steenstraat on the north, the main attack 
 being directed upon the sector, seven and a half miles 
 wide, from the Zillebeke-Zandvoorde road to Boesinghe. 
 On the right, where the attack was not pressed, only the

 72 
 
 enemy's front line was captured, but on the northern 
 half of the advance both his first and second systems 
 were taken. In detail, the 24th Division captured 
 part of Shrewsbury Forest, the 30th Sanctuary Wood, 
 the 8th Hooge and Bellewaarde ridge, the 15th Frezen- 
 berg, the 55th and 39th St. Julien, the 51st land to the 
 north-west of that village, and the 38th Pilckem. 
 Two French divisions on our left were equally suc- 
 cessful, advancing to the Steenbeek and capturing 
 Bixschoote, and all these gains were held against 
 numerous counter-attacks. Our men took over 6,000 
 prisoners and 25 guns. 
 
 During the afternoon rain began to fall and con- 
 tinued with hardly a break for four days. This put 
 an end to all reconnaissance by aeroplane, and it also 
 turned the low-lying shell-torn area over which we 
 had just advanced into a morass. Movement through 
 this was possible only along well-defined tracks which 
 soon became marks for the enemy artillery. On the 
 enemy's side the ground was as yet comparatively 
 undamaged, and he was therefore able with com- 
 parative freedom to re-organise his defences, and to 
 bring up reinforcements and supplies. 
 
 During the prehminary operations Corp. A. G. 
 Buck (R.F.A., Ch. Engr.) won the M.M., for con- 
 spicuous gallantry near Armentieres on 28th/29th 
 July, when at great personal risk, and although suffer- 
 ing from the effects of gas, he remained at work repair- 
 ing telephone lines which were repeatedly cut by shell 
 fire. Sergt. J. Orrin (R.E., Housing) gained the M.M. 
 on 3oth/3ist July, when an emplacement for firing 
 projectors for oil bombs was heavily shelled. Although 
 the officer in charge was killed, Sergt. Orrin carried on 
 with his work, and by his bravery and example 
 encouraged all other ranks who were engaged with 
 him. On many previous occasions he had performed 
 excellent service under adverse conditions. 
 
 On 31st July A. I. Brown (i8th K.R.R.. Tram.)
 
 73 
 
 was killed near Hollebeke, Lieut. W. J. Field, M.C. 
 (ist R. Fus., Educ.) near Clonmel Copse to the north 
 of Shrewsbury Forest, Co. Sergt.-Maj. PL P. McAlister 
 (2nd Rif. Bde., Educ.) near Verlorenhoek, and Lance- 
 Corp. J. L Cohen (2nd Wilts., Educ.) and W. B. 
 Lewis (i2th R. Fus., Tram.) at places unknown. M. W. 
 Churchill (12th R. Fus., Tram.) was killed between 
 31st July -and 3rd August, George Penfold (R.G.A., 
 Asylums) was killed near Zillebeke on 4th August, 
 Lance-Corp. A. E. Bennett (12th E. Surr., Asylums) 
 on the 5th, John White (R. Ir. Rif., Ch. Engr.) near 
 Frezenberg on the 6th, Victor Bown (R.F.A., Asylums) 
 on the loth, and Corporal J. F. Patterson (M.G.C., 
 Tram.) near Zillebeke on the 14th. W. J. Colverd 
 (R.F.A., Tram.) died on the i6th of wounds received 
 the day before. W. E. Goddard (R.F.A., Tram.) died 
 on the 29th of wounds received on the 5th. 
 
 Second Phase, i6th August to igth September. 
 
 On i6th August the attack was resumed on a line 
 forming roughly a quadrant of a circle from the 
 Menin road round through St. Julien to the French 
 north-west of Langemarck. The enemy in the southern 
 part of this sector had adopted a new method of 
 defence, and, instead of manning a series of trenches, 
 he divided his troops among numerous " pill-boxes " 
 very strongly built of reinforced concrete. These 
 were distributed in depth and, being stoutly defended 
 with machine-guns, formed a serious obstacle. From 
 the Menin road through Frezenberg to St. Julien 
 little progress was made by the 8th and 56th Divisions, 
 but to the north-west of the latter village we were 
 more successful, the nth and 48th Divisions getting 
 a footing in the third trench system, and the 20th and 
 29th Divisions capturing Wijdendrift and Lange- 
 marck. On our left the French were also successful 
 as far north as Drie Grachten. Thirty guns were taken 
 and over 2,100 prisoners. The weather again broke 
 up and, as no big attack was practicable in so
 
 74 
 
 water-logged a country, the rest of the month was 
 devoted to local operations against various strong 
 points. 
 
 Lieut. H. W. Fisher (R.F.A., Educ.) won the M.C. 
 near Polygon Wood on 17th August when "he was 
 in charge of an observation party attached to an 
 assaulting battalion. He followed the infantry closely 
 in the attack, and twice went to the most forward 
 position under heavy fire and brought back information 
 of the utmost value." Co, Sergt.-Maj. J. C. Cairns 
 (Oxf. and Bucks L.I., Educ.) was awarded the D.C.M. 
 on 22nd August and Co. Sergt.-Maj. W. A. Humphreys 
 (R.E., Educ.) the M.M. about this time, but no details 
 are available. In the fighting at Westhoek the latter 
 gained a bar to his M.M. 
 
 The 1 6th of August was a day of heavy casualties 
 among the staff. W. J. Relf (ist R. Dub. Fus., Tram.) 
 F. C. Brook (8th R. Dub. Fus., Asylums) Sergt. E. C. 
 Brown (R.H.A., Parks) and Corp. G. A. J. Clarkson 
 (7th Yorks L.L, Tram.) were killed in the salient 
 at various places unknown, Sergt. Ernest Swanson 
 (5th Lond., Educ.) at Glencorse Wood, C. P. Norby 
 (13th R. Irish Rif., Tram.), G. K. Lenney (13th R. 
 Irish Rif., Parks) and Lance-Corp. H. W. Baker 
 (12th R. Irish Rif., Parks) at the Frezenberg ridge, 
 Alfred Chaney (2nd R. Dub. Fus., Parks) at the 
 Hannebeek and A. J. Madden (8th Northd. Fus., 
 Tram.) and W. J. Skipp (8th Northd. Fus., Tram.) 
 between St. JuHen and Poelcappelle. 
 
 H. T. J. Kenyon (R.A.M.C, Educ.) was killed on 
 the 17th, F. T. Townsend (2nd Middx., Asylums) 
 wounded that day near the Hannebeek, died on the 
 i8th, Corp. George Brooker (20th Lond., Educ.) on 
 the night of 20th/2ist, Lieut. Wilham Hornsby (6th 
 Somers. L.I., Educ.) at Glencorse Wood on the 21st, 
 Patrick Fitzgerald (7th Wore, Asylums) on the 26th. 
 W. J. Potter (i8th K.R.R., Educ.) was killed on 
 19th September near Shrewsbury Forest.
 
 75 
 Third Phase, 20th September to yrd October. 
 
 Early in September the weather improved and 
 enabled the artillery and other preparations for 
 another attack to proceed. This was launched, after 
 a night of rain, in a mist on the morning of 20th 
 September on a front of eight miles between the 
 Comines canal on the south and the Ypres-Staden 
 railway on the north. Few points which can be 
 identified on a sketch map were included in the 
 objectives, so here it must suffice to say that at all 
 parts the advance to an average depth of 1,000 yards 
 was successful, the victorious divisions, counting from 
 the south, being the 19th, 39th, 4th and 23rd between 
 the canal and the Menin road, the Austrahan Corps 
 between the Menin road and the Ypres-Roulers rail- 
 way (in which sector they captured Inverness Copse 
 and Glencorse Wood and gained a footing in Polygon 
 Wood) and the 9th, 55th, 58th, 51st, and 20th be- 
 tween the Ypres-Roulers and Ypres-Staden railways. 
 The high ground, crossed by the Menin road, which 
 had so long formed the object of very fierce fighting 
 now passed into our possession. In addition, over 
 3,000 prisoners and a number of guns were taken. 
 Numerous counter-attacks followed which, though 
 gaining local successes, were eventually beaten off. 
 
 On the 26th the advance was resumed on a front 
 of six miles from the Menin road northwards to the 
 north-east of St. Julien. The Australians captured 
 Polygon Wood, the 3rd Division Zonnebeke and the 
 59th and 58th Divisions a series of positions to the 
 east and north-east of St. Juhen. The prisoners 
 numbered 1,600. 
 
 Lieut, (afterwards Capt.) R. A. Nicholl (R.E., Educ.) 
 was awarded the M.C. about this time for his gallantry 
 in laying " a pipe-line forward under incessant shell 
 fire. It was due to his energy and encouragement 
 that the Hue was completed in time for operations." 
 O.M. and Hon. Lt. F. Poole (R.A.M.C, Asylums) won
 
 76 
 
 the M.C. " He remained at the advanced collecting 
 station for several days organising the rationing of the 
 wounded, and daily visited the relay posts and regi- 
 mental aid posts. . . . During heavy shelling he helped 
 to withdraw the wounded, and lives were saved by his 
 action and example." Sergt. E. A. Rose (R.E., Educ.) 
 was awarded the D.C.M. for exceptional gallantry and 
 devotion to duty between March and September. " On 
 September i8th and 19th he worked day and night 
 under incessant fire to put through a buried cable 
 route to the front line." 
 
 On 20th September Lieut. H. P. Oates (5th King's 
 Liverpool, Educ.) and T. H. Tigg (R.A.M.C, Tram.) 
 were killed near the Menin road, Co. Sergt-Maj. W. H. 
 Carr (2/6th Lond., Educ.) near St. Julien and F. W. A. 
 Smith (12th R. Suss., Educ.) at some place unknown, 
 Co. Sgt.-Maj. L. Dimond (2 /5th Lond., Educ), wounded 
 near St. Julien, and Lieut. S. P. Siebert (i6th Rif. 
 Bde., Educ), wounded near the Menin road, died on 
 the 2ist, and on the same day were killed Charles 
 Miller (12th E. Surr., Tram.), Lance-Corp. L. H. 
 Hymans (13th Lond., Educ.) and Sergt. T. W. Turner 
 (R.F.A., Tram.). Lieut. E. T. Winbush, B.Sc (R.F.A., 
 Educ), was killed on the 24th east of Zillebeke, H. G. 
 Joyce (ist R.W. Surr., Asylums), on the 25th near 
 the Menin road. On the 26th Lieut. H, C. Hattam, 
 F.R.H.S. (4th Suff., Educ). was killed near Inverness 
 Copse, and Harry Birch (14th Hamp., Asylums) near 
 the Menin road, Lance-Corp. S. E. Helyar (2 /6th 
 S. Staffs, Educ.) on the 27th near Polygon Wood 
 and Lieut. James Wrigley (R.G.A., Educ.) on the 
 29th. F. W. Kceler (13th K.R.R., Tram.) was killed 
 on 1st October near the Menin road, and on the 2nd, 
 Corp. E. R. Jolly (4th E. Surr., Educ.) near Polygon 
 Wood and Lieut. D. J. Wilhams (M.G.C., Educ.) near 
 Polderhoek.
 
 77 
 
 Fourth Phase, ^th to 25th October. 
 
 The weather had now cleared again and it was 
 decided to make a further advance between the 
 Menin road and the Ypres-Staden railway. Before the 
 advance began, however, the weather broke once more, 
 and on the night of the 3rd/4th the troops assembled 
 for the assault in a storm of wind and rain. Not- 
 withstanding these conditions the attack next morning 
 was successful, the 5th Division capturing Polderhoek, 
 the 2 1st Reutel, the AustraHans Broodseinde, the 
 New Zealanders Gravenstafel, and the nth and 4th 
 parts of Poelcappelle. The prisoners amounted to 
 more than 5,000 and, as the enemy was preparing an 
 attack and had moved up large forces into the battle 
 area, great numbers of his troops came under our 
 fire and suffered heavy casualties; in fact, Ludendorff 
 speaks of the German losses as " enormous." ^ 
 
 Rain continued to fall for several days, but on the 
 9th the assault was resumed, the right flank of the 
 advance being at Zonnebeke, The AustraHans and 
 some English troops made progress towards Passchen- 
 daele, the nth Division at Poelcappelle and the 4th 
 and 29th along the Ypres-Staden railway, while the 
 Guards reached the southern outskirts of Houthulst 
 Forest. Persistent rain put an end to further operations 
 except for slight advances on very Hmited frontages. 
 On 22nd October the i8th and 34th Divisions gained 
 important posts east of Poelcappelle and the 35th 
 with the French secured a footing in Houthulst Forest. 
 
 During this fighting the M.M. was won by H. 
 Johnston (Beds, Asylums) at Hooge, and by Sergt, 
 J. A. Lingwood (H.A.C., L.F.B.) but no details are 
 available. 
 
 On 4th October, Co. Sergt.-Maj. H. C. Robson 
 (3/4th R.W. Surr., Educ.) was killed near Brood- 
 seinde and Capt. A. C. Dancer, M.C. (5th Dorset, 
 Educ.) near Poelcappelle, on the 5th Co. Sergt.-Maj.

 Parks) was killed on the 21st, George Gaunt (R.E., 
 Asylums) near Zillebeke on the 23rd, and William 
 Clark (R.F.A., Ch. Engr.) on the 24th. 
 
 Fifth Phase, 26th October to early November. 
 
 Words are hardly adequate to describe the state of 
 the battlefield at this time. The continual shell fire 
 and the almost continual rain had reduced the country 
 for several miles on our side of the line to one immense 
 swamp. Only the lips of the craters divided one shell 
 hole from another, and all were filled with mud. In 
 many places, where peaceful agriculture had flourished 
 for centuries, there remained not one sign of the useful 
 activities of mankind; not a vestige could be seen 
 of crops or of orchards or of pasture lands ; houses and 
 villages had been entirely blotted out; roads could be 
 traced only by the stumps of trees which once had 
 formed pleasant avenues along their sides; the woods 
 had been levelled and the fragments of their trees used 
 for gun-pits or to form tracks across the waste. Away 
 from the roads and the duck-board tracks movement 
 was hardly possible. At each step men sank to the 
 knee or the thigh, not a few stumbled into the shell 
 holes and, encumbered with their rifle, ammunition
 
 79 
 
 and equipment, were drowned. Scores of tanks were 
 engulfed in the mud. 
 
 In such conditions it is not surprising that the 
 word Passchendaele came to be used by many, and 
 these were not all civiHans, as a symbol of waste and 
 useless suffering. But in battles and campaigns, as 
 in all other human affairs, it is not always the immedi- 
 ate object which must be regarded, and in the Pass- 
 chendaele operations other considerations, several of 
 which could not then be made public, had to be taken 
 into account.^ In the main these centred in the fact 
 that it was essential for the Allies to maintain the 
 initiative and at all costs to prevent the enemy from 
 moving troops to other fronts. The other AUies were 
 faced with important crises, and could not give much 
 assistance. The failure of the French offensive in 
 Champagne (see p. 62) was succeeded in May and 
 June by serious mutinies in their army. This, in the 
 opinion of Gen. Gouraud, was the most critical period 
 of the war. 2 The Russian revolution in March was 
 followed by the rapid decay of discipline, so that by 
 July the Russian armies had ceased to be a fighting 
 force. In the latter part of October the Itahans were 
 defeated at Caporetto with the loss of 200,000 prisoners 
 and 2,000 guns. The Americans who had entered the 
 war in April, 1917, were still training the troops who 
 were to fight for them. Of all the AUies, therefore, 
 only the British were capable at the time of engaging 
 the enemy's attention, and it was specially necessary 
 for them to do this because plans were afoot for the 
 surprise attack at Cambrai (see p. 82) from which 
 great results were expected. 
 
 The battle therefore had to proceed, and on 26th 
 October, in a downpour of rain which lasted all day, 
 the Canadians advanced along the Ravebeek towards 
 Passchendaele. On their left the R. Naval and the

 58th Divisions were successful to the east and north 
 of Poelcappelle. The 5th and 7th Divisions captured 
 Gheluvelt which had been lost three years before, 
 but their rifles, choked with mud during the advance, 
 were useless and they had to withdraw. On the 30th 
 the attack was continued, when the Canadians reached 
 the outskirts of Passchendaele and the R. Naval and 
 58th Divisions made what little progress was possible 
 across the swamps on the lower ground to the north- 
 west. On 6th November the Canadians rushed the 
 village and high ground to the north and north-west, 
 and on the loth, having consoHdated their gains, 
 made a further advance to the north. 
 
 The capture of this high ground marks the close 
 of the battle which, except for the short intervals 
 enforced by the weather or by the need of preparing 
 for the separate phases of the attack, had been carried 
 on continuously for more than three months. In 
 this gigantic conflict some 45 British divisions " by the 
 exercise," in the words of the commander-in-chief, 
 " of courage, determination and endurance to a 
 degree which has never been surpassed in war," 
 defeated y^ German divisions with the loss of 24,065 
 prisoners, 74 guns and over 1,000 machine-guns, etc. 
 On a front of ten miles and in face of every kind of 
 difficulty they advanced to a depth varying from one 
 to nearly six miles, and by wresting from the enemy 
 practically all the high land near the city freed our 
 communications through Ypres from the dangers 
 which had so long threatened them. But these gains 
 were made at a terrible cost, for our casualties, includ- 
 ing the comparatively slight losses at Cambrai (see p. 
 82), are said to have been 454,463. ^ 
 
 Capt. P. F. Watts (4th Beds, Educ.) was awarded 
 the M.C. for conspicuous gallantry in the advance on 
 Passchendaele on 30th October when he re-organised 
 and consolidated a line of posts after all other officers

 in his sector had become casualties. Petty Offr. W. 
 Jarman (R. Nav. Div., Ch. Engr.) was awarded the 
 M.M. for his gallantry in the same neighbourhood, 
 when during a heavy counter-attack he defended with 
 a machine-gun a trench which had been abandoned 
 by other troops. Lance-Corp. T. J. Gunter (RE., 
 Oxf. and Bucks L.I., Educ.) won the M.M. for his 
 gallantry in action at Houthulst Forest during the 
 eaily part of November, and Sergt. H. E. Hayward 
 (R.F.A., Asylums) for bravery in action in front of 
 Ypres. 
 
 Lieut. W. J. Reed (8th Devons, Educ), wounded 
 near Gheluvelt on 26th October, died two days later 
 as a prisoner of war, W. D. Shea (2/28th Lond., Educ.) 
 and H. N Field (4th Beds, Arch.) were killed on the 
 30th near Passchendaele, and Provost-Sergt. W. J. 
 Laird in the same neighbourhood on 4th November, 
 J. H. Counter, M.M. (ist Devons, Ch. Engr.), near 
 Polderhoek on the 6th, and Bombr. Henry Lilburn 
 (R.F.A., Tram.) near Passchendaele on the 8th. 
 
 Lens. 
 
 In the Battle of Arras and in the fighting which 
 followed it much ground was gained near Lens. 
 Towards the middle of August, in order to prevent 
 the enemy from concentrating all his attention on 
 resisting our advance from Ypres, the assault was 
 renewed to the north-west of the town. On the 15th 
 the Canadians, attacking on a front of about 2\ miles, 
 captured Hill 70, which had been won but lost again 
 in the Battle of Loos, the mining suburbs of Cite 
 Ste. Elizabeth, Cite St. Emile and Cite St. Laurent, 
 the whole of Bois Rase and the western half of Bois 
 Hugo which had also figured in the earlier battle. 
 Six days later they closed in upon the town from the 
 west and south west. ^

 Battle of Camhrai. 
 
 It was well known that, in order to withstand the 
 advance at Ypres, the enemy had withdrawn troops 
 from other portions of the front, and a surprise attack 
 was therefore planned on a part of the defences thus 
 weakened. The sector near Cambrai, where several 
 important roads and railways converged, was selected 
 for the attempt. In order to increase the surprise, 
 it was decided not to prelude the attack by a long 
 bombardment, but to rely upon tanks for smashing 
 the enemy's wire and for dealing with his strong posts 
 and machine-guns. Our Hne here, opposite the 
 Hindenburg line, ran, roughly, south-east and north- 
 west. Facing it across a shght dip was the Flesquieres 
 ridge defended by the Hindenburg support line, and 
 behind that again was another dip, the high ground 
 on the further side of which was crowned by Bourlon 
 Wood.i 
 
 Some 400 tanks were assembled with great secrecy 
 just behind the line between Gonnelieu and Hermies, 
 chiefly in Havrincourt Wood, and at 6.20 on the 
 morning of 20th November the attack was opened. 
 Although there was no rain the sky was cloudy, and 
 the enemy's chances of observation were diminished 
 by the smoke barrage which preceded the tanks. At 
 the same time, to add to his confusion and to prevent 
 him from moving reinforcements to the part actually 
 threatened, subsidiary attacks were launched east 
 of Epehy (see plan on p. 37) and between BuUecourt 
 and Fontaine - lez - Croisilles (see plan on p. 58) and 
 demonstrations were made with smoke, gas and 
 artillery on most of the British front south of the 
 Scarpe. Of these subsidiary attacks it will be sufficient 
 to say that at BuUecourt the 3rd and i6th Divisions 
 captured and held a very strong sector of trenches, 
 and took 700 prisoners. • 
 
 The main attack on a front of six miles was brilliantly 
 
 ' For plan, see p. 37.
 
 83 
 
 successful. The 12th Division, on the right, moving 
 along the Bonavis ridge, captured Lateau Wood, 
 the 20th La Vacquerie and Welsh Ridge, the 6th 
 Ribecourt, the 51st pushed forward as far as Fles- 
 quieres, the 62nd captured Havrincourt, Graincourt 
 and Anneux and the 36th trenches to the west of the 
 Canal du Nord. The 51st Division was held up at 
 Flesquieres, where a number of tanks were knocked 
 out, as mentioned by the commander-in-chief, " by 
 a German artillery officer who, remaining alone at his 
 battery, served a field-gun single-handed until killed 
 at his gun." The 29th Division passing between the 
 20th and 6th Divisions, seized Masnieres and Marcoing, 
 thus securing bridgeheads over the Canal de I'Escaut 
 (Scheldt Canal), which in this part formed the chief 
 defence of Cambrai. At Masnieres the bridge had 
 been damaged and unfortunately it broke down under 
 the weight of the first tank which attempted to cross it. 
 This left only one bridge for the advancing troops 
 and the accident, with the check at Flesquieres, 
 went far towards limiting the success of the day's 
 fighting. Early on the 21st Flesquieres fell, the 51st 
 Division pressing forward reached the southern out- 
 skirts of Bourlon Wood and, with the help of other 
 troops, captured Cantaing and Fontaine-notre-Dame. 
 The latter was lost next day, but as some set-off the 
 56th Division stormed a strong point known as 
 Tadpole Copse, on the left of our advance. 
 
 Owing to the comparatively few troops available 
 it was originally proposed not to continue the advance 
 after forty-eight hours, but when that period had 
 elapsed the enemy was still holding Fontaine and 
 Bourlon Wood. As these completely commanded our 
 position north of Flesquieres it was essential either 
 that they should be stormed or that, giving up some 
 of our gains, we should retire to the Flesquieres ridge. 
 The capture of Bourlon Wood would seriously threaten 
 the enemy's line to the north if, indeed, it did not
 
 84 
 
 make it quite untenable, and with so great a prize 
 within reach it was decided to press on. On the 23rd 
 therefore the 51st Division made another attempt, 
 which eventually failed, on Fontaine, while the 40th 
 captured Bourlon Wood and part of the village 
 beyond. During the next few days these two villages 
 changed hands several times, but by about the 30th 
 the enemy appeared to have a firm hold of the villages 
 while we had an equally firm hold of the wood. 
 
 By that date the ten days' fighting had yielded 
 10,500 prisoners, half of whom were taken on the first 
 day, 142 guns and over 400 machine-gims, etc., with 
 great quantities of ammunition, stores and material. 
 The enemy's elaborate trenches were penetrated to a 
 depth of 4i miles, as great a distance as was gained 
 in more than three months' fighting on the Somme or 
 at Ypres. 
 
 Towards the end of November it was clear that the 
 enemy intended to counter-attack on an ambitious 
 scale. This opened on the 30th, the main attack being 
 from the north between Bourlon Wood and Tadpole 
 Copse, but it was preceded by a subsidiary attack 
 westwards upon our line to the south of Masnieres. 
 The hollows and folds usual in chalk country enabled 
 the enemy, assisted by a ground mist, to assemble, 
 without attracting notice, large bodies of infantry. 
 After a short bombardment, numbers of low-flying 
 aeroplanes rained machine-gun fire upon our trenches, 
 and immediately afterwards the attack was launched. 
 The left of the 55th Division was driven in and the 
 enemy, making great progress up 22 Ravine and across 
 the northern end of Bonavis Ridge, was able to take 
 the 12th and 20th Divisions in flank and rear. Villers 
 Guislain, Gonnelieu and Bonavis soon fell, and the 
 enemy even reached Gouzeaucourt, but was gallantly 
 driven out by the Guards Division which, on its way 
 to rest billets after heavy fighting at Fontaine and 
 Bourlon, was hurried into the conflict.
 
 85 
 
 In the main assault further north the 29th Division 
 at Masniercs, the 47th at Fontaine, the 2nd at Bourlon, 
 and the 56th at Moeuvres and Tadpole Copse beat off 
 numerous attacks with very heavy losses. Here and 
 there posts were overwhelmed or driven back by 
 superior numbers, but any important points were re- 
 gained by counter-attacks and the line was everywhere 
 maintained. 
 
 On ist December the Guards retook Gonnelieu and 
 Gauche Wood and even reached Villcrs Guislain, but 
 next day our troops were forced out of Gonnelieu, 
 During these two days many attacks in this sector 
 and in the Bourlon sector were driven off, but on the 
 3rd the Germans succeeded in capturing La Vacquerie. 
 
 Owing to the Germans' success at Villers Guislain 
 our position at Masnieres and Bourlon now formed 
 a dangerous salient. Troops were not available for 
 another offensive on a large scale, and it was therefore 
 decided to contract the line by withdrawing to the 
 northern slopes of the Flesqui^res ridge and to make 
 the necessary adjustments further south. The with- 
 drawal was commenced on the night of 4th /5th 
 December and was completed by the 7th without 
 molestation. The net result of the fighting since 
 2oth November was an advance of about 2}, miles 
 and the capture in addition to the prisoners, guns, 
 material, etc., already mentioned, of 12,000 yards of 
 the enemy's front line, a rather shorter length of the 
 Hindenburg and Hindenburg support lines and the 
 villages of Ribecourt, Flesquieres and Havrincourt. 
 On the other hand we lost an unimportant section of 
 hne near GonneHeu with 6,000 prisoners and 100 gims. 
 
 On 30th November J. C. Buckley (R.A.M.C, Educ.) 
 won the M.M. for attending single-handed to the 
 wounded under heavy shell fire, although he himself 
 was at the time severely wounded. At Tadpole Copse 
 on 2nd December Corporal (afterwards Sergt.) C. A. 
 Dearing, B.Sc. (5th Lond., Educ.) earned the M.M.
 
 86 
 
 " Under intense bombardment, he worked in the open 
 repairing lines and keeping communication between 
 the front line and battalion H.Q. Regardless of danger 
 he carried out this work throughout the day, and after 
 the battalion was relieved he remained behind for 
 several hours, again repairing the lines in order to 
 hand over communications to the relieving battalion," 
 
 In later fighting at this part Lieut. F. N. Stone 
 (21st Lond., Educ.) won the M.C. on 9th December 
 when the enemy attacked an adjoining battalion and 
 he " led a counter attack to relieve the pressure. 
 Though he was met by a superior force of the enemy, 
 he drove them back with great courage and skill and 
 held on to the ground gained until the line was re- 
 established." On the same date at Graincourt Lieut, 
 A. D. Barnes (23rd Lond,, Educ.) won the M.C. " for 
 conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty in an 
 advanced post which was repeatedly attacked by the 
 enemy. Time after time they obtained a footing in it 
 only to be driven out. He went about calmly en- 
 couraging the men and organising counter-attacks, 
 and was fighting continuously for six hours," 
 
 These striking results were obtained at a low cost 
 in casualties, and on 20th November, the opening day 
 of the attack, only two of the Council's staff were 
 killed, namely, Lance-Corp. S. F. Howard (nth Rif. 
 Bde., Stores) to the southward of Masnieres and R. H. 
 Barker (R.W. Surr., Tram.). Sergt. R. A. Wood (i6th 
 Lond., Educ.) at Tadpole Copse, and Arthur Ireland 
 (15th R. Irish Rif., Parks) possibly near Bullecourt, 
 were killed on the 22nd, I. C. Rixon (R.F.A,, Tram,) 
 on the 23rd, Lieut, F, G. Wheatcroft (13th E. Surr., 
 Educ) on the 25th near Bourlon. On 30th Nov. or 
 ist Dec. Sergt. Charles Brown, M.M. (4th Gren. Gds., 
 Parks) was killed at Gonnelieu, William Griffiths (i6th 
 R. Fus., Trams.) near Masnieres, Lance-Corp. W. A. 
 Legg (15th Lond., Educ.) near Bourlon, and Lieut. 
 J. W. Johnson, B.Sc. (Educ.) and Lance-Corp. W, P.
 
 87 
 
 Brill (Asylums), both of the 8th Middlesex, near Tad- 
 pole Copse. Thomas Thomas (15th Lond., Est. and 
 Vain.) died on 2nd December of wounds received near 
 Fontaine on 29th November, and Lance-Corp. S. F. 
 Long (23rd Lond., Tram.) on the 9th of wounds 
 received some days before. 
 
 General Fighting. 
 
 About this time Major F. W. Jackson (R.A.S.C, 
 Ediic.) was awarded the D.S.O. for the general excel- 
 lence of his work, and Major V. L. Connolly (R.A.M.C, 
 Asylums) the M.C. for gallantry in action. 
 
 Apart from the decorations awarded in the course 
 of the set engagements at Arras, Ypres and Cambrai, 
 E. Campion (R.A.M.C, Educ.) earned the M.M. for 
 courageous conduct during an enemy air raid at 
 Bandaghem, and Sub-Lieut. F. C. Stacey (R. Nav. 
 Div., Pub. Health) the M.C. for gallantry in action at 
 Welsh Ridge, near Cambrai, on 30th December.

 CHAPTER VI. 
 
 Western Front, 1918. 
 
 In the prolonged fighting which lasted for about six 
 months of the year 1917, the losses among the British 
 and Dominion troops were very heavy, and, as an 
 army had to be maintained for home defence, these 
 could not be made good. Early in 1918, in order to 
 meet this shortage, the number of battalions in a 
 division was reduced from 13 to 10, and the troops 
 surplus to this establishment were used to make up 
 the deficiencies in the remaining battalions. The 
 Germans had suffered as much, or perhaps more, but 
 Russia had now disappeared as a belligerent, and 
 copious reinforcements could be brought from the 
 eastern to the western front. The difficulties of the 
 situation were much increased because troops had 
 been sent to aid the Italians after their serious defeat 
 at Caporetto in 1917 (see p. 181), and because the 
 British Government decided to relieve the French of 
 the defence of a further sector of the front. This 
 decision was carried out during the winter of 1917-18 
 when the front from St. Quentin southwards to 
 Barisis on the Oise was taken over. The sector 
 measured 28 miles, bringing the total length held by 
 the British up to 125 miles. The French troops thus 
 relieved were formed into a reserve available for the 
 support of either army. 
 
 Early in 1918 it was obvious that the enemy would 
 soon be superior in numbers, and probably in muni- 
 tions. The United States had declared war on Ger- 
 many on 5th April, 1917, and it was decided, pending 
 the arrival of their troops to redress the balance, to 
 act on the defensive. Casualties became less numerous, 
 and in January only two of the Council's staff were 
 killed. Corporal A. A. Withey {2nd K.R.R., Tram.) on 
 the i6th and S. G. Blay (7th Buffs, Tram.) on the 19th,
 
 91 
 
 in February none, and in March, before the opening of 
 the German offensive, only three, namely, John 
 Lamont (14th Lond., Asylums) on the 12th north of 
 Arras, and Lance-Corp. P. W. T. Holmes (R.A.M.C, 
 Educ.) and Lance-Corp. T. E. Fox (ist Cameronians, 
 Tram.) who both died on the 13th of wounds received 
 the day before near Arras and Ypres respectively. 
 
 Captain G. Clark (General List, Educ.) was awarded 
 the M.C. for great zeal and efficiency about this time 
 in a forward area subject to shell-fire. 
 
 First Battles of the Somme. 1918. 
 
 In February it became clear that the enemy pro- 
 posed to take the offensive. It was known that many 
 divisions transferred from Russia and Italy were 
 receiving special training, and aerial reconnaissances 
 showed that communications were being improved, 
 and ammunition and supply dumps increased. To meet 
 this attack existing defences had to be strengthened 
 and new ones to be prepared, and communications, 
 especially in the Somme area, had to be improved. 
 These works entailed much extra labour, and, as a 
 greater length of line was being held with fewer troops 
 than heretofore, the opportunities for training such 
 new drafts as were being received were very Hmited. 
 
 The enemy's preparations covered most of our 
 front and, as all this could not be defended in equal 
 strength, it was necessary to decide at what points 
 ground could be yielded with least harm. In the 
 north the battle lines were only fifteen miles from 
 Dunkirk, and forty from Calais, and the possession 
 of these and the other Channel ports was essential 
 to our safety. The middle sector defended the few 
 remaining collieries in northern France still held by the 
 Allies, and also important railway points such as 
 Bethune and Arras. In either of these sectors any 
 extensive withdrawal would clearly be most dangerous. 
 The southern sector in front of Cambrai and St. 
 Quentin had in its rear the area devastated during the
 
 92 
 
 Somme fighting in 1916 and the German retreat in 
 1917, and here retreat was possible without greatly 
 improving the enemy's position or seriously harming 
 
 FIRST BATTLES OF THE SOMME, 1918. 
 
 our own. This sector was therefore held most 
 lightly. _ ^ , 
 
 On the morning of 21st March, after a violent 
 bombardment lasting some hours, the long expected
 
 93 
 assault opened on a front of about lifty miles from the 
 Oise nearly to the Scarpe. Until midday the battle- 
 field was obscured by a thick mist which greatly 
 favoured the assailants by completely covering them 
 from the view of our artillery and machine-gims. The 
 enemy outnumbered our men in the proportion of 
 five or more to one and, in face of such numbers, the 
 outpost line was soon surrounded, although the posts 
 themselves held out with the utmost gallantry for 
 many hours. In the words of the commander-in- 
 chief: " The prolonged defence of these different 
 localities, under conditions wliich left little hope of any 
 relief, deserves to rank among the most heroic actions 
 in the history of the British Army." 
 
 Several weeks of fine weather had made the marshes 
 between St. Quentin and La Fere easily passable by 
 infantry, so that the enemy in this part was able to 
 effect some sort of a surprise and to make good pro- 
 gress. This led to a withdrawal (58th and i8th Divs.) 
 being ordered to the Crozat Canal connecting the Oise 
 at La Fere with the Somme to the east of Ham. The 
 enemy was also successful at Ronssoy (i6th Div.) 
 to the south of Cambrai, and at Lagnicourt and 
 Bullecourt to the west (6th and 59th Divs.), and orders 
 were given for part of the saHent thus formed 
 opposite Cambrai to be vacated. Elsewhere the 
 attack was held up by our battle positions, the 
 24th Division at Le Verguier, the 21st at Epehy, and 
 the 17th on the Canal du Nord showing particular 
 gallantry. 
 
 On the 22nd the attack was renewed all along the 
 line in a dense mist, which as before greatly aided the 
 advance. The passage of the Crozat Canal was forced 
 at several points, but for the time the enemy was pre- 
 vented by a vigorous defence (58th Div.) from de- 
 veloping his advantage. Further north, that is to 
 the west and north-west of St. Quentin, he was more 
 successful, advancing four or five miles and causing
 
 94 
 
 us to vacate Epehy. He also made a substantial 
 advance to the west of Fontaine-lez-Croisilles, 
 
 On the 23rd the troops south of Ham were ordered 
 to withdraw across the Somme, but it was hoped to 
 hold, north of that town, the position which had been 
 specially laid out for the defence of the Peronne bridge- 
 head. Later the Fifth Army decided to abandon these 
 lines. This decision had far-reaching results and it 
 was criticised by the commander-in-chief on the 
 ground that, taken somewhat hurriedly, it greatly 
 interfered with the withdrawal of troops and stores, 
 with the destruction of the various bridges, and 
 generally with putting the river line into an adequate 
 state of defence. Other misfortunes followed during 
 the day, for our men were driven away from the 
 Crozat Canal and the enemy crossed the Somme near 
 Ham forcing a passage from the north. Further 
 north some confusion arose at the junction of the 
 Third and Fifth Armies, and near Ytres a gap was 
 left through which the enemy pressed. On the extreme 
 right of the enemy's advance Monchy and Guemappe 
 were evacuated by our troops. 
 
 On the 24th the enemy continued to develop the 
 success which he had gained at the junction of the 
 two armies, with the result that the part of the Fifth 
 Army to the north of the Somme was driven back 
 and, in the effort to keep in touch with it, the right 
 of the Third Army had to retire across the battle 
 fields of 1916. Higher up, that is to the south-east, 
 the river, owing to the dry weather, was not a very 
 formidable obstacle, and it was crossed at many points 
 to the north-west of Ham. On the right of our line 
 we were driven out of Chauny in a fog. 
 
 On the 25th strong attacks on the line to the north 
 of Bapaume were driven off but, although the left 
 of the Fifth Army was transferred to the Third Army 
 who were entrusted with the command of all troops 
 north of the Somme, the enemy continued to force
 
 95 
 his way through the gap formed on the 23rd. In spite 
 of all efforts this was so far from being closed that 
 reinforcements, moved up on the 25th from the Ancre 
 to Pozieres, found themselves unsupported on both 
 flanks and had to fall back upon the river. To the 
 south of the Somme where the French had now taken 
 over the defence, including the control of what British 
 troops still survived, the enemy captured Noyon and 
 Nesle and pushed us back from the part of the Hne 
 situated to the east aiid south of F.ise. 
 
 On the 26th the defence to the north of Albert 
 became stabilised roughly on the line held before the 
 Battle of the Somme in 1916 except near Arras, where 
 some of the gains made to the south-east of the city 
 in April, 1917, were maintained. Further south the 
 situation was less satisfactory. The troops there were 
 so reduced in numbers and so exhausted by the 
 continual marching and fighting that they were 
 ordered to withdraw to the line Le Quesnoy — Rosieres 
 — Bray, but, owing to a misunderstanding. Bray was 
 vacated and the retreat on the north side of the Somme 
 was continued westward. Another gap was formed, 
 this time near Roye between us and the French, and 
 it was only with very great difficulty that the enemy 
 was prevented from thrusting at once towards the 
 important railway junction of Montdidier. It was on 
 this day that General Foch was placed in supreme 
 control of the Allied troops in France and Belgium. 
 
 During the night of the 2 6th /27th Albert which, 
 although it was for two years immediately behind 
 the front line, had been free from the enemy since 
 September, 19 14, again fell into his hands. Our retreat 
 from Bray enabled troops on the 27th to be passed 
 across to the south side of the Somme in rear of the 
 Rosieres — Bray line. Rosieres stood fast, but the 
 line to the north as far as the river was withdrawn 
 to Hamel and to the south to Montdidier, which was 
 taken by the enemy from the French.
 
 96 
 
 The next day, the 28th, was marked by a signal 
 success. With the object of capturing Arras, retaking 
 the Vimy ridge, and so of relieving Lens, the enemy 
 shifted his main assault from the Somme to the Scarpe, 
 and early in the morning launched an attack with 
 great forces on both sides of the river. ^ The methods 
 which had obtained such great results further south 
 were again adopted, but this time, unaided by fog 
 or mist, failed completely. The 4th and 56th Divisions 
 to the north of the river held their main positions 
 against five German divisions, and to the south the 
 3rd and 15th Divisions were equally successful against 
 four German divisions. The attack was continued 
 southwards at various points but everywhere failed, 
 with enormous losses to the enemy. 
 
 To return to the southern area, a force, organised 
 under the orders of the Fifth Army Commander, 
 out of details, stragglers, army troops, etc., and 
 placed under the command of General Carey, had 
 been stationed on the 26th on the line Mezieres — 
 Marcelcave — Hamel and, as practically the only 
 reserves available in this part, came into action on the 
 28th. The enemy continued to press back the French 
 on our right and this advance, combined with the 
 advance along the Somme, made the sahent with 
 Harbonnieres and Rosieres at its apex so dangerous 
 that it had to be vacated, and our troops were with- 
 drawn to a line running roughly due south from Hamel. 
 
 By this time the enemy's attack had lost much of 
 its weight and on the 29th Carey's Force, assisted by 
 cavalry, took over the defence south of the Somme 
 and so enabled some of the much harassed divisions 
 to re-organise. On the 30th Demuin was lost and on 
 the 31st Moreuil. For some days after this the line 
 was comparatively quiet, but on 4th April in the course 
 of an attack between the Somme and our right at 
 
 ' The enemy troops were evidently prepared for an advance on 
 an am])itious scale, for one prisoner was found to be carrying six 
 days' rations, two blankets and a pair of new boots.
 
 97 
 Hangard and upon the French south of that point 
 we lost Hamel. Strong attacks next day at Hangard 
 and between Dernancourt, to the south of Albert, 
 and Bucquoy, to the north, were completely repulsed 
 at practically all points. When the fighting at length 
 died down we were holding south of the Somme a line 
 which passed to the west of Hamel and east of Villers 
 Bretonneux and Hangard. 
 
 Frequent local attacks ensued on different sectors, 
 and finally the Germans on 24th April attempted to 
 advance upon the whole of our front south of the 
 Somme. After a conflict between tanks, the first of 
 which there is record, and fierce fighting along the 
 whole front, the enemy broke through at Villers 
 Bretonneux and gained positions commanding Amiens. 
 This threat on so important a point was not to be 
 tolerated and a brilliant counter-attack, undertaken 
 at short notice on the following night (the 24th /25th) 
 by the Austrahans aided by the i8th Division, drove 
 the enemy back to the east of the village almost to 
 the line from which he had set out in the morning. 
 
 Thus ended the second Battle of the Somme, the 
 most serious defeat sustained by us during the war. 
 In about ten days of actual fighting the enemy 
 advanced on a front of forty miles to a depth of 
 twenty to forty miles, regained large areas which had 
 been won by the Allies only after months of desperate 
 fighting in 1916 and 1917, and captured and held such 
 places as Albert, Bray, Rosieres and Montdidier 
 which had not been in his possession since the opening 
 of the war and then only temporarily. He claimed 
 to have taken, chiefly from us, 70,000 prisoners and 
 1,100 guns. Immense quantities of stores and material, 
 which in so hurried a retreat were not destroyed, 
 fell into his hands. Our casualties in this battle, 
 and immediately afterwards at the Lys (see p. 102) 
 amounted to 400,000,^ most of them in the Somme area. 
 
 ^British Campaigns in the West, by Sir F. Maurice (p. liii), in 
 Findlay Muirhead's Belgium and Western Front.
 
 98 
 
 The German casualties were about the same, for they 
 have admitted^ the loss of 300,000 wounded and, as 
 the proportion of wounded to killed throughout the 
 war was usually three to one, these figures imply 
 a loss in killed of about 100,000. It is clear that 
 the legend, at one time current, that the defence 
 collapsed is a legend and nothing more. Only the 
 most resolute defence could have inflicted such 
 enormous casualties and have foiled the plan, sup- 
 ported by a great superiority in numbers and muni- 
 tions, of capturing Amiens and of separating the 
 British and French armies. 
 
 To meet these losses troops and munitions were 
 hurried out from England, troops were recalled to 
 France from Italy, Salonica, Palestine and elsewhere, 
 and President Wilson gave orders that the partially 
 trained American troops in France should be 
 temporarily incorporated with 'English or French 
 brigades. 
 
 In the operations described above the M.C. was won 
 by four of the Council's staff: 
 
 (i) Lieut. H. T. Haddocks (M.G.C., Comp.) on 
 2 1st March during a withdrawal at Le Mesnil, near 
 Peronne, " held on unsupported by infantry, until 
 almost surrounded, when he withdrew in good order 
 doing great execution as he retired. He was the last 
 to cross a bridge before its destruction." 
 
 (ii) Capt L. K. Spencer (Lond., Educ.) on 28th 
 March " handled his company in a difficult counter- 
 attack with great ability, and later, when it was 
 necessary to clear up the situation, he personally 
 reconnoitred in the face of machine-gun fire and 
 sniping, sending back invaluable information as 
 to the enemy's position. He was wounded while 
 doing this, but insisted on carrying on until the 
 advance and consolidation had been effected."

 by F. A. Holt (vol. i. p. 139),
 
 99 
 (iii) Lieut. A. P. Comyns (loth R. Welch Fus., 
 Clerk) at Hamel on 30th March, " when a con- 
 siderable length of trench on both sides had been 
 evacuated, held the trench with a Lewis gun and 
 three men, keeping up a steady fire and inflicting 
 many casualties until reinforcements arrived." 
 
 (iv) Lieut. D. J. Davies (R. Welch Fus., Educ). 
 " By his personal example, and by the excellent 
 fire control which he maintained, he kept his front 
 intact against repeated enemy attacks. At night he 
 went out on patrol on three occasions, capturing a 
 prisoner and killing a machine-gun crew and bringing 
 in the gun." 
 
 Co. Sergt.-Maj. J. C. Cairns, D.C.M. (Oxf. and Bucks 
 L.L, Educ.) received a bar to his D.C.M., but details 
 are lacking. Co. Sergt.-Maj. S. C. P. Drury, D.C.M. 
 (R.E., Educ.) received a bar to his D.C.M. for his 
 gallantry at Highland Ridge. " When his company 
 were advancing in the open and were met by very 
 heavy machine-gun fire, he walked up and down in 
 front of the line encouraging the men and ensuring 
 that the line was maintained in good order. Later, 
 under heavy fire, he withdrew the company in good 
 order, and assisted a pioneer battalion to fight a rear- 
 guard action." Sergt. (afterwards Regt. Sergt.-Maj.) 
 J. Wild (R.E., Asylums) won the D.C.M. near Albert, 
 but no details are available. 
 
 Corp. (afterwards Sergt.) F. Hills, M.M. (Lond., 
 Educ.) received a bar to his M.M. Towards the end of 
 March, between Bus and Bertincourt, he " carried 
 out patrol work under exceptionally trying conditions 
 and extreme closeness of contact with the enemy, 
 securing valuable information which enabled the 
 battalion to get clear when practically surrounded. 
 Throughout the whole of the withdrawal of March 
 and April he had charge of a platoon, and, by his own 
 coolness and courage, kept up the moral of his men at 
 all times."
 
 100 
 
 The M.M. was won by the undermentioned members 
 of the Council's staff: 
 
 (i) Sergt. E. Strugnell (15th Lond., Solr.) for 
 braverv in action near Cambrai on 21st March. 
 
 (ii) Sergt. (afterwards Co. Q.M.S.) P. J. W. 
 Pollard (Beds, Educ.) near Jussy on 22nd March, 
 " volunteered to take field kitchens and supplies to 
 troops in the line, under enemj' observation and 
 shell fire." 
 
 (iii) Sergt. J. R. Austin (R.G.A.. Parks) for 
 bravery at Bois Hullot, on 22nd March. 
 
 (iv) Sergt. P. H. Spowage (R. Fus., Educ.) on 
 23rd March, for the successful manner in which 
 he assumed command at Eaucourt I'Abbaye after 
 all his officers had become casualties. 
 
 (v) F. H. W. Briggs (R.A.M.C, Asylums) on 24th 
 March, near Guiscard " where, after he had been on 
 duty continuously for 36 hours, he voluntarily 
 searched for some French wounded who had been 
 left behind, and brought them to safety." 
 
 (vi) Sec.-Corp. E. H. Knowles (R.E., Housing) 
 near Ytres, for rescuing a wounded man under heavy 
 machine-gun fire and, the nearest dressing stations 
 having been evacuated, carrying him a long distance 
 to a train. 
 
 (vii) R. A. P. Willmer (7th Manch., Educ.) for 
 obtaining at Ablainzeville, under heavy fire, useful 
 information concerning the enemy's movements. 
 Capt. S. A. French (7th R.W. Kent, Clerk) was 
 killed at Moy during the preliminary bombard- 
 ment on 2oth March and Capt. H. T. Rapson 
 (7th R.W. Kent, Educ.) wounded next day died on 
 the 23rd. The long list of those missing on the 21st

 died on the 25th. P. F. Archer (R.H.A., Tram.), 
 wounded near St. Quentin on 28th March, died in 
 England on ist September. 
 
 Battle of the Lys. 
 Although an attack north of La Bassee was not 
 unexpected, the crisis on the Somme made it necessary 
 
 to weaken the de- 
 fence in this sector. 
 Many divisions were 
 sent to the south, 
 and others which 
 needed a respite 
 from the desperate 
 fighting there were 
 made up to strength 
 with drafts fresh from 
 England and put into 
 the Hne in their place. 
 The attack opened on 
 gth April on a front 
 of some 12 or 15 
 miles between the La 
 Bassee Canal and Armentieres which had been the 
 scene of so much fighting in 1915. Again aided by a 
 thick mist the enemy over-ran Portuguese divisions 
 which were being reUeved and, pressing rapidly for- 
 ward, reached the river Lys at and near Sailly. The 
 withdrawal of the Portuguese opened up the British 
 divisions on each side of them to attack in flank and

 103 
 rear. The 55th, north of the La Bassee Canal, stood 
 fast, but the 40th to the south of Armentieres were 
 compelled to give ground. Towards evening the Ger- 
 mans near Estaires and Bac St. Maur forced passages 
 over the river, the former being driven back by the 
 51st and 50th Divisions who were in reserve behind 
 the Portuguese. 
 
 Next day the enemy captured Estaires and, although 
 driven out, succeeded later in regaining the town. 
 On this day the battle spread northwards to the 
 neighbourhood of Hill 60. Aided once more by mist 
 the Ge'rmans pushed back the 25th Division north of 
 Armentieres and the 19th on the east side of the 
 Messines ridge, but the situation at the latter point 
 was somewhat restored in a counter-attack by the 
 9th Division. Armentieres, thus threatened from the 
 north and from the south, was vacated during the 
 evening by the 34th Division. 
 
 On the nth Messines, Neuf Berquin and Merville 
 were captured, and with the object of reducing the 
 length of hne held to the north our troops, under orders, 
 vacated the Messines ridge and withdrew to the line 
 Wulverghem — Neuve EgUse. On the 12th the Ger- 
 mans attacked in great strength to the north-west of 
 the salient they had formed and seized Merris, but were 
 checked by the 29th Division. Renewing the attack 
 next day they pushed back the 29th and 31st Divisions 
 which had already suffered heavy losses, and, in an 
 effort to reach the important railway junction at 
 Hazebrouck, got as far as the eastern edge of Nieppe 
 Forest. Here they were finally held by AustraHan 
 troops brought up from the Somme. Neuve Eglise, 
 after changing hands several times, finally passed to 
 the enemy on the 14th, and on the 15th the enemy 
 developed his success by capturing Bailleul, During 
 these latter days a previously arranged plan for the 
 evacuation of the Passchendaele salient was carried 
 out, the operation being completed by the night of the
 
 I04 
 I5th/i6th, when our line, starting from the west and 
 soutli of Langemarck, passed through St. Julien and 
 to the east of Frezenberg. 
 
 On the i6th Wytschaete was lost, but the 9th 
 Di\dsion held on to the outskirts of the village, and an 
 attack next day on the commanding feature known 
 as Kemmel Hill was repulsed by the 34th, 49th and 
 19th Divisions. On the i8th a renewal of the attack 
 at Givenchy and Festubert was successfully met by 
 the 1st Division, while to the west the 4th and 6ist 
 Divisions defeated other attacks with heavy losses. 
 
 Some days of comparative quiet now intervened 
 during which French reinforcements took over the 
 Kemmel sector. On the 25th the battle was renewed 
 between the Comines Canal and the north of Bailleul, 
 with the result that the 21st and 9th Divisions were 
 forced back along the Canal and at Wytschaete, 
 and the French lost Kemmel village and hill. Next 
 day French and British troops recaptured Kemmel 
 village, but being unsupported on the flanks had to 
 withdraw. The loss of Kemmel Hill seriously threatened 
 our positions in the Ypres salient where the communi- 
 cations and defences were under direct observation, 
 and as a precaution, on the night of the 26th/27th, 
 our troops were withdrawn to a point south of La 
 Clytte, the line passing thence to the west of Zille- 
 beke and through Wieltje and Pilckem. Thus on the 
 east round to the south and south-west the enemy 
 approached Ypres nearer than at any time since the 
 fighting line became stabilised in the autumn of 1914. 
 On the 29th very fierce attacks delivered between 
 Locre and Voormezeele by almost overwhelming 
 numbers of troops were completely defeated by the 
 2ist, 49th and 25th Divisions. 
 
 The casualties on both sides have already been dealt 
 with under the Battles of the Somme, 1918 (see p. 97). 
 In this, our second serious defeat on the western front, 
 the Germans advanced a maximum of ten miles on a
 
 105 
 
 front of twenty. By the capture of Kemmel and the re- 
 capture of the Messines ridge they caused us to vacate 
 most of the ground won in more than three months' 
 bitter fighting during the summer and autumn of 
 1917. Their advance brought them close to Bethune, 
 Hazebrouck and Poperinghe, and enabled them to 
 harass with gun-fire at moderate range those important 
 points in our communications by road and rail. 
 
 The fate of Merville, Merris, Bailleul and many 
 other little towns and villages was a pathetic feature 
 of the fighting. As the line in this part had hardly 
 varied, their only association with the war had been 
 to pro\ade peaceful quarters for advanced depots, 
 hospitals, rest billets and the like. The inhabitants 
 might therefore hope that such good fortune would 
 continue to the end, and that their homes, although 
 sometimes threatened, would escape destruction. Such 
 hopes were rudely shattered for, after a respite of 
 nearly four years, these places suddenly found them- 
 selves in the thick of the struggle, and in a few days 
 were as utterly wrecked as though they had been for 
 years in the forward battle area. 
 
 Capt. (afterwards Lt.-Col.) W. Parkes, M.C. (8th 
 Glouc, Educ.) in fighting near Messines gained a bar 
 to the M.C. " When the enemy penetrated the line 
 ... he led forward the battalion and such other 
 details as he was able to rally and restored the situation. 
 His initiative and coolness saved a general withdrawal." 
 
 Lieut. F. Morgan (R.G.A., Educ.) for gallantry at 
 Kemmel and Mont Noir was awarded the M.C. " As 
 senior subaltern of his battery he did splendid work 
 on many occasions and commanded the battery very 
 efficiently for some time." Capt. R. E. Licence (2nd 
 Durh. L.L, Educ), as adjutant of his battalion, 
 rendered most valuable assistance throughout the 
 operations, and received the Croix de Guerre. S. 
 Seaman (R.F.A., Asylums) was awarded the M.M. for 
 his gallantry at Kemmel Hill on 25tli April.

 Battle of the Aisne, 1918. 
 An attack was quite possible on practically any 
 part of the British front, and this prevented troops 
 from being completely withdrawn from the fighting 
 area. On the French front, however, there were thought 
 to be several quiet sectors and to one of these, to the 
 north-west of Rheims, were transferred a few divisions 
 with the hope that they would have a period of com- 
 parative rest in which, after their heavy losses on the 
 Somme and the Lys, to refit and to re-organise. This 
 hope was not realised for on 27th May, after only a 
 few weeks, the Germans opened an attack on a front 
 of some forty miles between Rheims and the north- 
 west of Soissons.^ The 21st Division near Loivre, the

 8th at Berry- aii-Bac on the Aisne, and the 50th near 
 Ville-aux-Bois, the 25th being in general reserve, 
 were driven back across the Aisne, the Vesle and the 
 Ardre with enormous losses, the 8th for instance 
 losing 7,000 infantry out of 9,000. At the same time 
 the French on our left were driven from the Chemin 
 des Dames where the British had been held up in 
 September, 1914 (see p. 9), but which had been 
 captured by the French in the spring of 19 17. After 
 a week's fighting the Germans had taken 45,000 
 prisoners and 400 guns and had advanced some thirty 
 miles to Villers-Cotterets and to Chateau-Thierry on 
 the Marne. There the defence by the French and the 
 Americans, aided by the 19th Division, prevented 
 any further success. 
 
 During the fighting on the 27th Lieut. R. T. Boyes 
 (R. Suss., Educ.) " re-organised men of his company 
 and stragglers, dug a line, and held off enemy attacks 
 throughout the night and again in the morning. He 
 himself brought down with rifle fire a low-flying 
 enemy aeroplane. ..." He was awarded the M.C. 
 
 Those killed included Mark Farrow (2nd Devons, 
 Asylums) near Berry-au-Bac on 26th May and Sergt. 
 R. W. Stevens (2nd Northants, Tram.) at Berry-au- 
 Bac, Wilham Pollock (4th S. Staffs, Educ.) and 
 Bernard Sibbitt (R.A.M.C, Comp.) all on the 27th. 
 Walter Butler (8th Border, Educ.) who was taken 
 prisoner on the latter date died in Germany on 8th 
 September.

 Battle of the Marne, 1918. 
 To make clear what follows it will be well at this 
 point to survey the general position and to glance at 
 events on the French front. In two months the enemy 
 had made three great and successful attacks; one, 
 chiefly against the British in the valley of the Somme, 
 had brought him nearly to Amiens., a second, also 
 against the British in the valley of the Lys, had
 
 110 
 
 brought him nearly to Hazebrouck, and a third, 
 chiefly against the French in the valleys of the Aisne 
 and the Marne, had brought him to within forty 
 miles of Paris. Although each assault, successful at 
 first, had been foiled, he continued his efforts to make 
 that breach in the Allied lines which would lead to 
 complete victory. Early in June the French, attacked 
 between Montdidier and Noyon, were pressed back, 
 but only for a few miles, and finally on 15th July the 
 last great assault by the enemy was opened. Rheims, 
 which being at the apex of a sharp salient could be 
 attacked on two sides, was the main objective, but 
 the whole offensive covered a front of more than 
 fifty miles. To the west and south-west of the city 
 there were some slight gains, but to the east the 
 assault, owing to the skilful tactics of General Gouraud, 
 was completely shattered. 
 
 On 1 8th July General Foch, judging that the 
 Germans had now committed the bulk of their re- 
 maining reserves to this last attack, launched his 
 counter-offensive, directing it at first against the 
 western half of the great salient formed in the German 
 line by their success in the recent Battle of the Aisne. 
 French and American troops, secretly assembled in 
 the woods near Villers - Cotterets, were successful 
 between Chateau-Thierry and Soissons.^ The British 
 15th Division, having relieved the Americans near 
 Dommiers to the south-west of Soissons, captured 
 Buzancy after a fluctuating struggle, and on their 
 right the 34th Division took Beugneux. Meanwhile 
 on the east side of the salient the 51st and 62nd 
 Divisions advanced along the valley of the Ardre. 
 In about ten days of this fighting the Germans were 
 driven back to the Aisne with the loss of 20,000 
 prisoners and 400 guns. Once again the Marne proved 
 to be the point at which an advance seriously threat- 
 ening Paris had been arrested and thrown back, but 
 
 * For plan see p. 108.

 whereas in 1914 the French, who on both occasions 
 bore the brunt of the attack, were aided only by a 
 few British divisions, in 1918 they were aided also by 
 Americans and Italians. 
 
 In the fighting on the east of the salient Sergt. P. 
 Clark (R.A.S.C, Tram.) was awarded the Croix de 
 Guerre. He " organised ... a service of cars between 
 loading posts and aid posts, going and coming con- 
 tinuously by bombarded roads, establishing control 
 posts and'regulating the circulation of cars." W. T. F. 
 Stiff {62nd M.G.C., P. Health) won the M.M. " Despite 
 almost insuperable difficulties, he maintained com- 
 munication between brigade, battalions and his own 
 company. He repeatedly repaired wires under heavy 
 shell fire." 
 
 Only two of the Council's staff lost their lives 
 during these operations, H. W. Drewett (2 /4th 
 Hamps., Tram.) who was killed on 20th July near 
 Jonchery to the west of Rheims, and Lieut. C. F. 
 Wilson (2/4th Hamps., Educ.) who was wounded on 
 the 23rd near Marfaux and died on the 27th at Epernay. 
 
 Minor Operations on British Front. 
 
 Advantage was taken of the lull in the fighting on 
 the main British front to re-organise the defences, 
 and, as a preliminary, eight divisions, the 14th, i6th, 
 31st, 34th, 39th, 40th, 59th, and 66th, which, having 
 suffered the most, had been reduced to cadres were 
 temporarily written off as fighting units. To relieve 
 the situation at Amiens, Bethune, Hazebrouck and 
 even at St. Pol, twenty miles to the west of Arras, 
 where much-used railway junctions were under shell 
 fire, three routes for north and south traffic were 
 provided, this making it necessary to lay some 500 
 miles of broad gauge track. New lines of defence in 
 rear consisting of about 5000 miles of trench had also 
 to be constructed by the weary troops. 
 
 As, however, the nunibers of our men increased 
 and their confidence and training improved, various
 
 JI3 
 
 minor operations were undertaken. These included 
 the capture of Ville-sur-Ancre on 19th May, and an 
 advance near Morlancourt, to the south of Albert, 
 on loth June, both by the Australians. An advance

 FIRST PART OF BRITISH ADVANCE, IQlS. 
 
 by the French near Locre Hospice on 20th May was 
 followed early in July by the capture of the Hospice, 
 and on the 14th of the month by the final capture of 
 Ridge Wood in the same neighbourhood by the 6th 
 Division. On 3rd June the Australians and the 29th 
 Division captured Mont de Merris, west of Merris 
 village. On 28th June the 5th and 31st Divisions
 
 "3 
 
 made a successful surprise attack to the east of the 
 Forest of Nieppe, capturing the enemy's defences on 
 a front of 6,000 yards and taking 450 prisoners. The 
 plateau of Villers-Bretonneux was cleared by the 
 Australians, and Hamel and Vaire Wood were re- 
 captured with 1,500 prisoners on 4th July. A week 
 later some slight advances were made near Merris, 
 on the 19th the 9th Division recaptured Meteren, and 
 on the night of the aSth/agth Merris was recaptured 
 by the Australians. 
 
 The Battle of Amiens. 
 The failure of the enemy's attack on Rheims on 
 15th July and the success, three days later, of the 
 counter-offensive at the Mame and the Aisne trans- 
 ferred the initiative to the Alhes. In order to maintain 
 this advantage it was arranged that the French, 
 American and British armies should undertake separate 
 local offensives, the task assigned to the British being 
 an advance to the east and south-east of Amiens 
 so as to free the railway communications through 
 the city from enemy pressure. It was desirable that 
 the attack should be a surprise, and elaborate pre- 
 cautions were therefore taken to lead the enemy 
 to suppose that any effort contemplated would be 
 at the other, that is the northern, end of our line. 
 With this object, headquarters and casualty clearing 
 stations were built in conspicuous positions in Flanders, 
 and training and general activity behind that part 
 of the line were simulated. Meanwhile preparations 
 were made rapidly and secretly for the advance at 
 Amiens, and on 8th August the attack opened at 
 dawn in a thick mist. The Canadians were on the 
 right immediately north of the Amiens — Roye road, 
 the Australians in the centre at Villers-Bretonneux 
 and to the south of the Somme, and the 58th, i8th 
 and 12th Divisions on the left to the north of the 
 river. Within a very short time these troops, aided 
 by 400 tanks, had pushed forward two miles to the
 
 114 
 line Demuin — Marcelcave — Cerisy, where the Cavalry 
 Corps joined in the advance. By nightfall the infantry 
 were six or seven miles from their starting point, the 
 only check being at Chipilly which was not stormed 
 until the next day, 13,000 prisoners had been captured 
 with nearly 400 guns and stores of ammunition, etc.^ 
 
 On the 9th the enemy's resistance stiffened, but 
 this was overcome and by the 12th, when the battle 
 was broken off, we had reached the line Damery — 
 Lihons — Proyart — Bray. This represented an advance 
 of some twelve miles v^ith the capture of a total of 
 22,000 prisoners and over 400 guns. The Amiens — 
 Paris railway was freed from enemy fire and, by 
 seizing ]\Iontdidier and by bringing Chaulnes under 
 shell-fire, the Allies greatly hampered the enemy's 
 arrangements for the movement of troops and 
 munitions. 
 
 In the fighting on 8th August Sergt. E. C, Dare 
 (Lond., Educ.) won the D.C.M. for capturing, with 
 the help of about thirty men, mostly stragglers from 
 different regiments, a German strong point with 
 twenty machine-guns and nearly 300 prisoners, and 
 Corp. R. B. Williams (Lond., Educ.) won the M.M. 
 for his bravery near Chipilly. Batty. Q.M.S. E. W. 
 Martin (R.F.A., Educ.) also won the M.M. about this 
 time, 
 
 Lieut. P. C. Cleall B.A. (loth Essex, Educ), 
 wounded and taken prisoner on the 8th, died of his 
 wounds on 26th August. 
 
 Second Battles of the Somme, 1918. 
 The attack was now shifted northwards to the line 
 between Albert and Arras where the ground was 
 suitable for tanks and where an advance to the south- 
 
 1 General Ludendorff described 8th August as " the black day 
 of the German Army in the history of this war." To it he attributed 
 the defection of Bulgaria and the general discouragement of Ger- 
 many's allies and on 14th August he advised his government to 
 seek for avenues of peace. {My War Memories, 1914-18, vol. ii. 
 p. 679).

 east, in conjunction with the recent success at Villers- 
 Bretonneux, might produce far-reaching results. As 
 a preliminary, on 21st August the line from Beau- 
 court and Miraumont, in the valley of the Ancre, 
 northwards to Moyennevillc, was successfully attacked 
 by the 21st, 42nd, New Zealand, 37th, 2nd and Guards 
 Divisions. The 5th, 63rd and 3rd Divisions, passing 
 through them, continued the advance, and by the end 
 of the day the Arras railway had been reached, and 
 in some places crossed, between Miraumont and 
 Achiet. As the result of an attack, early next morning, 
 by the Australians and the 32nd, 47th, 12th, i8th and 
 38th Divisions with a few tanks on the sector between 
 the Somme and the Ancre, Albert was captured by 
 the 1 8th Division, and our front was advanced to the 
 east of the Bray — Albert road. The fighting on these 
 two days yielded 4,400 prisoners and a few guns. 
 
 The way was thus cleared for a general attack 
 between Chaulnes and Arras, which opened on 23rd 
 August on a front of 33 miles. The divisions in action 
 on the 2 1st and 22nd continued their advance in a 
 general easterly direction, while on the left the attack 
 was taken up by the 56th and 52nd Divisions. The 
 assault was everjrvvhere successful, particularly to the 
 east and north-east of Achiet, and the enemy began 
 to show signs of confusion. Soon after midnight on 
 the 23rd/ 24th the advance was resumed, the Aus- 
 tralians capturing Bray, the 12th and i8th Divisions 
 positions to the north, the 38th Thiepval which held 
 out for three months during the Somme fighting 
 in 1916, the 42nd Miraumont and Pys, the 5th Irles, 
 the Guards St, Leger, the 56th positions near Croisilles 
 and the 52nd Henin. These successes were followed 
 up, and on the 27th the i8th Division captured Trones 
 Wood, on the 28th the 12th and 58th Divisions cap- 
 tured Hardecourt, and the 38th and 17th advanced 
 near Delville Wood towards Flers. On the 29th 
 Bapaume fell to the New Zealanders, and the 56th
 
 ii6 
 
 and 57th Divisions reached Bullecourt and Hende- 
 court. The enemy's resistance was now increasing, 
 but, notwithstanding this, the AustraUans, in the night 
 of 30th/3ist August, stormed Mont St. Quentin to 
 the north-west of Peronne, beat off numerous counter- 
 attacks and on 1st September occupied the town. 
 
 After this achievement the advance halted for a 
 time. Sir Douglas Haig summarised the operations 
 in the following words: "Twenty-three British 
 divisions . . . had driven 35 German divisions from 
 one side of the old Somme battlefield to the other. 
 . . . They had inflicted upon the enemy the heaviest 
 losses in killed and wounded, and had taken . . . 
 over 34,000 prisoners and 270 guns." Part of the 
 retirement was to some extent voluntary, but the 
 victories of 8th and 21st August had disorganised 
 the enemy's defences and greatly accelerated his 
 retreat. , 
 
 The M.C. was gained by five of the Council's staff as 
 follows : 
 
 (i) Lieut. A. H. Collins (32nd M.G.C., Educ.) at 
 Herleville, south of the Somme, on the 23rd " went 
 forward with the first wave, selecting positions 
 for his guns. . . . As a result of his forward observa- 
 tion under heavy fire, he was able to place his guns 
 so that effective neutralising fire was brought to 
 bear on the enemy." 
 
 (ii) Lieut. C. L. Henstridge (4th Lond., Educ.) 
 on the 23rd at Boyelles, almost due south of Arras, 
 " seeing that the leading company was held up, 
 pushed his platoon round the enemy's flank and 
 enfiladed part of the trench." 
 
 (iii) Capt. A. W. K. Burnett (R.F.A., Educ). 
 Near Bihucourt on the 25th, while his " battery 
 was firing a barrage, the enemy commenced a heavy 
 bombardment. He sent all spare men away to 
 cover and remained moving about the battery 
 encouraging the men."
 
 117 
 (1\) Lieut. E. C. Yalden (7th Middx., Educ.) at 
 Bullecourt " during heavy fighting which lasted 
 several days, displayed marked powers of leader- 
 ship. . . . When his company was almost sur- 
 rounded, he held on to his position with great 
 resolution, repelling several attacks." 
 
 (v) Capt. G. Ames (R.H.A., Educ.) in connection 
 with operations, details of which are not known, 
 leading to the fall of Bapaume. 
 Co. Sergt.-Maj. T. Archdeacon (7th Lond., Educ.) 
 won the D.C.M. on the 26th when, near Maricourt to 
 the east of Albert, " with an officer and eighteen men, 
 he secured a commanding position about 1,000 yards 
 in front of the main line. The party was subjected 
 to heavy enfilade machine-gun fire, the officer and 
 twelve men becoming casualties. He immediately 
 took command ... and beat off an enemy counter- 
 attack. He subsequently held on for eight hours." 
 
 The M.M. was won by C. W. Shrimpton (R.F.A., 
 Estates and Vain.) at Morlancourt, near the Somme, 
 for his gallantry in taking up ammunition under 
 heavy fire, and by G. J. Willcocks (R.A.M.C, Educ.) 
 for his devotion to duty near Clery-sur-Somme on ist 
 September. 
 
 The casualties included Sergt. A. G. Beavis (Yorks 
 L.I., Tram.) killed on 19th August near Herleville, 
 A. V. Veasey (R.G.A., Tram.) near Albert on the 
 2ist, Lieut. J. C. Stevenson (6th R.W. Surr., Educ.) 
 near Morlancourt, and Lieut. P. T. Sutton, B.A., 
 B.Sc. (R.G.A., Educ.) to the south of that place, both 
 on the 24th, W. H. D. Cole (ist Norf., Tram.) near 
 Achiet on the 25th, Lieut. S. N. Brown (8th R. Berks, 
 Educ.) at Longueval on the 27th, and Capt. E. C. 
 Dupres (9th R. Fus., Educ.) near Hardecourt and 
 Co. Sergt.-Maj. F. G. Weston (i6th Lond., Educ.) 
 near Hendecourt, both on the 28th. Bombdr. G. A. 
 Percival (R.F.A., Tram.) was killed near Clery-sur- 
 Somme and L. A. Reardon, B.Sc. (15th Lond., Educ.)
 
 ii8 
 near Peronne, both on ist September, and Corp. E. W. 
 C. Hayes (20th Lond., Tram.) near the latter place 
 on the 2nd. 
 
 Second Battles of Arras, 1918. 
 The enemy's position in front of Arras had now 
 been turned into a salient, and an attack against it 
 was opened on 26th August. The Canadians, who 
 had been brought up from near Chaulnes, stormed 
 Wancourt, Guemappe and Monchy-le-Preux, and the 
 51st Division was equally successful, recapturing 
 most of the area, on the north of the Scarpe, lost 
 during the German advance five months earlier. By 
 the end of the month our troops were in touch with 
 the southern part of the elaborate system of trenches 
 kno\\Ti as the Queant — Drocourt Switch, between the 
 Hindenburg Line at Queant, to the south-east of 
 • Arras, and Drocourt, to the south-east of Lens. On 
 2nd September the 52nd and 57th Divisions and the 
 Canadians with tanks, cavalry and motor machine- 
 guns broke through this sector, and the 4th and 63rd 
 Divisions following up exploited the victory. Alto- 
 gether in about eight days ten British divisions 
 defeated thirteen German divisions and captured 
 some 16,000 prisoners and 200 guns. 
 
 Battles of Havrincourt and Epehy. 
 As a result of his defeats at Amiens, Bapaume and 
 the Scarpe the enemy now found himself so danger- 
 ously situated that an immediate retirement became 
 necessary. The first withdrawal, on the night of 
 2nd /3rd September, was to a line from Peronne along 
 the Canal du Nord to Ytres and thence northwards 
 to the river Sensee, but within a few days the retreat 
 had been continued to the line Vermand — Epehy — 
 Havrincourt — Ecourt St. Ouentin. Much of this 
 defensive position consisted of the Hindenburg Line 
 to which the enemy had retired in the spring of 1917 
 (see p. 56) and portions of which had been captured 
 in the Battles of Arras and Cambrai (see pp. 61 and 85).
 
 IIQ 
 
 The neighbourhood of Epehy and Havrincourt had 
 been strongly fortified as a sort of outpost Hne, and 
 this had to be dealt with before the main position 
 could be attacked. The assault upon the sector at 
 Havrincourt opened on 12th September, when the 
 37th Division, with the New Zealanders on its right, 
 stormed Trescault, and the 62nd,^ with the 2nd on 
 its left, stormed Havrincourt. The Epehy sector 
 was attacked on the i8th when, to render the defence 
 more difficult, the assault extended over a front of 
 twenty-seven miles from near St. Ouentin to Gouzeau- 
 court. The Australians and 74th Division were success- 
 ful on the right, the i8th at Ronssoy and Lempire, 
 .the 12th, after a temporary check, at Epehy, and the 
 58th to the north of that village. In these two battles 
 fifteen British divisions defeated twenty German 
 divisions, capturing nearly 12,000 prisoners and 100 
 guns. 
 
 In the attack on Gouzeaucourt on the i8th Lieut. 
 John Evans (R. Welch Fus., Educ.) reached his 
 objective with twenty men but, as the troops on 
 each side failed to get up into line, he was cut off 
 from his supports. During the night he collected some 
 fifty men, beat off six counter-attacks and captured 
 a machine gun. His force held out until, after thirty 
 hours' fighting, their ammunition was exhausted, 
 when the enemy rushed the position, killing or cap- 
 turing all the survivors. Lieut. Evans was amongst 
 those taken prisoner, but he died of his wounds on 
 the 22nd. For his gallantry he was awarded the M.C. 
 
 Battles of Camhrai and the Hindenhurg Line. 
 It had now been decided that, as part of a general 
 scheme for dislocating the enemy's communications 
 by rail, the British should attack on the St. Quentin 
 — Cambrai front in the general direction of Maubeuge, 
 an important point in those communications. The 
 
 ' Curiously enough the same division captured the same position 
 ten months earher at the Battle of Cambrai (see p. 83).

 main position guarding this point was the Hindenburg 
 Line, known to the Germans as the Siegfried Line, 
 with subsidiary systems such as the Brunnhilde, 
 Wotan, Hunding, etc., Lines, named after various 
 individuals in German mythology. The whole was 
 a powerful series of field works, dug in 1916-18 by 
 the forced labour of civilians and prisoners of war, 
 with many concrete shelters and emplacements, and 
 protected by broad belts of wire. It extended from 
 the Chemin des Dames, past La Fere, St. Quentin and 
 Cambrai to near Arras with a depth varying from 
 7,000 to 10,000 yards. Included in the defences were 
 parts of the Canal du Nord and the Canal de I'Escaut. 
 The former connects the Somme at Peronne with 
 the Sensee midway between Cambrai and Douai, and 
 the latter connects the Somme near St. Quentin with 
 the Escaut (or Scheldt) to the north of Valenciennes. ^ 
 When bridges had been destroyed, the long stretches 
 of water were a formidable obstacle to all arms, but 
 especially to tanks, and the difficulties of crossing 
 were greatly increased by the fact that considerable 
 lengths were in cuttings as much as sixty feet deep, 
 the steep sides of which, faced with brick or masonry, 
 gave little or no foothold. 
 
 The less difficult sector, about thirteen miles long, 
 containing part of the Canal du Nord, was dealt with 
 first, the battle opening on 27th September. The 5th, 
 42nd, 3rd and 62nd Divisions on the right were already 
 across the canal, and their advance on a front between 
 Gouzeaucourt and Flesquieres was comparatively 
 easy. To the north of Flesquieres the 2nd Division, 
 the Guards, the 52nd, 63rd and 57th Divisions and 
 the Canadians had to force passages on a narrow 
 front and, having done so, most of them, instead of 
 continuing on their original line, had to debouch to 
 the south-east or north-east in order to gain room. 
 
 The part of this canal immediately to the north of St. Quentin 
 is also known as the St. Quentin Canal.
 
 121 
 
 The enemy's defence being thus thrown into confusion; 
 the nth and 56th Divisions crossed near Marquion and 
 Sauchy without great difficulty. In spite of strong 
 resistance the troops throughout the sector pressed 
 on all that day and the next, the average gain being 
 rather less than five miles in depth. 
 
 On the 29th the attack was transferred to the sector 
 north of St. Quentin which contained part of the 
 Canal de L'Escaut. This was the scene of one of 
 the most striking exploits of the whole war, described 
 by the commander-in-chief in the following words: 
 " Equipped mth life-belts, and carrying mats and 
 rafts, the 46th Division stormed the western arm of 
 the canal at Bellenglise and to the north of it, some 
 crossing the canal on footbridges wliich the enemy 
 was given no time to destroy, others dropping down 
 the sheer sides of the canal wall, and, having swum 
 or waded to the far side, climbing up the farther wall 
 to the German trench lines. ... So gallantly, rapidly 
 and well was the attack executed . . . that this one 
 di\'ision took on this day over 4,000 prisoners and 
 70 guns." On this and subsequent days the attack 
 was also successful at other points, namely the 6th 
 and 1st Divisions to the north of St. Quentin, the 
 Americans and Australians at Bellicourt and the i8th 
 and 12th Divisions at Vendhuille. 
 
 In these two battles thirty-one British and two 
 American divisions defeated thirty-nine German 
 divisions and captured 36,000 prisoners and 380 
 guns. Of more importance than the material gains 
 was the loss of moral among the enemy troops and 
 civilian population owing to the fact that the last and 
 strongest of his prepared positions had been shattered 
 and that the threat to his communications was now 
 instant and direct. 
 
 For gallantry shown when, as just narrated, the 46th 
 Division stormed the enemy's lines at Bellenglise, 
 Capt. W. L. Bass (4th Leic, Educ.) was awarded the

 M.C. vSergt. H. Tester (R.F.A., Parks) received the 
 M.M. for exceptional bravery in action at different 
 times during September. 
 
 During preliminary fighting to the north of St. 
 Quentin H. P. Obendorf (K.R.R., Educ.) was awarded 
 the M.M. for conspicuous bravery in action on 20th 
 September, and on the 26th Sergt. W. T. G. Jacobs 
 (Lab. Corps, P. Cont.) won the M.S.M. when, although 
 the immediate vicinity of the ammunition dump at 
 which he was working was subjected to heavy bursts 
 of shell fire, he encouraged his men to continue their 
 work of unloading ammunition from a train and 
 reloading into lorries, a very urgent task. 
 
 The only serious casualties amongst the Council's 
 staff in these battles were Thomas Bayliss (ist 
 Gren. Gds., Housing) killed near Flesquieres on 27th 
 September, Sergt. A. S. Devis, M.M. (Tank Corps, 
 Tram.) on the 29th, H. J. Batchelor (6th York and 
 Lane, Educ.) to the north-west of Cambrai and 
 Lieut. A. Tinniswood (R.E., Arch.) near Cantaing on 
 1st October, and H. O. Tichener (R.F.A., Asylums) 
 near Cambrai on the 3rd. G. A. Bull (R.F.A., Tram.), 
 wounded near Cambrai on 3rd October, died in England 
 on 15th November. 
 
 Fighting in Flanders. 
 
 The effect of this succession of victories was felt 
 further north. During August the enemy gradually 
 vacated the Lys salient (see map on p. 102), and on 
 the 19th we occupied Merville, and on the 30th Bailleul. 
 Later the movement became more hurried, and, 
 although the 36th and 29th Divisions were stoutly 
 opposed near Neuve Eglise, by 6th September Kemmel 
 Hill had been recaptured and we were back on the line 
 Givenchy — Neuve Chapelle— Ploegsteert. 
 
 On 28th September, in an attack by British, French 
 and Belgian troops under the general command of H.M. 
 the King of the Belgians, the 14th, 35th, 29th and 9th 
 Divisions, aided by the 41st and 36th Divisions, were
 
 124 
 
 completely successful to the south of the Ypres — 
 Zonnebeke road, sweeping the enemy back in one day 
 far beyond the limits of the fighting in 1917. At the 
 same time the 31st, 30th and 34th Divisions captured 
 Wytschaete and reached the outskirts of Messines. In 
 all 5,000 prisoners and 100 guns were taken. Next day 
 the advance was continued, and on 2nd October the 
 enemy fell back along the front between Lens and 
 Armentieres. The restoration of roads across the shell- 
 torn salient at Ypres occupied a fortnight, and on 14th 
 October the advance was resumed. The 30th, 34th, 
 41st and 35th Divisions reached the high ground over- 
 looking Wervicq and Menin, and the 36th, 29th and 
 9th Divisions on their left were equally successful. 
 Ostend fell on the 17th to the Belgians, who during 
 the next few days drove the Germans from the rest of 
 the coast as far as the Dutch frontier. On the 17th the 
 8th Division entered Douai, and on the i8th the 57th 
 and 59th Divisions entered Lille, the 40th Roubaix, 
 and the 31st Tourcoing. 
 
 Lieut. T. J. Malone (ist R. Innisk. Fus., Educ.) 
 earned the M.C. at Dadizeele on ist and 2nd October, 
 by his conspicuous gallantry and coolness under fire 
 and by his devotion to duty under most trying condi- 
 tions. Lieut. A. A. Angel (36th M.G.C., Educ.) won 
 the same decoration at the same time and place. " He 
 was attached to the infantry with four guns and when 
 the enemy put down a heavy barrage ... he had one 
 put out of action and the team of another disorganised. 
 . . . Paying no attention to the bombardment he set 
 matters right." 
 
 W. E. Price (ist Rif. Bde., Tram.) was killed on 20th 
 August near Merville, Corp. J. S. Hall (2/i7th Lond., 
 Tram.) on 28th September near Wytschaete Ridge, 
 Lance-Corp. E. H. Heard, B.A. (12th E. Surr., Educ.) 
 near Gheluwe on 2nd October, Corp. J. Heskett (2nd 
 R. Fus., Comp.) near Courtrai and Sergt. H. H. Perry, 
 B.A. (2/23rd Lond., Educ.) near Wervicq on the 14th,
 
 125 
 
 and Corp. H. C. Johnson (4th N. Lanes, Comp.) near 
 Toumai on the 22nd. 
 
 Battles of Le Cateau, the Selle and the Sambre. 
 
 In the south the enemy had now been driven out of 
 the last of his elaborate defences so that the remainder 
 of the fighting was in open country and progress 
 became more rapid. On 8th October the attack was re- 
 sumed on the St. Quentin — Cambrai line, the successful 
 divisions reckoning from the right being the 66th, 25th, 
 38th, New Zealand, 3rd, 2nd and 63rd. Next day the 
 57th Division and the Canadians occupied Cambrai, 
 and our troops almost reached Le Cateau. In this fight- 
 ing twenty-two British and two American divisions 
 routed twenty-four German divisions and captured 
 12,000 prisoners and 250 guns. 
 
 The next task was the forcing of the line of the river 
 Selle. This, after hard fighting, was accomplished to 
 the east of Le Cateau on 19th October by the 46th, ist, 
 6th, Americans, 50th and 66th Divisions, and to the 
 north of the town on the 20th by the 38th, 17th, 5th, 
 42nd, 62nd, Guards, 19th and 4th Divisions. Further 
 extensive fighting ensued on the 23rd and succeeding 
 days, and by the end of the month our troops had 
 reached the Foret de Mormal and were in the western 
 outskirts of Valenciennes. In this battle twenty-four 
 British and two American divisions defeated thirty- 
 one German divisions and captured 20,000 prisoners 
 and 475 guns. 
 
 As a preliminary to the Battle of the Sambre the 
 6 1st, 49th and 9th Divisions successfully attacked on 
 1st November to the south of Valenciennes, the town 
 itself falling to the Canadians. The main assault 
 opened on the 4th when the ist, 46th and 32nd 
 Divisions crossed the Sambre, the 25th, 50th, i8th, 
 38th, 17th and 37th penetrated the Foret de Mormal, 
 the New Zealanders took Le Quesnoy, scaling the 
 ramparts in mediaeval fashion by means of ladders, and 
 the 62nd, Guards, 24th, 19th, nth and 56th were
 
 126 
 
 successful to the north of the town. The average 
 advance on this and the next day was about seven 
 miles, and 19,000 prisoners and 450 guns were taken. 
 
 The enemy's resistance was now broken and he 
 began to fall back in disorder, closely pursued by our 
 men and harried by aeroplanes with bombs and 
 machine-gun fire. Bavai was occupied on the 7th, 
 Avesnes, the German advanced G.H.Q., on the 8th, 
 and Tournai and the fortress of Maubeuge on the 9th. 
 In the early morning of the nth the Canadians 
 captured Mons so that for the British the fighting on 
 the western front began and ended at the same spot. 
 
 Lt.-Col. W. Parkes, M.C. and bar (8th Glouc, Educ.) 
 was awarded the D.S.O. for gallantry and good leader- 
 ship. " His battahon was twice ordered to carry out 
 an attack [near Haussy] on the 20th and 23rd October 
 respectively. He personally led the leading platoons 
 across the Selle River under machine-gun and rifle fire. 
 Throughout he showed great courage and ability to 
 command." 
 The M.C. was won by the undermentioned: 
 
 (i) Lieut. T. A. Edwards (R.N. Div., Educ.) at 
 Niergnies, south-east of Cambrai, on 8th October. 
 
 (ii) Lieut. H. R. Oswald (13th Welch, Educ). 
 " He was indefatigable on the night of i9th/20th 
 October in carrying out reconnaissances across the 
 river Selle in face of the enemy. . . . During the 
 attack he rushed an enemy machine-gun." 
 
 (iii) Capt. W. J. Campion (Beds, Educ.) north of 
 Le Cateau on 23rd October when "by his cool 
 courage and fearless leadership he held his company 
 together under a very heavy fire. Later ... he 
 broke down the enemy resistance and successfully 
 led the hue ... to the final objective, capturing 
 eighty prisoners." 
 
 (iv) Lieut. E. T. G. Hancock (R.G.A., Educ.) for 
 conspicuous gallantry early in November between 
 Lille and Tournai.
 
 127 
 
 Corp. E. E. Huntley (Grcn. Gds., Pub. H.) was 
 awarded the M.M. for bravery in action near ]\Iaubeuge. 
 
 Lieut. F. Nevey, M.A. (9th W. Rid., Educ.) and J. F. 
 Auker (9th W. Rid., Tram.) were killed in front of 
 Le Cateau on 12th October, B. W. Muscutt (4th York 
 and Lane, Tram.) south-west of Valenciennes on the 
 13th, Sergt. S. J. Boucher (ist Dev., Educ.) near Le 
 Cateau on the 20th, Corp. H. V. Harvey, M.M. (R.F.A., 
 Tram.) and E. C. Yeldham (5th W. Yorks, Tram.) 
 near Valenciennes on ist November, Capt. E. L. Blunt 
 (R.G.A,, Educ.) east of Le Cateau, and Lieut. A. J. 
 Gaskell (Norf. Yeo., Educ.) in Belgium on the 2nd, 
 F. E. Elhott (ist Midx., Tram.) near Valenciennes on 
 the 6th, and F. Watkins (20th Huss., Asylums) near 
 Avesnes on the 7th. Lance-Corp. E. C. Pike (loth R. 
 Warw., Tram.), wounded on the 7th near Mons, died 
 on the 9th. 1 
 
 The Armistice. 
 
 After the Battle of Amiens in August, General Luden- 
 dorff urged the necessity for an immediate peace. The 
 German Government accordingly decided that, follow- 
 ing their army's next victory, negotiations for peace 
 would be opened, but such a victory was not forth- 
 coming. Bulgaria surrendered at the end of September, 
 and on 4th October the German Chancellor, Prince Max 
 of Baden, appealed to President Wilson for an armis- 
 tice. While notes and replies were passing between 
 them Turkey collapsed, and on the 20th Germany 
 accepted the terms upon which the President was 
 willing to submit the correspondence to the Allies. On 
 4th November Austria surrendered, on the 5th the 
 President notified Germany that the Allies were willing 
 
 * Throughout the war the British fighting on the western front 
 was mainly in the ancient provinces of Flanders, Artois and 
 Picardy. Chaucer, five hundred years ago, in the Prologue to the 
 Canterbury Tales, wrote: 
 
 " With him ther was his sone, a yong Squyer 
 « « * « « 
 
 And he had been somtyine in chivachye 
 In Flaundres, in Artoys, and Picardye."

 to make peace, and on the 7th the German delegates, 
 travelhng by direction of Marshal Foch along the 
 Foiirmies — La Capelle — Guise road (see map on p. 
 122), reached the French lines. They were accommo- 
 dated for the night near Compiegne, and next morning 
 presented themselves at Marshal Foch's headquarters 
 in a train near Rethondes four miles east of the town, 
 General Weygand, his Chief of Staff, Sir Rosslyn 
 Wemyss, the First Sea Lord, and Vice-Admiral Sims 
 of the American Navy being also present. 
 
 Mr. Buchan ^ has given a vivid account of the 
 inter\dew. " The French Marshal asked, ' Qu'est-ce 
 que vous desirez. Messieurs? ' and they replied that 
 they had come to receive the Allied proposals for an 
 armistice. To this Foch answered that the Allies 
 were not seeking any armistice, but were content to 
 finish the war in the field. The Germans looked 
 nonplussed, and stammered something about the 
 urgent need for the cessation of hostilities. ' Ah,' 
 said Foch, ' I understand — you have come to heg for 
 an armistice.' They admitted the correction, and 
 explicitly begged for an armistice." They were then 
 presented with the Allied terms which had to be 
 accepted within seventy-two hours. 
 
 The chief terms were (i) all occupied territories to 
 be evacuated and all deported inhabitants to be 
 repatriated at once; (ii) 2,500 heavy and 2,500 field 
 guns, 25,000 machine guns and 17,000 aeroplanes to 
 be surrendered; (iii) all German territory on the left 
 bank of the Rhine and all territory on the right bank 
 within a radius of 30 kilometres (about 19 miles) from 
 the three bridge-heads at Cologne, Coblenz and Mainz 
 to be evacuated; (iv) 5,000 locomotives, 150,000 
 wagons and 5,000 motor lorries to be surrendered; 
 (v) all submarines and the bulk of the surface fleet to 
 be surrendered; (vi) all Allied prisoners to be re- 
 patriated; (vii) the treaties of Brest-Litovsk with 
 
 * Nelson's History of the War, vol. xxiv., p. 78.
 
 129 
 
 Russia and Biikharest with Roumania to be renounced 
 and (viii) Allied merchant shipping to be restored. 
 
 A courier with the text was despatched to the 
 German headquarters, which he reached only after 
 much difficulty and delay. The terms were accepted 
 and were signed at 5 o'clock on the morning of Monday, 
 nth November, by the German delegates, by Marshal 
 Foch and by Sir Rosslyn Wemyss, and at the eleventh 
 hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of the 
 year 1918 the Great War, which had lasted for four 
 years and ninety-nine days, came to an end. 
 
 After a few days' delay in which to rest the troops 
 and to bring up supplies, the advance was resumed on 
 17th November, the frontier was crossed on ist Decem- 
 ber and on 6th December our troops entered Cologne. 
 To the Belgians on our left was entrusted the defence 
 of the district to the north of Dusseldorf, to the 
 Americans on our right the bridge-head at Coblenz, 
 and to the French on their right the bridge-head at 
 Mainz. 
 
 General Casualties.

 died in France during December, but neither the place 
 nor the cause nor the exact date of his death is known. 
 
 CHAPTER VII. 
 
 Royal Navy. 
 
 The fate of the countries engaged in the Great War 
 was determined on the western front, and the fighting 
 there has merited the most attention, but in no other 
 conflict was it so true that, in the words of the Articles 
 of War: " It is upon the Navy that, under the good 
 Providence of God, the wealth, prosperity, and peace 
 of these' islands and of the Empire do mainly depend." 
 Without the Navy's powerful aid our country, if not 
 conquered by invasion, would almost certainly have 
 been starved into surrender, nor could our armies in 
 France, and still less those farther away, have been 
 supplied with reinforcements and munitions. Its 
 position at the opening of the war has already been 
 referred to (see p. 5). Although its influence was 
 felt in all our operations, it will be convenient to give 
 here a separate summary of its great work. 
 
 Early in 1914 a test mobilisation of the Home Fleets 
 had been ordered for i6th July. In the ordinary way 
 the ships would have dispersed on the 27th, but on 
 the 26th, three days after Austria's ultimatum to 
 Serbia, the dispersal was countermanded. On the 
 29th the British First Fleet sailed for Scapa Flow 
 in the Orkneys, and on ist August our full naval 
 forces were mobiUsed. Action followed close upon the 
 declaration of war, for on the 5th the Konigin Luise, 
 while laying mines some distance off the East Coast, 
 was chased and sunk by H.M.S. Amphion. A few hours 
 later the latter struck one of the mines and went down
 
 with most of her crew and some prisoners from the 
 Luise. On the 6th H.M.S. Birmingham rammed and 
 sank two enemy submarines. 
 
 A brief account may here be given of the Navy's 
 duties during the war. These were summarised by 
 Mr. Balfour, as First Lord of the Admiralty, in July, 
 1915, as follows: — 
 
 (i) To drive the enemy's commerce off the sea. 
 This was accomplished by stationing strong forces in 
 Scapa Flow and the English Channel, so as to cut off 
 all egress from the North Sea. The area thus enclosed 
 was then systematically patrolled by light craft, 
 Harwich and Dover being two of the chief bases. 
 
 (ii) To protect British commerce. To do this it was 
 necessary to have control in all parts of the world. 
 The Atlantic was the main avenue of supply, but 
 routes had also to be considered to and from Australia, 
 New Zealand, India and China. Also a northern patrol 
 was necessary to insure the passage from Denmark, 
 Norway, Sweden and north Russia. Mine-sweepers 
 and trawlers had to be provided to deal with the 
 mines laid by the enemy in the main traffic routes. 
 Finally, when the unrestricted submarine campaign 
 against trading vessels was undertaken, anti-sub- 
 marine patrols and escorts both for ships-of-war and 
 the mercantile marine had to be organised. 
 
 (iii) To render the enemy's fleet impotent and (iv) 
 to prevent the landing of enemy troops. These were 
 brought about by the forces and patrols referred to 
 under (i) and (ii) at Scapa, in the English Channel and 
 elsewhere. Later the battle-cruiser and other squadrons 
 were stationed in the Firth of Forth. 
 
 (v) To enable our troops to be transported across 
 the sea. This entailed the escort of several millions of 
 troops between the British Isles, France, India, 
 Australia, New Zealand, East, West and South Africa, 
 Gallipoli, Egypt, Palestine, Salonica and latterly 
 America and Russia.
 
 132 
 
 (vi) To secure supplies for troops in all theatres of 
 war. 
 
 (vii) In fitting circumstances to assist military 
 operations such as those at Gallipoli and at different 
 times on the Belgian coast. 
 
 In the space available it is not possible to do more 
 than to give a list of the chief actions in which the Navy 
 was engaged.^ 
 
 On 28th August a sweep by destroyers and light 
 cruisers, aided later by battle cruisers, into the Heligo- 
 land Bight was organised. After some confused fighting 
 V187, an enemy destroyer, and the light cruisers Koln, 
 Mainz and Ariadne were sunk with the loss of over 
 1,000 men. Four enemy raiders were sunk, the Kaiser 
 Wilhelm der Grosse by H.M.S. High/Iyer on 26th August 
 at Rio de Oro on the west coast of Africa, the Cap 
 Trafalgar by H.M.S. Carmania on 14th September off 
 Trinidada Island, Brazil, the Emden by H.M.S. Sydney 
 on 9th November at the Cocos or Keeling Islands, in 
 the Indian Ocean, and the Konigsberg on nth July, 
 1915, by monitors in the River Rufiji, East Africa, 
 where she had been shut up by H.M.S. Chatham six 
 months before. H.M.S. Audacious struck a mine on 
 27th October and sank, and on ist January, 1915, the 
 Formidable was torpedoed off Start Point, Devon. 
 Several destroyers and monitors aided the Allied left 
 at Lombartzyde on the Belgian coast during the first 
 Battle of Ypres in October. On 3rd November, 
 Yarmouth, and on 14th December, Scarborough, 
 Whitby and the Hartlepools, were bombarded, while 
 on 24th January, 1915, another attempted raid was 
 driven off with the loss of the Blilcher and severe 
 damage to the Seydlitz. 
 
 During September, 1915, the Royal Edward carrying 
 reinforcements to Gallipoli was torpedoed with the 
 loss of 1,000 out of 1,600 officers and men. In October 
 
 • The actions in which members of the Council's staff lost their 
 lives are dealt with separately at the end of the chapter.
 
 133 
 
 the transports Ramazan and Marquette were sunk in 
 the iEgean, on the 28th H.M.S. Argyll ran aground on 
 the Scotch coast, and on 30th December the Persia 
 was torpedoed in the Mediterranean. The German 
 battleship Pommern was torpedoed in the Baltic on 
 2nd July. 
 
 On 25th April, 1916, Lowestoft and Yarmouth were 
 again bombarded, in June H.M.S. Hampshire, carrying 
 Lord Kitchener and his staff to Russia, struck a mine 
 off the Orkneys and sank with the loss of nearly all on 
 board, and during the latter part of the year several 
 vessels of no great importance were damaged or 
 destroyed on each side. 
 
 On 31st January, 1917, the Germans proclaimed 
 unrestricted action by their U-boats. This danger 
 was met by developing the destroyer patrols and 
 patrols by armed trawlers, smacks, drifters, fast motor 
 boats, etc., by the use of strongly-armed vessels dis- 
 guised as tramps, by the arming of merchantmen, by 
 the use of depth charges which were constructed so as 
 to explode at any depth desired, and by the use of 
 seaplanes and airships to detect submarines even when 
 submerged. Commanders of merchant vessels were 
 instructed as to routes to be taken or avoided. The 
 vessels were grouped into convoys and many of them 
 were dazzle-painted so as to deceive the enemy as to 
 their type and construction, and even as to their 
 course and speed. Many ships after being sunk were 
 raised by the salvage service; during the last three 
 years of the war over a million and a half tons were so 
 raised, the value of the ships and contents being about 
 £50,000,000. 
 
 The opening of 1918 was marked on 14th January 
 by the third bombardment of Yarmouth. Ostend and 
 Zeebrugge were of great assistance to the Germans 
 as submarine bases, and one object of the Passchen- 
 daele fighting was to bring them under gunfire (see 
 p. 70). On 23rd April, 1918, gallant efforts were
 
 134 
 made to seal the entrances to the harbours. At 
 Zeebrugge, the Vindictive, under cover of a smoke 
 screen, and accompanied by a flotilla of destroyers, 
 monitors and motor launches, was driven on to the 
 mole to serve as a landing-stage for a storming party. 
 The latter, having landed, silenced a number of 
 batteries, destroyed hangars and store-sheds and sank 
 a destroyer. The submarine C3 was run into the 
 piles of the railway and, by its explosion, caused 
 very great damage. Three block ships were sunk in 
 the channel leading to the Bruges canal. The crews 
 of the submarine and block ships, after accomplishing 
 their tasks, were taken off their vessels in motor boats. 
 The attack at Ostend on the same night was not so 
 successful, as the wind, changing suddenly, dispersed 
 the smoke screen, and the block ships were blown up 
 in the wrong place. In a second attempt on 9th May, 
 the Vindictive was successfully blown up and sunk 
 across the channel. 
 
 As 1918 advanced the U-boats, partly owing to the 
 reduction in numbers caused by losses and damage at 
 sea, and partly owing to the success of our defensive 
 measures, became much less effective. In October, 
 1918, when it was clear that the Germans had lost the 
 war, their War Cabinet undertook that the principles 
 of cruiser warfare should be observed and that the 
 lives of non-combatants would be assured. At the end 
 of the month their fleet, ordered out to sea in the hope 
 that some desperate stroke might retrieve the situa- 
 tion, mutinied and it was realised that an offensive 
 was impossible. 
 
 In accordance with the terms of the Armistice 
 fourteen battleships, seven cruisers and fifty destroyers 
 surrendered on 21st November to the British Navy and 
 were taken as prizes to the Firth of Forth. Submarines 
 to the number of 150 were also surrendered and taken 
 into Harwich.

 Casualties amongst the Council's staff. 
 The actions in which members of the Council's staff 
 perished were as follows: 
 
 H.M.S. Aboukir, Cressy and Hogue. 
 
 On 22nd September, 1914, H.M.S. Aboukir, Cressy, 
 and Hogue, armoured cruisers of 12,000 tons displace- 
 ment, were torpedoed and sunk in the North Sea to 
 the south of the Dogger Bank with a loss of 60 officers 
 and over 1,300 men. The sinking of the Aboukir was 
 an ordinary hazard of patrolling duty, but the Hogue 
 and the Cressy were sunk because they proceeded to 
 the assistance of their consort, and remained, with 
 engines stopped, endeavouring to save Hfe, thus 
 presenting an easy and certain target to further 
 submarine attacks. All the men behaved extraordin- 
 arily well, obeying orders even when in the water 
 swimming for their lives, and many acts of great self- 
 sacrifice and gallantry were witnessed. 
 
 Fifteen employees of the Council lost their lives in 
 the sinking of these ships. They were Henry Arnold, 
 J. E. Rawlings, A. S. Keeler, R. G. Grist, C. H. Boys, 
 Walter Challis and A. A. Gaiger (Tramways), E. V. 
 White, F. J. Owen, Westly Livingstone (L.F.B.), G. 
 D. Davis and F. C. Chapman (Education), R. W. 
 Medhurst (Ch. Engr.), William Lawrence (Asylums) 
 and J. W. Curry (Pub. Cont.). 
 
 H.M.S. Hawke. 
 
 On 15th October, 1914, H.M.S. Hawke was torpedoed 
 and sunk in the northern waters of the North Sea. The 
 Hawke was a cruiser with a displacement of 7,350 tons, 
 and carried a crew of about 500, of whom only 4 officers 
 and 69 men were saved. At about 11 a.m. the Hawke 
 sighted a collier flying the Norwegian flag, and changed 
 her course slightly in order to investigate the character 
 of the vessel. The cruiser was moving through the 
 water at a moderate speed when an explosion occurred 
 and part of the ship's side was torn away. One boat 
 only was got away and her crew pulled about
 
 136 
 
 endeavouring to save those in the water. Many men 
 clambered on to Ufe-saving rafts, but the cold was 
 extreme and numbers of them fell from the rafts into 
 the water. Three officers and forty-nine men were 
 saved in this boat and were picked up ultimately by 
 a trawler. One officer and twenty men were also 
 picked up later from a raft. 
 
 Six employees of the Council were among those who 
 were lost, namely G. A. B. Allum and T. W. Jackson 
 (Ch. Engr.), F. T. Hemming and C. W. Waite (L.F.B.), 
 P. W. Hepworth (Asylums) and A. W. Woods (Tram.). 
 
 Battles of Coronel and the Falkland Isles. 
 
 Towards the evening of ist November, 1914, H.M.S. 
 Good Hope, an armoured cruiser of 14,100 tons and 
 flagship of Admiral Sir C. Cradock, accompanied by 
 H.M.S. Monmouth, an armoured cruiser of 9,800 tons, 
 H.M.S. Glasgow, a Hght cruiser of 4,800 tons, and 
 H.M.S. Otranto, an auxiliary cruiser, came up off 
 Coronel on the coast of Chile with the squadron of 
 Admiral von Spee, consisting of the armoured cruisers 
 Scharnhorst and Gneisenau of 11,400 tons, and the 
 light cruisers Dresden, Niirnberg and Leipzig, 3,540, 
 3,350 and 3,200 tons respectively. The enemy declined 
 action until sunset, when the light gave them an 
 important advantage. During the action, which began 
 about 7 p.m. and lasted for an hour, darkness and the 
 head sea made firing difficult. At an early stage both 
 the Good Hope and Monmouth caught fire, but fought 
 on until, at 7.50 p.m., a great explosion took place on 
 the Good Hope, flames shooting 200 feet into the air, 
 and the ship foundered with the loss of all on board. 
 The Monmouth, accompanied by the Glasgow, hauled 
 off at dark, but was unable to steam away. She was 
 then attacked by the enemy and sank,, all on board 
 perishing. The Glasgow and Otranto escaped. The 
 result of this action is attributed to the superior weight 
 of metal possessed by the enemy and to the advantages 
 of position. The British ships fought with gallantry^
 
 137 
 but the odds were too great. F. H. Field and W. J. 
 Brooker (Tram.), and J. E. Blake (Parks) lost their 
 lives on the Good Hope. 
 
 After the battle the Glasgow and the Otranto fell in 
 with H.M.S. Canopus, of 12,950 tons, which also 
 belonged to Cradock's squadron but had been left 
 behind for repairs, and the three vessels made for the 
 South Atlantic. Meanwhile a squadron, consisting of 
 the battle cruisers H.M.S. Invincible and Inflexible, 
 each of 17,250 tons, and the three armoured cruisers 
 H.M.S. Carnarvon of 10,850 tons, and /^^ew/ and Corn- 
 wall, each of 9,800 tons, was dispatched from England 
 under Rear- Admiral Sir F. D. Sturdee, and arrived on 
 7th December at the Falkland Isles off the extreme 
 south-eastern coast of S. America. Next day, just as 
 the combined squadrons had finished coaling, von 
 Spec arrived expecting to find only the renanants of 
 Cradock's force. When he realised his error he at- 
 tempted to escape, but was compelled by the superior 
 speed of the British ships to give battle. His vessels 
 were overpowered; the Scharnhorst and Gneisenau 
 were sunk by the battle cruisers, the Nurnberg by the 
 Kent and the Leipzig by the Glasgow and Cornwall. 
 About 200 of the crews were rescued, the rest with 
 von Spec himself going down with their ships. The 
 Dresden escaped for the time being, but on 14th March, 
 1915, was sunk by the Kent and the Glasgow off the 
 island of Juan Fernandez. 
 
 Battle of Jutland. 
 
 The facts relating to the Battle of Jutland have 
 been the subject of so much controversy that it must 
 suffice to say here merely that on 31st May, 1916, the 
 British Battle-cruiser Fleet, under the command of 
 Vice-Admiral Sir David Beatty, was cruising to the 
 west of the Jutland peninsula when the Battle-cruiser 
 Fleet of Vice-Admiral Hipper was sighted. A fierce 
 battle commenced, and had lasted for nearly an hour 
 when the main body of the German High Sea Fleet
 
 138 
 appeared and took part in the conflict. From the first 
 sighting of the enemy two hours elapsed before the 
 main British fleet could appear on the scene of action, 
 and during the latter part of this time Sir David 
 Beatty's force was engaged against overwhelming odds. 
 Though it successfully held the German fleet and 
 inflicted very heavy damage on the enemy, it neces- 
 sarily sustained great losses in the unequal conflict. 
 All the might of the German fleet was concentrated in 
 turn against the leading ships of the British line. 
 H.M.S. Queen Mary in particular received the full 
 force of the enemy's fire, and after a stubborn fight 
 the vessel was destroyed as the result of an explosion. 
 Very few of the crew were saved and amongst those 
 missing were George Doling (L.F.B.) who was serving 
 as a gunner and E. W. Whitlock (Tram.) who was 
 serving with the R.M.L.I. H.M.S. Tipperary formed 
 a unit of the fourth torpedo flotilla attached to the 
 main Battle Fleet. On the night (31st May/ist June, 
 1916) following the battle the Fourth, Eleventh and 
 Twelfth Flotillas delivered a series of attacks on the 
 enemy, causing him severe losses. In the course of 
 these attacks H.M.S. Tipperary was sunk. Only 20 
 men were saved, and among others Leading Stoker 
 E. W. Pouting (L.F.B.) lost his life. 
 
 The Germans claimed the battle as a victory, but 
 the grounds on which this claim was based are not 
 obvious. It is difficult to estimate their losses, but 
 they seem to have equalled ours.^ Their fleet did not 
 continue the contest, but in the darkness of the early 
 morning of ist June returned to port. Our blockade 
 was maintained, and never again did they venture to 
 dispute our naval supremacy. 
 
 General Casualties, 
 
 I. J. Miller (R.N., L.F.B.) was on H.M.S. Viknor 
 when she was lost in January, 1915, and F. A. Halliday

 pp. 257-8.
 
 139 
 (Educ.) and W. S. Entwistle (L.F.B.) were on H.M.S. 
 Clan McNaughton, an armed merchant cruiser em- 
 ployed on patrol duty, when she disappeared, having 
 probably foundered in heavy weather during February. 
 James Waddingham (R.M.L.I., L.F.B.) was killed by 
 a gunshot on 29th February, 1916, when H.M.S. 
 Alcantara was sunk by the Greif, a German raider, 
 and Alfred Bolt (Tram.) serving on Torpedo-boat No. 
 II as a gunner lost his hfe on 7th March, 1916, when, 
 having struck a mine off the East Coast, his vessel 
 sank with most of her crew. 
 
 H.M.S. Foyle struck a mine in the English Channel 
 on 15th March, 1917, and sank with the loss of 29 
 men, one of whom was Arthur Roake, D.S.M. (R.F.R,, 
 L.F.B.). Henry Carpenter (R.F.R., L.F.B.) lost his 
 hfe on 30th June, 19 17, when H.M.S. Cheerful, while 
 employed on escort duty, struck a mine and foundered 
 in the North Sea. H.M.S. Ettrick, engaged in convoying 
 transports, was torpedoed and sank on 7th July, 1917, 
 off Beachy Head, those killed including James New 
 (R.F.R., Tram.). C. J. C. Bastian (R.N., Educ.) was 
 killed on 9th July, 1917, when H.M.S. Vanguard blew 
 up in harbour as the result of an internal explosion. 
 A. C. Jones (R.N.R., L.F.B.) was drowned on 30th 
 July, 1917, when the s.s. Besswood on which he was 
 serving as a gimner sank in the Irish Sea after a 
 collision. H.M.S. Wolverine sank on 12th December, 
 1917, as a result of a collision, and John Richards (R.N., 
 Tram.) was among the very few who lost their lives. 
 
 J. W. Helps (Educ.) lost his life in the very gallant 
 action on 20th January, 1918, when H.M.S. Raglan, a 
 monitor of 4,500 tons, on which he was serving, aided 
 by a smaller vessel of the same type, engaged the 
 Goehen (22,640 tons) and the Breslau (4,480 tons) off 
 the Dardanelles. The British vessels, hopelessly out- 
 gunned, were both sunk, but the Breslau, retreating 
 after the engagement, struck a mine and sank, and the 
 Goehen also struck a mine and to avoid destruction 
 
 K

 had to be beached in the Narrows. C. L. Pain (Tram.) 
 was serving on H.M.S. Eleanor when on 12th February, 
 1918, while carrying a cargo of 2,000 mines, she blew 
 up with the loss of all hands. W. F. Harden (Educ.) 
 lost his life on i6th September, 1918, when an explosion 
 occurred on board H.M.S. Glutton which, having 
 caught fire, had to be destroyed in Dover Harbour so 
 as to prevent damage to the shipping and the town. 
 
 Decorations. 
 Lieut. A. G. Dodman (R.N.R., Ch. Engr.) received 
 the D.S.C. for the gallantry with which, while on 
 patrol duty in the east Mediterranean on 6th December, 
 1916, he went to the defence of the s.s, Camherwell, his 
 skilful action probably leading to the destruction of 
 the submarine making the attack. The facts relating 
 to other naval decorations gained by members of the 
 Council's staff are described under the various fronts. 
 
 CHAPTER Vni. 
 
 Royal Air Force. 
 
 Like the Royal Navy the Royal Air Force served on 
 all fronts, but, in view of its extraordinary develop- 
 ment during the war, its achievements can best be 
 dealt with as a whole. 
 
 Balloons, manned by detachments from the Royal 
 Engineers, were used in the British Army in 1879, 
 and rendered good service in the Bechuanaland Expe- 
 dition in 1884 and during the South African War, 
 1899-1902. The first British dirigible, the Nulli 
 Secundus, was commenced in 1902 but did not make 
 its first flight until 1907. Experiments with army 
 aeroplanes began in 1911 or perhaps a little earlier. 
 The Navy's experiments with dirigibles and aero- 
 planes date from 1908 and 191 1 respectively.^ About 
 
 ' It is interesting to compare these dates with the dates of the 
 inventions. The balloon was invented by the Montgolfier brothers, 
 the first man to make an ascent being Jean de Rozier in 1783, the
 
 141 
 this time only two small airships and fewer than 
 twelve efficient aeroplanes were available for all 
 purposes, but the new service rapidly developed, and 
 on 13th May, 1912, the Royal Flying Corps, with 
 naval and military wings, and a central flying school, 
 reserve and factory, was established. In 1913 the 
 dirigibles were transferred to the Navy, and in June, 
 1914, the naval wing became an independent force 
 under the name of the Royal Naval Air Service. 
 
 At the outbreak of war practically all the available 
 machines of the R.F.C., forming rather more than 
 three squadrons, crossed to France on 13th August, 
 1914, under the late Sir David Henderson, the majority 
 landing near Amiens. On the i6th they moved to 
 Maubeuge, and on the 19th made their first reconnais- 
 sances. Their value was soon proved for at Mons they 
 were the first to give warning of the French defeat on 
 the British right and of the German attempt to out- 
 flank the British left (see p. 6). They also reported 
 Von Kluck's swerve to the south-east from Amiens 
 (see p. 8) and the enemy's entrenchments on the 
 Aisne (see p. 9). 
 
 When the opposing armies settled down into trench 
 warfare, reconnaissance, although still most important, 
 became a matter of routine and new features were 
 developed. One of these was the regular photograph- 
 ing of the enemy's lines; by comparing later with 
 earlier photographs the position and nature of his 
 works and the progress made could be recorded. 
 Another task was watching for the gun-flashes which 
 revealed the position of enemy batteries. The fire of 
 our guns was then brought to bear upon these points, 
 corrections to the officers controlling the fire being 
 
 first successful dirigible was flown at Paris in 1852, the Wright 
 brothers made their first aeroplane flight in America on 17th Decem- 
 ber, 1903, and in Europe, at Le Mans, some 100 miles south-west of 
 Paris, in August, 1908. On 30th September, 1908, Henri Farman 
 made the first cross-country flight from Chalons to Rheims and on 
 25th July, 1909, Bleriot crossed the English Channel from Calais 
 to Dover.
 
 142 
 
 signalled at first by coloured lights, later by lamps 
 flashing the Morse code, and finally by wireless tele- 
 graphy. There had been fights in the air even during 
 the retreat from Mons, but these isolated combats 
 soon developed into systematic attempts to prevent 
 the enemy's machines from reaching our lines. Gener- 
 ally speaking, in the early fights, for fear of shooting 
 away the propeller, only rifles or machine-guns firing 
 to the side could be used. About the end of 1915 a 
 German aeroplane was captured on which the action 
 of the machine-gun trigger was synchronised with the 
 engine, so that bullets could be fired, without damage 
 to the blades, between the moving arms of the pro- 
 peller. This device was copied and fitted to most of 
 our machines, greatly improving their capacity for the 
 offensive. Small bombs for attacking ground targets 
 were also used as early as the retreat but they were 
 very primitive in construction and limited in action. 
 Their size and efficiency, as well as the distance which 
 they could be carried, were rapidly increased, so that 
 from Neuve Chapelle in 1915 all important battles were 
 preceded by aerial bombardments of railway and road 
 centres, dumps, batteries, troop trains, etc. Night 
 flying was introduced early in 1916. 
 
 These developments, spread over 1915 and the early 
 part of 1916, culminated in the preparations for the 
 Battle of the Somme. In this battle also one most 
 useful service was performed by the Corps for the first 
 time. An army's communications are always difficult 
 to maintain, and, during a big battle, the difficulties 
 are increased a hundredfold. The heavy fire cuts all 
 telephone wires, the continual explosions raise clouds 
 of smoke and dust through which no signals can be 
 seen, runners with messages cannot pass to and fro 
 through the artiller}^ barrage. Attacking troops soon 
 get out of touch with the higher commanders, some- 
 times they are fired upon by their own artillery, at 
 others they are overwhelmed by counter-attacks of
 
 143 
 
 which their artillery cannot be warned. The aeroplane 
 contact patrols altered all this. The assault troops, 
 by lighting flares in the bottom of the captured 
 trenches, signalled their position to aeroplanes over- 
 head, and a code of signals was devised covering the 
 most urgent of their needs. The higher command 
 were thus kept informed of the phases of the battle 
 and could do what was best to help the advance. 
 
 Apart from what was done at Kut (see p. 170) 
 aeroplanes were rarely used for conveying stores; 
 this work was not undertaken until the end of the 
 war and then only upon a small scale. Propaganda 
 literature was often dropped, and from the Battle of 
 Messines, 1917, onwards, enemy troops, whether in 
 trenches, in camps or on the march, were frequently 
 engaged by low-flying planes. One purpose to which 
 aeroplanes were put is of special interest. Our agents 
 were taken behind the enemy's lines, dropped by para- 
 chute, and not infrequently supplied with carrier 
 pigeons by the same means. There were rumours that 
 occasionally agents were even picked up after they had 
 completed their task and brought back. 
 
 In the latter part of the war much of the work of 
 artillery observation and of watching enemy move- 
 ments in forward areas was done by observers from 
 captive balloons. The most successful type was the 
 stream-line shape, ^ designed by Capt, Caquot, a 
 French officer, in which stability was secured by an 
 air-inflated tail with three air-inflated fins of equal 
 size set at angles of 120 deg. In France these balloons 
 were stationed at frequent intervals along the front, 
 three miles or so in rear of the line, eight or ten being 
 usually in sight at once; they were used on other 
 fronts as well. The occupants ran special risks, for the 
 balloons were tempting targets for the enemy's artillery 
 and aeroplanes, some were struck by lightning and 
 others broke loose in high winds. At sea an adapted 
 
 * Known to the troops as " sausages."
 
 144 
 type was used for convoy escort work. They were 
 towed by one of the convoy to which they could 
 telephone information concerning enemy submarines. 
 They were also used to support, at a height of some 
 10,000 feet, the aprons of steel cables with which 
 London was surrounded as a protection against aero- 
 plane attacks. 
 
 The R.N.A.S. was used chiefly for long distance 
 bombing raids, for maintaining coastal patrols by air- 
 ships and aeroplanes against submarines, for scouting 
 at sea, and for the defence of London and the coast 
 against attacks by air. A list of the raids would fill 
 several pages, so it must suffice to mention here by 
 way of illustration in 1914 alone the attacks on 
 22nd September on Zeppelin sheds at Dusseldorf and 
 Cologne, and on 21st November on the Zeppehn base 
 at Friedrichschafen on Lake Constance, the combined 
 attack by sea and land on Cuxhaven on Christmas 
 Day and the incessant attacks upon submarine, etc., 
 bases at Ostend, Zeebrugge and Bruges. On 7th 
 June 1915, Flight Sub. -Lieut. R. A. Warneford at 
 Ghent earned the distinction of being the first airman 
 to destroy a Zeppelin in the air, a feat for which he 
 was awarded the V.C. An officer of the R.N.A.S. was 
 also the first airman to sink a submarine at sea, this 
 happening on 26th August, 1915. 
 
 Both the R.F.C. and the R.N.A.S. served in all 
 the main theatres of war, and in each had to encounter 
 new dangers and difficulties. In hot countries, such as 
 Mesopotamia and the tropics for instance, the machines 
 were liable to be clogged with sand, and water in the 
 radiators boiled so easily that flying was usually 
 possible only in the early morning. The intense heat 
 also caused wood-work to warp, and machines of a 
 special pattern in which metal was used instead of 
 wood had to be designed. In Northern Russia, on the 
 other hand, the water in the radiators was liable to 
 freeze and difficult problems connected with lubrica-
 
 145 
 tion and ignition arose. At sea, and in Egypt and 
 tropical Africa, there was always the risk that the air- 
 man might be compelled by engine or other trouble to 
 alight upon the sea or in the desert or jungle far from 
 human aid. This danger was partly guarded against by 
 carrying on the planes pigeons which could be released 
 with messages for help. 
 
 The division of the air force into two independent 
 parts engendered a healthy spirit of emulation but it 
 also had grave drawbacks. It is obvious that there 
 would be much overlapping, little or no standardisa- 
 tion of equipment, and such keen competition for 
 limited supplies as to prevent either from obtain- 
 ing all that was desired. To meet these difficulties 
 the Joint War Air Committee was set up in February, 
 1916, to co-ordinate questions of supplies and design, 
 and three months later an advisory Air Board was 
 formed. The Board's functions gradually expanded, 
 in 191 7 supplies were pooled, and at the end of the 
 year Parhament authorised- the amalgamation of the 
 two services. The Royal Air Force as thus constituted 
 came into being on ist April, 1918. 
 
 The R.A.F. continued to develop the work of its 
 predecessors but no details call for special notice except 
 perhaps the part played by the Force in the final 
 defeat of the Turks in Palestine (see p. 165). The neigh- 
 bourhood of the enemy's aerodromes was patrolled so 
 effectively that none of their machines would venture 
 out. After the main battle on 19th September, 1918, 
 our aeroplanes patrolled the only road leading to the 
 crossings of the Jordan and, by systematic bombing 
 and machine-gun fire, reduced the defeated troops 
 into a mere rabble which on the arrival of the cavalry 
 and infantry surrendered without attempting to resist. 
 Similar but less complete results followed the defeats 
 of the Bulgarians at Lake Doiran in September, 1918 
 (see p. 179), and the Austrians at Vittorio Veneto in 
 October, 1918 (see p. 184). The Germans in their final
 
 146 
 
 retreat on the western front were protected by rain 
 and ground mists from a like fate. 
 
 In June, 1918, the Independent Air Force, succeed- 
 ing long-distance bombing units of the R.N.A.S.; was 
 formed for a definite purpose — the bombing of German 
 munition works. Much good work had already been 
 done, for during the previous eight months, which 
 included the severe winter of 19 17-18, 142 raids, of 
 which 57 were in Germany, had been made. The work 
 of the I.A.F. can best be summarised by stating that 
 in five months 550 tons of bombs were dropped, 160 
 by day and 390 by night, and that of this amount 220 
 tons were dropped on aerodromes. Special attention 
 was devoted to railways and to blast furnaces, the 
 reason for this being that the Germans were very 
 short of rolling stock, and serious damage would there- 
 fore lead to important results. A section was formed 
 for bombing Berlin. The necessary machines, each with 
 four engines of 375 horse power, were not received until 
 the end of October, and, although all ranks worked day 
 and night to equip them for their task, they were not 
 ready until the Armistice was about to be signed. 
 
 A few figures will help to illustrate the surprising 
 growth of the R.A.F. and its equipment. At the begin- 
 ning of the war the R.F.C. and the R.N.A.S. comprised 
 only a few hundred officers and men ; at the Armistice 
 there were in the R.A.F. some 28,000 officers and 
 264,000 other ranks, making a total of nearly 300,000. 
 In 1914 only 40 pupils could be dealt with at a time; 
 in 1918 30,000 cadets were under instruction at once. 
 In 1914 the R.F.C. had four squadrons -^ up to strength 
 and the R.N.A.S. rather fewer. In 1916 the R.F.C. 
 had 21 squadrons in France, eight in the Middle East 
 and a number at home. By March, 1918, these numbers 
 had risen to 76 and 14 respectively, with 22 for home 
 defence and special training. In November, 1918, the 
 
 ' The R.A.F. was organised as follows: six machines to a flight, 
 three flights to a squadron, three or four squadrons to a wing, two 
 or more wings to a brigade.
 
 147 
 
 number of squadrons was over 200, with another 200 
 for cadet training. The number of machines had 
 increased from less than 100 to about 22,000. The 
 machines had also improved. In 1914 the best machine 
 had a speed of 73 miles an hour and a climbing capacity 
 >of 3,000 feet in nine minutes; by 1917 speed had been 
 doubled and climbing capacity trebled. In place of a 
 single engine of 70 horse power, the most powerful 
 machines were fitted with two engines of 275 horse 
 power each and even four engines of 375 horse power 
 each. The potential output of complete machines rose 
 from 50 to 3,500 a month and of engines from 14 to 
 3,000 a month. The weight of the heaviest aerial 
 bomb, which in 1914 was about 14 lbs., increased in 
 1915 to 100 lbs., in 1916 to 336 lbs., and in 1918 to 
 1,600 lbs., or three-quarters of a ton. The seven air- 
 ships of 1914 had increased by 1918 to 103, including 
 five rigids.

 CHAPTER IX. 
 
 Gallipoli. 
 
 British influence with Turkey, at one time consider- 
 able, had, during the last thirty years or so, been, 
 much weakened. One cause of this was the occupation 
 of Egypt and Cyprus, another was the resentment 
 aroused by the spirited condemnations in England 
 of Turkish misrule, a third was the support given by 
 Great Britain after the first Balkan war in 1912-13 
 to the successful claims of Bulgaria and Greece to 
 Turkish territory, a fourth was the growing under- 
 standing between Great Britain and Russia, the 
 hereditary enemy of Turkey. While British influence 
 waned, that of Germany increased. German capital 
 was forthcoming both for public and private purposes, 
 Germany aided the negotiations for the construction 
 of the Bagdad railway, a German general with a 
 German staff was appointed to re-organise the army. 
 
 When the Great War broke out Great Britain was 
 seen to side with Russia, and the Turks were further 
 annoyed and alarmed by the fact that two battleships, 
 built for them and intended to strengthen their very 
 weak navy, were detained in England. At the same 
 time the German war vessels Goeben and Breslau, 
 eluding the Allied fleet in the Mediterranean, escaped 
 to Constantinople, and, when their dismantlement 
 was demanded, were sold or given to Turkey. After 
 three months' hesitation, Turkey on 31st October, 
 asserting that her fleet had been fired upon by 
 Russians, declared war. 
 
 The Allies soon dealt with the new combatant, 
 and decided to do this by means of a naval attack on 
 Constantinople. They realised that the fall of the city 
 would check Turkish activities in the Caucasus, 
 Mesopotamia and Egypt, would ensure the passage 
 of munitions to, and of food from, Russia, and also
 
 149 
 
 would lead to the neutrality, if not the assistance, of 
 Bulgaria, the safety of Serbia and the co-operation of 
 Greece. 
 
 The approach to Constantinople from the Medi- 
 terranean lies through the Dardanelles, the strait, 
 from one to six miles wide, which separates the pen- 
 insula of Gallipoli ^ from Asia Minor. To make clear 
 what follows it will be convenient to introduce here 
 a brief description of the district. The length of 
 Gallipoli (see plan on p. 150) is a little over fifty miles, 
 and its breadth varies from about three miles at 
 Bulair in the north-east to twenty-four east of Suvla 
 and about seven in the south-west; south of Suvla 
 and west of Maidos the width for a short distance 
 drops to less than five miles. It is a rolling, waterless 
 country, very beautiful in the spring when the hills 
 are covered with flowers, but, as these fade under the 
 summer sun, it takes on a tawny, dusty hue. There 
 is httle cultivation, the southern half being covered 
 chiefly with heather and scrub. Most of the coast 
 line consists of steep cliffs, a hundred feet high or 
 more, pierced here and there by guUies which open 
 out into narrow strips of beach two or three hundred 
 yards wide. The chief hills are Sari Bair, nearly a 
 thousand feet high, to the south of Suvla and com- 
 manding Suvla Bay and Anzac Cove, and Achi Baba, 
 six hundred feet high, which commands the beaches 
 near Cape Helles at the southern end of the peninsula. 
 Some of the latter, if not all, can also be fired upon 
 from the mainland of Asia Minor. 
 
 As a preliminary to the attack upon Constantinople 
 
 ^ The peninsula was Icnown to the Greeks in ancient times as the 
 Thiacian Chersonesus (Uterally " land island," which is equivalent 
 to peninsula) and the strait as the Hellespont. It was across the 
 Narrows that, according to the legend, Leander swam to visit 
 Hero and that Xerxes in B.C. 480 built the bridge of boats over 
 which he led his army to invade Greece. On the mainland of Asia 
 Minor, three or four miles from the south-western end of the Helles- 
 pont, were " reedy Siraois " and the " plains of windy Troy " of 
 which Homer, the first pagan poet whose works have come down 
 to us, sang in the Iliad.

 GALLIPOLI.
 
 forts guarding the entrance to the Dardanelles were 
 bombarded from the ^gean on 3rd November, 1914, 
 but it was not until 19th February, 1915, after what 
 appeared to be much vacillation in the higher conduct 
 of the enterprise, that the reduction of the defences 
 was seriously undertaken by the British and French 
 navies, acting alone. When the weather permitted 
 during the next four weeks the bombardment was 
 renewed, and several of the forts were at least silenced, 
 if not destroyed An attempt, however, on i8th 
 March to force the Narrows failed with the loss of 
 several ships, and it was then determined that the next 
 assault should be in conjunction with troops on land. 
 The nearest place at which troops or stores could be 
 collected was Egypt, 700 miles away. To facilitate 
 the work an advanced base was formed at Mudros, 
 in the island of Lemnos, but even this was fifty miles 
 from Gallipoli, and only the simplest equipment 
 could be provided there. As the peninsula was for 
 the most part barren and waterless it was necessary, 
 in addition to arranging for the transport of the 
 attacking troops with their guns and ammunition, 
 to make complete arrangements for supplying them 
 with all the food and water they required, and for 
 providing food and water for the transport animals 
 and shelter and medical stores for the sick. These 
 preparations occupied four weeks, although some of 
 the delay would not have been necessary if, owing to 
 faulty organisation, men had not been conveyed 
 separately from their ammunition, guns from the 
 gun-carriages, and wagons from their horses. As it 
 was, many of the transports, when they arrived at 
 Mudros, had to be taken back to Egypt, where their 
 contents were re-arranged. The Turks, warned by 
 the naval bombardments and by the traffic at sea, 
 to expect an attack, had every opportunity to complete 
 their preparations. Troops and guns were hurried 
 into the peninsula, stores and ammunition were
 
 152 
 
 collected, trenches were dug on commanding sites, and 
 the few and narrow approaches, including even the 
 shallow parts of the sea, were obstructed with strong 
 wire entanglements. 
 
 The landing, under Sir Ian Hamilton as commander- 
 in-chief, was attempted at dawn on Sunday, 25th 
 April, at five points around the southern end of the 
 peninsula and at one to the north of Gaba Tepe on 
 the western coast. The assault on the former was 
 entrusted to the 29th Division, composed of units of 
 the Regular Army, and to the newly formed R. Naval 
 Di\dsion, and that on the latter to troops from Australia 
 and New Zealand. Each landing, so far as possible, was 
 to be protected by the guns of the ships. The French 
 effected a diversion by landing at Kum Kale in Asia 
 Minor opposite Helles, Having done this they with- 
 drew some days later and took over the right of the 
 British line at Helles. Reckoning from the east, the 
 positions assailed on the peninsula were S beach, or 
 De Tott's Battery, V Beach near Sedd-el-Bahr, W 
 Beach (or " Lancashire Landing," from the heroism 
 displayed by the ist Lancashire Fus.) between Capes 
 Helles and Tekke, X Beach to the north of Cape 
 Tekke, Y Beach three miles further north, and Z 
 Beach, afterwards known as Anzac,^ ten miles north 
 of Y Beach. 
 
 At V Beach three companies of the ist R. Dublin 
 Fus., and a party from the Anson Battalion, R.N.D., 
 while being landed from boats were shot down. The 
 collier River Clyde was run aground, and the troops on 
 board endeavoured to reach the shore across a bridge 
 of boats. In doing this and in maintaining the bridge, 
 three companies of the ist R. Munster Fus. and two 
 of the 2nd Hants were almost destroyed, only a 
 remnant finding, under a low sand-bank, protection 
 from the terrible rifle and machine-gun fire which 
 
 ' The word was coined from the initial letters of the title " Aus- 
 tralian and New Zealand Army Corps."
 
 153 
 swept the beach. The remainder of these three batta- 
 lions stayed on board under continual fire until night- 
 fall, when they managed to land. Having joined the 
 survivors on shore they attacked the village and old 
 fort of Sedd-el-Bahr, but in the darkness and unknown 
 country the attack miscarried, and the force was 
 almost overwhelmed by a counter-attack. Early on 
 the morning of the 26th the attempt was renewed, and, 
 aided by the guns from the fleet, was successful. 
 
 At W Beach the ist Lancashire Fus,, supported by 
 the 4th Worcesters and the ist Essex, and at X Beach 
 the 2nd R. Fusiliers, with a working-party from the 
 Anson Battalion, R.N.D., and assisted by the 1st R. 
 Inniskilling Fus., were even more successful, and the 
 landings were secured on the first day with casualties 
 which, though heavy, were not so heavy as at V Beach. 
 The attacks at S and Y Beaches were planned chiefly 
 with the object of diverting the enemy's reserves and 
 of thus protecting the main attack at V, W and X 
 Beaches. That at S Beach by the 2nd S. Wales Bor- 
 derers succeeded, and the ground won was permanently 
 held, but at Y Beach the ist K.O. Scottish Borderers 
 and the Plymouth Battalion, R.N.D., having accom- 
 plished their purpose, were withdrawn on the 26th. At 
 Anzac the troops forced a landing, pressed on up steep 
 gullies, beat off numerous counter-attacks, and by 
 the evening of the 26th had made good their advance 
 on a front of over two miles to a depth in parts of 
 nearly one mile. Units of the R.N.D., supported by 
 the Navy, made a feint attack upon the enemy's lines 
 at Bulair at the neck of the peninsula, but no landing 
 was seriously attempted. 
 
 When the positions gained on the various beaches 
 had been consolidated and while stores and ammu- 
 nition were being landed our men had some sort of 
 a respite. This was badly needed, for many, exhausted 
 by lack of food, water and sleep, by the toil of digging 
 for most of the day under a hot sun and of carrying
 
 154 
 heavy loads most of the night, and by the strain of 
 frequent counter-attacks, were nearing the Umits of 
 their endurance. About this time some Indian troops 
 and units from the 42nd Division arrived as reinforce- 
 ments. During May the line was slowly advanced from 
 Helles towards Krithia, a village on the slopes of Achi 
 Baba, the chief assaults being on 6th-8th May and on 
 4th and 28th June. Counter-attacks were frequent 
 and in particular one on the night of I9th/20th May 
 at Anzac, where the lines had been stationary since 
 the landing, was so violent and the Turkish losses so 
 heavy that they were granted an armistice in which 
 to bury their dead. Two British submarines, Eii and 
 E14, gallantly penetrating the minefields in the straits 
 torpedoed several Turkish transports carrying rein- 
 forcements. By the end of the month, that is, in six 
 weeks from the first landing, the casualties among the 
 British and Anzacs amounted to nearly 40,000, a 
 number which exceeded the total battle casualties 
 in the whole of the South African War. 
 
 The next two months were marked by frequent 
 attacks and counter-attacks, leading to no definite 
 result, and it became clear that, although our forces 
 had been strengthened by the arrival of the 13th 
 and 52nd Divisions, the Turkish line could not be 
 carried by direct assault. A plan was therefore 
 formed to land a force at Suvla Bay three miles to 
 the north of Anzac, and then to advance from Anzac 
 upon the Sari Bair ridge. It was hoped in this 
 way to cut the enemy's communications and to turn 
 his position. Accordingly on 6th August the enemy's 
 attention was engaged near Helles by an attack (which 
 happened just to forestall an attack which he was 
 planning) and during the night following a landing was 
 effected at Suvla by part of the loth and by the nth 
 Divisions. The 53rd and 54th Divisions landed later. 
 The opposition was comparatively slight, and, if 
 prompt action had been taken, a great success might
 
 155 
 have been achieved. The delay in pressing our advan- 
 tage was due partly to the exhaustion of the soldiers 
 who, notwithstanding elaborate precautions, suffered 
 terribly from lack of water, but still more to inertia 
 and confusion in the local higher command upon which 
 Sir Ian Hamilton commented somewhat severely in 
 his despatch. The 6th E. Yorks who had occupied 
 Scimitar Hill with hardly any fighting were, in error, 
 withdrawn in order to attack elsewhere. The Turks 
 were able to bring up reinforcements and the advance 
 which might with so little loss of life have led to great 
 results was checked. Meanwhile the advance from 
 Anzac by British, Dominion and Indian troops, 
 although impeded by the partial failure at Suvla, 
 proceeded slowly up almost precipitous heights covered 
 with scrub, and early in the morning of 8th August a 
 ridge near Chunuk Bair was seized which commanded 
 a view across the peninsula to the Narrows. The 6th 
 S. Lanes from the 13th Division and some Gurkhas, 
 however, who so gallantly captured it came under the 
 fire of their own guns, troops which should have 
 supported them lost their way, and under heavy 
 counter-attacks the ridge had to be abandoned. 
 Although the attack thus failed, the area held at Anzac 
 was enlarged from less than one mile to about eight. 
 
 The troops having been reinforced by a dismounted 
 Yeomanry division from Egypt, a further attempt to 
 advance from Suvla Bay was made on 21st August. 
 After severe fighting which continued during the night, 
 positions were gained on Scimitar Hill. It was decided 
 that these would be untenable by day and our men 
 were withdrawn. 
 
 After the failure at Suvla the fighting died down 
 into the routine of trench warfare. Early in October 
 two of the English and one of the French divisions 
 were sent to Salonica (see p. 176) and towards the 
 middle of the month Sir Ian Hamilton was ordered 
 to advise upon the evacuation of the peninsula. A few
 
 156 
 days later he was recalled to England and Sir Charles 
 Monro was appointed in his place. This officer reported 
 strongly in favour of evacuation and his opinion was 
 confinned by Lord Kitchener who, towards the middle 
 of November, inspected portions of the lines at Helles, 
 Anzac and Suvla. 
 
 A striking incident showed the risk of remaining 
 during the winter. On 27th November a sudden gale 
 from the south-west destroyed several piers and 
 landing stages and did much damage among the 
 smaller transports. At the same time a deluge of rain 
 converted the trenches into torrents in which friend 
 and foe, stores and mules, were swept away. This was 
 followed by a blizzard, lasting for nearly two days 
 and nights, and this again by a heavy frost. The 
 troops suffered terribly from the unusual cold, many 
 died, and about 10,000 sick had to be removed. 
 
 The evacuation was begun at Anzac and Suvla 
 and was completed there on the night of I9th/20th 
 December, just in time to avoid a storm which arose 
 a few hours later. More than 83,000 men were em- 
 barked (with the accidental loss of only two men), 
 with 5,000 horses and mules, 2,000 wagons and 200 
 guns. At Helles our men were even more fortunate, 
 for a south-westerly gale was beginning to blow as the 
 last of them left the shore. There the evacuation was 
 completed in the early morning of 9th January, 1916, 
 and included 35,000 men, 4,000 animals and no guns. 
 
 The assault upon the peninsula, urged with such 
 gallantry for so many months and in face of so many 
 difficulties, thus ended in failure. This was not due to 
 any lack of bravery, daring, skill or endurance on the 
 part of the rank and file, but rather to the inability of 
 the superior commands to meet the demands of so 
 great an enterprise and to the fact that, in spite of 
 repeated requests, adequate reinforcements were not 
 forthcoming. In the House of Commons on 20th 
 March, 1917, Mr. Asquith, commenting upon the report
 
 157 
 of the Dardanelles Commission, claimed that the 
 expedition had saved the position of Russia in the 
 Caucasus, had delayed for months the defection of 
 Bulgaria, had kept immobilised at least 300,000 Turks, 
 and had contributed to the favourable development 
 of events in Egypt, Mesopotamia and Persia. 
 
 Arthur Roake (R.N.R., L.F.B.) was awarded the 
 D.S.M. for his gallantry on 25th April, 1915, when, 
 being one of a small party which had been landed to 
 reconnoitre, he carried a wounded officer under heavy 
 fire back to the boats, and the next day acted as a 
 guide to a second party. Sergt. W. F. Bird (ist Co. 
 of Lond. Yeo., Educ.) was awarded the D.C.M. for 
 conspicuous gallantry, on 21st August, 1915, at Suvla, 
 when, as medical orderly, he remained under fire 
 attending the wounded, and displayed great bravery 
 and devotion to duty. E. Griffiths (R.F.R., L.F.B.) 
 won the D.S.M. 
 
 The casualties were: killed 28,200, wounded 78,095, 
 missing 11,254, making a total of 117,549; there 
 were also nearly 100,000 sick, chiefly cases of dysentery, 
 malaria, and, towards the end of the occupation, 
 frost-bite. The deaths among the Council's staff were:

 ^ CHAPTER X. 
 
 Egypt and Palestine. 
 
 At the outbreak of war with Turkey it was estimated 
 that about 140,000 troops were concentrated at 
 Damascus, and it was anticipated that a part of these 
 would be used for an attempt upon the Suez Canal. 
 It was true that to reach the canal the enemy would 
 have to cross the Sinai Peninsula, a waterless desert 
 120 miles wide, and that failure would be disastrous. 
 On the other hand the enterprise, if successful, would 
 sever a vital link in the British communications with 
 India and the East, and such a possibility, however 
 remote, had to be guarded against. 
 
 At the end of January, 1915, a Turkish column 
 reached El Arish, passed through Wadi-el-Arish,^ 
 and on 3rd February endeavoured to cross the Canal 
 
 • A wadi is a rocky watercourse, dry except in the rainy season.
 
 159 
 south of Ismalia. Our troops, fully warned, easily 
 repulsed the attack, killed large numbers of the enemy 
 and took 600 prisoners. 
 
 The British now pushed forward a railway from 
 Kantara, and early in 1916 Qatia was reached. In 
 April the Turks tried to interfere with the work but 
 were driven off. In July an expedition of 18,000 men, 
 hugging the coast, made some progress, but, bombarded

 from British monitors at sea, and harried by mounted 
 troops on its left and rear, it was completely defeated 
 on 4th/5th August with the loss of half its number in 
 casualties and prisoners. 
 
 The Senussi of Solium. 
 
 Trouble also arose with the Senussi on the western 
 frontier. These were Arabs, nominally subject to the 
 Turks, and, as they acknowledge in a loose way the 
 reUgious authority of the Sultan, they were easily 
 aroused against the Infidel. Early in December, 1915, 
 a composite force, which included the 2/7th and 2 /8th
 
 i6o 
 
 Middlesex, occupied Matruh midway between the 
 Nile and the western frontier and defeated the enemy 
 several times in the neighbourhood. A defeat in 
 February, 19 16, at Agagiya, sixty miles to the west, 
 drove them back to Solium where they were dispersed, 
 with the loss of all their equipment, by armoured cars. 
 Some of the fugitives fled 500 miles to the south-east 
 along the oases which form a rough natural boundary 
 between the desert plateau to the west of the Nile, 
 and the Libyan Desert, and eventually reached the 
 Dakhla oasis, near Upper Egypt. They were driven 
 out in October, 1916, and a remnant which reached 
 the Siwa oasis, 150 miles from Solium, was defeated 
 in February, 19 17. 
 
 Palestine. 
 
 As a preliminary to the invasion of Palestine the 
 Turks in January, 19 17, were driven out of El Arish 
 and Rafah and the Qatia railway was continued to the 
 latter place. Anticipating an attack they strongly forti- 
 fied Gaza, Beersheba and the district between the Wadi 
 Ghuzze and the Wadi es Sheria. In March our assault 
 was launched. A few cavalry entered Gaza on the 26th 
 but were cut off and, although the 53rd and part of the 
 54th Divisions surrounded the town, they were with- 
 drawn a day or so later. On 17th April the attack was 
 renewed, the 53rd Division attacking along the coast 
 with the 52nd and 54th on their right. The assault 
 seems to have been even less successful than the 
 earlier attempt and, after two days' hard fighting, our 
 men were withdrawn. 
 
 It was probably in this fighting that Co.-Sergt.-Maj. 
 (afterwards Lieut.) W. A. Trumble (7th Essex, Arch.) 
 was awarded the D.C.M. for his " marked ability and 
 courage in handling his section in two engagements." 
 
 R. H. Lunn (Essex, Educ.) was killed near Gaza on 
 26th March, and M. T. Lucas (2/ioth ]\Iiddx., Educ.) 
 near the same place on 19th April. Lieut. H. J. Payne, 
 (4th Suss., Comp.) and F. A. Toseland (Highd. L.I.,
 
 i6i 
 
 Asylums) on their way to Egypt were drowned on 
 4th May, 1917, when the transport Transylvania was 
 torpedoed in the Mediterranean. 
 
 Capture of Gaza and Beersheba. 
 
 The Turks took the opportunity to strengthen their 
 defences which were held by ten divisions. General 
 Sir Edmund Allenby, now in command, determined 
 to assault a point to the west of Beersheba where the 
 country was so rugged that the enemy considered 
 elaborate fortifications to be unnecessary. The pre- 
 parations, which included the construction of many 
 miles of roads and branch railways, the laying of 
 rabbit wire on long stretches of sand so as to provide 
 passable tracks for traffic, and the formation of depots 
 for stores and munitions, occupied three months. 
 
 By October all was ready and on the 27th Gaza was 
 heavily bombarded from the land and the sea, while a 
 sortie from the town was beaten off. The enemy's 
 attention being thus concentrated upon the right of 
 his line, the 6oth and 74th Divisions advanced by a 
 night march, and at dawn on the 31st attacked the 
 sector west of Beersheba, By the early afternoon the 
 defences had been breached, and later in the day the 
 town, with 2,000 prisoners, was seized by Australian 
 Horse which had made a wide detour to the east. On 
 ist November Tuweil-abu- Jerwal, a commanding 
 height north of the town, was occupied by the 53rd 
 Division, and the Tel-Kuweilfe pass, still further to 
 the north, was blocked. Turning west the loth and 
 60th Divisions on the 6th captured a sector of the 
 defences towards Gaza, and the 60th at Sheria also 
 cut the railway leading to Jerusalem. The Turks had 
 been held in Gaza by the 52nd Division, which ad- 
 vanced before dawn on the 2nd, but the situation 
 was now desperate and they retreated in disorder 
 along the coast. The town was occupied on the 7th. 
 Thus in one week Gaza and Beersheba were captured,

 very formidable positions between those two towns. 
 Some 9,000 prisoners and 80 guns were captured.

 Fall of Jerusalem and Jericho. 
 
 The Turks next attempted to make a stand at El 
 Kubab on high ground guarding Jerusalem and the 
 railway thereto, but were driven out by the 52nd 
 Division. Ramleh was seized on the 15th and Jaffa on 
 the i6th, the latter forming a useful base for supplies 
 by sea. The enemy were now hemmed in on the high 
 ground to the east and south-east of Jerusalem. 
 Avoiding any frontal attack on this main position. 
 General Allenby on the 20th seized the Nebi Samwal 
 ridge north of Jerusalem by means of the 75th Division. 
 On 8th December the 53rd Division advanced from 
 the south and east and the 60th and 74th from the 
 west, east and north. Next day the city surrendered 
 and on the nth it was entered by our victorious troops. 
 
 Fresh enemy troops advancing towards the city 
 were driven off on 27th December by yeomanry and 
 the loth Division and, following up this success, our 
 troops next day pushed the enemy back some miles. 
 Several weeks of rain caused hostilities to be suspended 
 and time was thus given for putting roads and railways 
 into repair. Towards the end of February, 1918, 
 fighting commenced again, and the 6oth Division with 
 Anzac horse fought their way towards Jericho which 
 was entered on the 21st.

 Raids across the Jordan. 
 
 Early in the war many Arab tribes in Hejaz, to the 
 east of the Red Sea, threw off the Turkish suzerainty, 
 which for long they had barely acknowledged, and a 
 force under Feisal, son of the King of Hejaz, in 
 addition to protecting the right flank of Allenby's 
 advance, also attacked various posts between the 
 Red Sea and the Dead Sea and harried the Turkish 
 lines of communication along the railway from 
 Damascus to Mecca. ^ To assist these columns 
 the 6oth Division and Anzacs on 2ist March, 1918, 
 forced the passage of the Jordan and pushed on to Es 
 Salt which was occupied on the 25th. Attempts during 
 the next few days to reach the railway in strength 
 failed, but small raiding parties cut it in several places 
 and on 2nd April the troops were withdrawn. On the 
 30th the attack was renewed when mounted troops 
 again occupied Es Salt and the Goth Division assaulted 
 positions to the south-west. A Turkish counter-attack 
 upon the left flank of the expedition was successful 
 and forced our men to retire with the loss of nine guns. 
 As a set-off nearly one thousand Turks were captured. 
 
 Capt. F. V. Harris (loth Lond., Solr.) won the M.C. 
 on 26th March but no details are available. Co.-Sergt.- 
 Maj. B. C. Hales (2/23rd Lond., Educ.) was awarded 
 the D.C.M. for his gallantry during the first raid. 
 " He took command of his company, when all the 
 officers had been wounded. Under intense rifle and 
 machine-gun fire he moved fearlessly about, encour- 
 aging and organising his much depleted company. 
 Afterwards, he was placed in command of the left of 
 the battalion line, when his courage and resource 
 under heavy fire materially assisted in beating off two 
 strong counter-attacks."

 Battle of Megiddo. 
 The success of the German offensives in France from 
 March onwards led to the recall of the 52nd and 74th 
 and the bulk of the 6oth Divisions, their place being 
 taken by Indian troops, chiefly from Mesopotamia. 
 Large Turkish forces were detached for service in 
 Persia and elsewhere, so that for once the Allies had 
 the advantage in numbers. As soon as his new troops 
 were properly incorporated in the army General 
 Allenby decided to seize the opportunity for over- 
 whelming the enemy in this part. Accordingly on 
 i8th September the loth and 53rd Divisions made a 
 feint on the right of our line to the north of Jerusalem, 
 and next day the main attack was launched against 
 the enemy's positions on the coastal plain north of 
 Jaffa. This was completely successful; two important 
 lines of defence were overrun, and on the 20th three 
 cavalry divisions, pushing forward through the gap 
 thus formed and wheeling eastward, cut the enemy's 
 lines of retreat at El Afuleh and Beisan and seized the 
 crossings over the Jordan. Liman von Sanders, the 
 German commander-in-chief, narrowly escaped capture 
 at Nazareth, his headquarters. Under attacks by the 
 loth and 53rd, aided by several Indian divisions, from 
 the south and west the enemy now turned and fled, 
 and, as the main outlets were already held by our 
 troops, escape was possible only for small scattered 
 bodies using the rough and narrow liill tracks. The 
 disorganisation was completed by the airmen who 
 dispersed the fugitives with bombs iind machine-gun 
 fire. Such of the enemy as escaped were relentlessly 
 pursued, and^Damascus surrendered on ist October 
 js and Beirut on the 7th. In less than three weeks from
 
 1 66 
 
 the opening of the attack 75,000 prisoners (including 
 3,000 Germans and Austrians) and 300 guns were 
 
 captured ; out of 
 three Turkish annies 
 only some 17,000 
 escaped death or 
 capture. 
 
 The advance still 
 continued and, as the 
 enemy offered little 
 resistance, progress 
 was rapid. Tripoli 
 surrendered on 13th 
 October and Horns 
 on the i6th, while on 
 the 26th Aleppo and 
 Muslimie, the latter 
 an important railway 
 centre, were captured 
 after a brisk skir- 
 mish with enemy 
 rearguards. General 
 Townshend, who had 
 been taken prisoner 
 at Kut (see p. 170), 
 was now released 
 with the request that 
 he would arrange an immediate armistice. This was 
 signed on the 30th when the Turks agreed to open 
 the Dardanelles and Bosphorus, to surrender all 
 prisoners, to demobilise their army and to transfer 
 to the Allies the control of all railways. 
 
 During this fighting no members of the Council's 
 staff were killed, but Lieut. W. A. Trumble, D.C.M. 
 (6th Essex, Arch.) died in Egypt on 9th October, and 
 W. Jackson (2/22nd Lond., Educ.) near Jerusalem of 
 malaria on the 13th, and Corp. E. M. Stiller (R.F.A., 
 Tram.) died in hospital at Alexandria of pneumonia on 
 14th December. 
 
 SKETCH OF FINAL ADVANCE.

 CHAPTER XI. 
 
 Mesopotamia. 
 
 When war broke out with Turkey the occupation of 
 Basra was urged as a means of diverting Turkish 
 troops from the threatened attack on the Suez Canal 
 and Egypt, and of protecting the Anglo-Persian oil 
 line, an important source of supply for the British 
 Navy. Accordingly a mixed British and Indian Force, 
 which was despatched to Mesopotamia with this object, 
 defeated the Turks at Sahil, and on 22nd November, 
 1914, entered Basra. On 9th December the garrison 
 of Qurna, 40 miles higher up, surrendered with nine 
 guns. 
 
 Much of Mesopotamia is waste sandy loam, subject 
 to sand storms during the hot weather and turning 
 into an adhesive mud during the wet season. As there 
 are few roads or even tracks, the rivers are the chief 
 means of communication, but they have swift currents, 
 are liable to floods and are encumbered with numerous 
 shallows. Few troops were available for further opera- 
 tions, and the difficulties of transporting them and 
 their supplies were very great. 
 
 Some months elapsed before reinforcements arrived, 
 and the Turks, encouraged by the delay, took the 
 initiative, but were driven back at Shaiba on 14th 
 April, 1915. During May Gen. Townshend, having 
 collected or improvised some sort of water transport, 
 advanced with one division up the Tigris and, taking 
 the garrison of Amara more or less by surprise, occupied 
 the town on the 29th. At the same time the advance 
 was consolidated by troops under General Gorringe 
 which cleared the enemy from the district between 
 Ahwaz and Amara and in July advanced up the 
 Euphrates and took Nasiriya. 
 
 ^ The water transport, barely sufficient for the original 
 expedition, had now to serve twice the number of 
 men, and the problem of supplying the troops with
 
 i68 
 
 food and ammunition and of dealing with the sick and 
 wounded became very serious. Nevertheless General 
 Townshend was ordered to advance. On 29th September 
 he defeated the enemy at Kut, captured the town with 
 1,700 prisoners and much war material, and followed

 up the victory by sending his cavalry in pursuit to 
 Aziziya, 50 miles farther up the river. 
 
 It was generally considered that to continue the 
 advance, without substantial reinforcements and 
 greatly improved transport, would be unwise, even 
 disastrous, and early in October the Government of 
 India ordered a halt. Why this order was afterwards
 
 169 
 waived is not clear. The British Government seem to 
 have represented that, prospects in Gallipoh being 
 uncertain, a striking success in the East was desirable, 
 and the mihtary authorities may have been too 
 sanguine-. Whatever the reason, a few reinforcements 
 were sent but no transport, and in November, when 
 the Turks had organised their defences, the advance 
 was renewed. On the 21st our men drove the enemy 
 out of Laj, pushed on nine miles, and on the 22nd 
 attacked the main position at Ctesiphon, only sixteen 
 miles from Baghdad. Two lines of trenches were 
 captured, but enemy reinforcements compelled the 
 British to retire to the first line. They were now out- 
 numbered by about two to one, and on the night of 
 the 25th/26th a retreat was ordered. On 3rd Decem- 
 ber, after a series of rear-guard actions, Kut was 
 reached in safety. 
 
 The town lies on a strip of land, one mile broad and 
 two deep, with the Tigris on three sides of it (see plan 
 on p. 170). Across the neck of this strip entrenchments 
 were dug, and buildings on the farther, that is the 
 south side of the river,^ were also fortified. On the 
 9th the Turks commenced the assault and drove in 
 the southern outpost. Four attacks on loth December 
 were beaten back and, after a period of comparative 
 rest, a fifth on the 24th, supported by heavy reinforce- 
 ments, met with a like fate. Meanwhile the enemy, in 
 order to hold up any relieving expedition, erected 
 strong fortifications below the town, chiefly at Es 
 Sinn on the south bank and at Hanna and Sanna-i-Yat 
 on the north bank where there were extensive marshes. 
 
 The winter rains now set in, turning much of the 
 country into a morass, but early in January, 1916, a 
 relieving column under General Aylmer, although 
 hampered by lack of transport, reached Hanna, 
 twenty miles away, where it was checked and had to

 lyo 
 retire. A second attempt on the night of the gth/ioth 
 March, this time on the south side of the river towards 
 the Dujaila Redoubt, miscarried in the darkness, and, 
 after severe fighting, the troops were withdrawn. At 
 the third attempt the 13th Division, under Gen, 
 Maude, captured five lines of trenches at Hanna on 
 5th April, and on the 9th, after the advance had been 
 held up by floods, breached the Sanna-i-Yat defences.

 South of the river our troops reached Bait Aissa, but 
 neither body could get any farther. 
 
 Although rations had been reduced to a half and 
 then to a fourth, and supplies had been dropped from 
 aeroplanes, all food in Kut, including the battery 
 bullocks and mules, had now been consumed, and on 
 29th April, arms and ammunition having been 
 destroyed, the town, after a siege of five months, 
 surrendered. 
 
 Corp. H. J. Belben (4th Hants, Educ), serving with 
 one of the relieving columns, died of disease at Amara 
 on 19th January, 1916. 
 
 The British spent the summer and autumn of 1916 
 on the defensive, but the time was fully occupied 
 by Sir Stanley Maude, now commander-in-chief, in
 
 171 
 organising transport, in accumulating stores, in 
 training the reinforcements which were being freely 
 sent, and generally in preparing for an advance. The 
 Turks also laboured incessantly, constructing on the 
 south side of the river at Kut, one within the other, 
 four elaborate trench systems, the outermost of which 
 extended for about thirty miles. The British attack 
 opened on 13th December with a bombardment of 
 the Sanna-i-Yat defences. This was only a feint, for 
 the main body, crossing the desert, advanced towards 
 Kut along both banks of the Shatt-el-Hai which 
 connects the Tigris with the Euphrates. The ruse 
 succeeded and the defending troops were taken by 
 surprise. Heavy rains now fell for several weeks, but 
 the troops pressed on and by 19th January, 191 7, 
 after much desperate fighting, had cleared the enemy 
 from the four trench systems east of the Hai and had 
 reached the Tigris. This success was followed on 3rd 
 February by the storming of the defences which 
 covered the junction of the Tigris and the Hai, and by 
 the 15th the enemy had been cleared from the elaborate 
 defences west of the Hai. On the i6th the attack at 
 Sanna-i-Yat was resumed with success and, while the 
 enemy's attention was engaged there, the Tigris was 
 crossed on the 23rd at Shumran to the west of Kut. 
 Next day the British broke through at Sanna-i-Yat 
 and the Turks everywhere retreated in disorder, the 
 retreat being hastened by our cavalry and by gun- 
 boats on the river. 
 
 Aziziya was reached on the 27th and, after a brief 
 halt while the lines of communication were being 
 organised, the troops went forward again, occupying 
 Ctesiphon on 6th March without resistance. The 
 Diyala was crossed on the night of the 8th/9th, and 
 on the nth our troops entered Baghdad. 
 
 At each stage of the advance many prisoners were 
 taken and at Baghdad, the terminus of the railway 
 from Constantinople, much war material, including 
 
 M
 
 172 
 
 railway and hospital equipment, arms and munitions, 
 was seized. 
 
 Major G. R. Treadwell (6th E. Lanes, Educ.) was 
 killed on 5th February, 1917, and Lance-Corp. A. E. 
 Morris (8th R. Welch Fus., Educ.) and Arthur Walker 
 (8th R. Welch Fus., Tram.) on the 15th, all to the west 
 of Kut. 
 
 Operations in Upper Mesopotamia. 
 
 The capture of Baghdad was immediately con- 
 solidated by stationing strong outposts up the Tigris, 
 
 MESOPOTAMIA AND PERSIA. 
 
 Diyala and Euphrates. Mushaidiya,^ situated on the 
 first, was seized on i6th March after a sharp encounter 
 with the enemy; Baquba, on the second, on the i8th; 
 and Feludja, on the third, on the 19th. On the 23rd 
 a force from Baquba occupied Shahraban, twenty 
 miles to the north-east, and, after several conflicts 
 with the Turks who were being driven out of Persia 
 by the Russians, established touch with the latter at 
 Kizil Robat, on 2nd April. On the 21st the enemy were 
 defeated at Istabulat in front of Samarra, an important 
 position on the Tigris and the railway, and two days 
 
 ' See plan on p. 168.
 
 173 
 later that place was seized as well as more war material. 
 The first attack, on nth July, upon Ramadi, thirty 
 miles up the Euphrates from Feludja, was a failure, 
 but a second attempt succeeded on 29th September, 
 when 3,500 prisoners and the bulk of the enemy's 
 remaining stores in this part were captured. 
 
 In the midst of these striking successes Sir Stanley 
 Maude, to whom so much of their credit was due, died 
 of cholera at Baghdad on i8th November, 1917. 
 General Sir W. R. Marshall, his second-in-command, 
 was entrusted with the conduct of affairs and during 
 19 18 Hit and Khan Baghdad on the Euphrates were 
 captured in March with 4,000 prisoners, and the enemy 
 was routed and pursued to a point beyond Ana 
 This put an end to any risk of an attack down the 
 Euphrates. At the end of April the Turks were de- 
 feated at Kirkuk, north of the Diyala, with further 
 heavy losses. The offensive up the Tigris was resumed 
 in October, and on the 27th the enemy were attacked 
 by our infantry at Sharqat, while cavalry and armoured 
 cars blocked the hnes of retreat. On the 30th the 
 whole force to the number of about 7,000 with all 
 stores, etc., surrendered. Mosul, 550 miles from Basra, 
 and 200 from Baghdad, was occupied a few days later. 
 The terms of the armistice with Turkey have already 
 been given (see p. 166). 
 
 Capt. J. T. Snelgar (5th Wilts, Educ.) was awarded 
 the M.B.E. for general good work as adjutant and 
 for staff work in connection with the capture and 
 occupation of Kirkuk. 
 
 Sergt. A. Peters (7th Glouc, Tram.) died of typhus 
 on loth July, G. F. Jago (R.A.S.C, Educ.) of typhoid 
 on 30th November, and B. A. M. Dunning "(R.E., 
 Tram.) of dysentery on 6th December. 
 
 Persia and Caucasia. 
 After hostihties between Germany and Russia had 
 definitely ceased towards the end of 1917, it was 
 feared that the enemy might penetrate through the
 
 174 
 southern parts of Asiatic Russia, and so threaten our 
 positions in Mesopotamia and to the north-west of 
 India. A mihtary mission, despatched from India 
 in the early part of 1918, therefore occupied Meshed 
 and estabhshed posts on the railway at Krasnovodsk, 
 Askhabad and Merv. These four places are all to the 
 east of the Caspian Sea.^ 
 
 For the same reasons it was necessary to strengthen 
 our positions up, and to the north-east of, the Diyala. 
 Hamadan, in north-west Persia, and Rasht were 
 occupied, the occupation of the latter involving us in 
 conjflict with the native tribes. Access was secured 
 to Enzali, a port on the Caspian near Rasht, and 
 a small expedition was sent in August to help in 
 the defence of Baku, the important centre for oil 
 on the west coast of the Caspian. The local levies 
 proved to be quite unreliable, so that the brunt of 
 the fighting fell upon our troops, and in September 
 they were withdrawn to Enzali. The expedition, 
 however, had the result of inducing the ex-Russian 
 fleet on the Caspian to side with the Allies, and so 
 checked German or Turkish hopes of an advance to 
 the east. 
 
 After the armistice with Turkey a British force 
 was stationed between the Caspian and the Black 
 Sea in order to keep open the Batum — Tiflis — Baku 
 railway, and to maintain communications across the 
 Caspian with the British force, mentioned above, at, 
 and near, Krasnovodsk. 
 
 Lieut. H. A. King (Camel Corps, Educ.) died in east 
 Persia on 4th November, 1918, of enteric.

 Salonica. 
 
 Before describing the British share in the Allied 
 expedition to Salonica it should be mentioned that the

 Austrians followed up their declaration of war on 
 Serbia by bombarding Belgrade, the capital, and on 
 13th August crossed the Danube at Shabatz, 40 miles 
 to the west. Within a few days they were driven 
 out, and a more threatening attack in November and 
 December, which reached Valjevo, 30 miles to the 
 south of the Danube, and led to the fall of Belgrade 
 on 2nd December, was also completely repulsed. 
 
 After the first Balkan war, waged by the Bulgarians 
 with the help of Serbians and Greeks against the 
 Turks in 1913, the Bulgarians fell out with their aUies, 
 and, in the war which followed, lost most of their gains. 
 It was feared that they might take advantage of the 
 general European war to avenge themselves upon the 
 Serbians, and the latter were urged to secure their 
 neutraUty or even alliance, by conceding the territory 
 in dispute. Naturally the Serbians were unwilHng to 
 do this, and Germany and Austria by counter proposals, 
 including a substantial loan, obtained the promise of 
 assistance from the Bulgarians. During September, 
 1915, when the crops had been harvested, their army 
 was mobihsed, ostensibly to maintain an armed 
 neutrality. Early in October an Austro-German 
 expedition under Von Mackensen invaded Serbia 
 from the north and the Bulgarians, at length throwing 
 aside all pretence, attacked the Serbians from the 
 east. The Serbian army, already reduced by a year's 
 fighting to about 100,000, was thus set upon by forces 
 four or five times as numerous, and, in spite of an 
 heroic resistance, was rapidly driven back. By the 
 end of November, having lost practically all its guns, 
 ammunition and stores, it had ceased to exist as an 
 organised unit. 
 
 The Greeks were parties to a treaty which required 
 them to assist the Serbians but, under the guidance of 
 King Constantine, whose wife was a sister of the 
 Kaiser, had no great scruples in ignoring their re- 
 sponsibilities. France and Great Britain, however.
 
 176 
 were ready to assist, and Salonica, a Greek port of 
 some 140,000 inhabitants, was offered and accepted 
 as a base. A French force, which included the British 
 loth Division from GalHpoli, was landed in October, 
 19 15, and endeavoured to join hands with the retreat- 
 ing Serbians by advancing up the valley of the Vardar 
 along the railway from Salonica to Uskub and Nish. 
 After severe fighting by the French, an attempt to 
 
 Cetrinje 
 
 L. SCi/T/tKi;

 reach Veles failed and the force returned, through 
 dreadful hardships,- to Salonica. The British, who 
 were stationed between Lake Doiran and Dedeli to 
 the north-west to cover the retreat, were heavily 
 attacked early in December during a fog and some- 
 what roughly handled. They were able, however, to 
 complete their task, and to retire into Greek territory. 
 The Bulgarians did not cross the frontier and the 
 Allies, being unmolested, spent the winter of 1915/16 
 in constructing very strong defensive works from 
 Lakes Beshik and Langaza to the Vardar. 
 There was much else to be done. " When you step
 
 17? 
 out of Salonica you step into a virtual desert, road- 
 less, treeless, uncultivated, populated only by scattered 
 villages . . . inhabited by a low-grade peasantry." ^ 
 Only two roads, both quite inadequate for heavy 
 traffic, and three lines of single railway led from the 
 town towards the enemy. " Winter, right up to the 
 beginning of April, is a season of snow, rain, and, above 
 all, mud. Tracks dissolve into quagmires, main roads 
 break up into holes and ridges, impassable for motor 
 traffic." Roads and bridges were therefore made, wells 
 sunk, suppHes stored, hospitals and buildings of all 
 sorts erected, and to enable it to cope with the extra 
 traffic the harbour was deepened and improved. 
 Although the Allies had been officially invited to 
 Salonica, an influential party among the Greeks 
 opposed their work in every way. Worse followed, 
 for on 26th May, 19 16, Rupel, commanding the valley 
 of the Struma, was seized by the Bulgarians, the Greeks 
 apparently conniving. In reply the French commander- 
 in-chiel placed Salonica under martial law, and on 
 30th August the town definitely sided with the Allies. 
 A strangely composite force, comprising French, 
 British, Russians, Itahans, Serbians, Portuguese, 
 contingents from French and British colonies and 
 Greek volunteers, was gradually collected. To the 
 British loth Division were added the 22nd, 26th, 
 27th, 28th and 60th Divisions, but of these the loth 
 left in 1916 and the 60th in 1917 for Palestine. After 
 a quiet \\dnter and spring the line was slowly advanced 
 during the summer of 19 16, with the British in general 
 in the sector between the Struma and the Vardar, 
 but the Bulgarians captured Kavalla on our right 
 and were successful at Lake Ostrovo on our left. The 
 British made captures to the west of Lake Doiran on 
 the night of I7th/i8th August, and on nth September 
 successfully attacked the Macukovo salient on the left 
 bank of the Vardar, and crossed the Struma at and

 near Orliak. These affairs were a prelude to an ad- 
 vance on the left by the French, who stormed Fiorina 
 on i8th September and Monastir on 19th November. 
 On 30th September and succeeding days British troops 
 captured Zir, and other positions towards Seres, and 
 on 31st October captured Barakli Jumaa. 
 
 The campaign of 19 17 was marked by a determined 
 British attack on the enemy's position in front of the 
 Petit Couronne to the west of Lake Doiran. Front 
 line trenches were captured in a night attack on 
 24th/25th April, but most of them were commanded 
 by the enemy's reserve trenches and had to be 
 evacuated, and an attack on the night of 8th /9th 
 May had a similar result. The total British casualties 
 were about 10,000. During the summer, in order to 
 escape the malaria and other diseases which infested 
 the low-lying ground, both sides retired to the hills 
 which hne the valley of the Struma, forward positions 
 being held only by outposts. 
 
 Lieut. T. W. Greenstreet (R. Irish Fus,, Educ.) was 
 awarded the M.C. for his gallantry, on the night of 
 20th/2ist April, to the east of Lake Doiran. While he 
 was guiding an attacking party over difficult country 
 an alarm was given and, the party being much broken 
 up, he was left alone near the enemy's position. " He 
 then, single-handed, kept the enemy at bay, and it 
 was due to his great gallantry that very severe casual- 
 ties to the retiring party were prevented. Having 
 exhausted his ammunition, he clubbed a rifle and con- 
 tinued to fight until, wounded and overcome, he was 
 captured." 
 
 Co.-Sergt.-Maj. A. E. Dawes (2/2oth Lond., Educ.) 
 received the D.C.M. for his gallantry during a raid 
 on 23rd April, when, " although wounded, he organised • 
 a bombing party, and succeeded in knocking a machine- 
 gun out. Afterwards, though wounded three times, 
 he carried out his duties with the utmost coolness 
 and gallantry."

 Lance-Corp W. G. Gosford (R.A.S.C., Educ.) died 
 of malaria on 3rd September, igi6. Lieut. H. F. 
 Bartram (7th Wilts, Comp.) was killed during the 
 attack on 24th April, 1917, and Lieut. W. L Partridge 
 (loth Devons, Comp.) and Daniel Conley (2/20th 
 Lond., Ch. Engr.) on the 25th. Lance-Corp. J. D. 
 Allen (2/i6th Lond., Educ.) died on loth May of 
 wounds received two days earlier. W. F. Fish 
 (R.A.M.C., Asylums) who was gassed in March, died 
 on 24th May of paraplegia, E. H. Doherty (Durh. L.L, 
 Tram.) died of malaria on 25th August and Staff- 
 Sergt. -Farrier G. M. Dobson (R.A.S.C, Ch. Engr.) 
 of the same disease on i6th October. 
 
 The front was quiet during the spring and summer 
 of 1918, but on 15th September the French and 
 Serbians broke through on a front of seven miles, 
 and rapidly extending their success, within a few 
 days advanced some twenty miles. The British and 
 Greeks prevented the transfer of reinforcements 
 by attacking near Lake Doiran, and on the 27th 
 captured Strumnitza. Prilep fell to the French and 
 Serbians on the 23rd, Ishtip on the 25th, and Uskub on 
 the 29th. The Bulgarians, with their communications 
 cut, were thus threatened with annihilation and apphed 
 for an armistice. This was signed at Salonica, Bulgaria 
 evacuating Greece and Serbia, demobilising her army, 
 surrendering all arms and munitions, making over to 
 the Alhes all means of transport and receiving Allied 
 garrisons into various parts of her territory. Even after 
 the surrender of Bulgaria a few German and Austrian 
 troops attempted to oppose the Alhes, but this re- 
 sistance was brushed aside, and the Serbians entered 
 Nish on 12th October, and Belgrade on ist November. 
 In four weeks from the opening of the offensive 90,000 
 prisoners and 2,000 guns were captured.^ 
 
 * General Ludendorff seems to have regarded this defeat as more 
 disastrous for the cause of Germany and her allies than any of the 
 others experienced about this time (My War Memories, 191 4-1 8, 
 vol. ii. p. 715).

 Lieut, W. R. Reeve (E. Surr., Educ.) received the 
 M.C. for his gallantry on the night of 26th/27th 
 September during two successful patrols when the 
 company under his command had to locate and 
 occupy a strong enemy position. Capt. and Qr.- 
 Master E. A. Beattie (R.A.M.C, Educ.) received 
 the M.B.E. in recognition of his gallantry in saving 
 a man's life at Kavalla on 17th December, igi8. 
 
 Co.-Sergt. Maj. F. Challen (9th Bord., Educ.) was 
 awarded the D.C.M. "He took charge of officers' 
 parties, and it was mainly due to his courage, energy 
 and determination that long lengths of wire entangle- 
 ments were erected in a very short space of time." 
 
 Richard Lloyd (R.A.S.C, Stores) died of nephritis 
 on i6th January, 1918, Corp. C. J. Bateman (R.A.M.C, 
 Asylums) of haemorrhage on i6th March, Percy Ber- 
 ridge (R.F.A., Stores) of pneumonia on 14th April, 
 Lance-Corp. D. C. Belcher (R.A.M.C, Pub. H.) of 
 dysentery on 5th July, Lance-Corp. T. S. Tonkin, B.Sc. 
 (R.A.M.C., Solr.), of malaria on 17th October, E. 
 Chauvin (R.G.A., Educ.) of malaria and pneumonia 
 on 17th November, S. Swindells (R.N.A.S., Tram.) 
 on the i8th of pneumonia, T. H. G. Willcock (R.A.M.C, 
 Parks) on the 28th of pneumonia on his way home, 
 and A. D. Cripps (R.G.A., Pub. H.) on 17th December, 
 also of pneumonia. In January, 1919, Lance-Corp. 
 G. G. Smith (R.A.M.C, Educ.) died on the 9th and 
 Staff-Sergt. W. Dobson (R.A.O.C, Parks) on the i6th, 
 both of pneumonia. 
 
 CHAPTER XHL 
 
 British Troops in Italy. 
 
 Italy had two main reasons for declaring war upon 
 Austria. First, she was alarmed by the latter's designs 
 upon Serbia and the cast coast of the Adriatic; the 
 success of these would naturally gravely impair Italian 
 influence in the Mediterranean. Secondly, she was
 
 i8i 
 anxious to recover Italian lands, held by the Austrians, 
 such as the Trentino in South Tirol, and Trieste and 
 Istria north-east of the Adriatic. In the spring of 
 19 15, Austria made certain vague offers which were 
 regarded as quite insufficient, and on 23rd May, 1915, 
 after further indecisive parlcyings, Italy declared war. 
 The Trentino projects into Italy in a great sahent, 
 so that the danger of the Austrians secretly collecting 
 troops for a sudden attack had to be guarded against. 
 Fortunately the frontier around this salient and to the 
 east Ues along the crests of the Alps, which are crossed 
 by only a few passes. The Italians were satisfied with 
 containing, by frequent local attacks, a number of 
 the enemy in this part, while they made their chief 
 attacks through open country on the east towards the 
 Isonzo. During 1915 no fewer than five great assaults 
 were launched in this direction. In June, 1916, an 
 Austrian counter-offensive from the Trentino, which 
 at first seemed very threatening, was driven back, and 
 in August the attacks upon the Isonzo were resumed, 
 with the result that Gorizia was taken, and the line 
 carried forward across the Carso plateau south of the 
 town. A further advance there and across the Bain- 
 sizza plateau north of the town in May, 1917, was 
 checked by the Austrians, but the attack, in which 
 a few British heavy batteries assisted, was resumed 
 later with some success. 
 
 Towards the end of October, 19 17, the Austrians, 
 aided by Germans, attacked the Italian 2nd Army 
 near Caporetto to the north of Gorizia. The defence, 
 war-weary and much discouraged by troubles amongst 
 the civil population, offered little resistance,^ and on 
 the 26th, in order to ensure the safety of the rest of 
 the line, a general retreat was ordered. This con- 
 tinued until I2th November when the river Piave 
 
 » There were some brilliant exceptions. At least one group of 
 Alpini near Gorizia were reported by airmen to be still holding 
 out as late as 4th November, although they were then 100 miles or 
 more behind the line.

 was reached. The ItaUans lost 200,000 men and 2,000 
 guns, and their gains in the Trentino and near the 
 Isonzo, as well as a district, at least 100 miles deep 
 and of the same breadth, out of their own territory. 
 In their extremity they turned to the Allies for assist- 
 ance, and five British divisions, the 5th, 7th, 23rd, 
 41st and 48th, under Sir Henry Plumer,^ in addition 
 to French divisions under French generals were sent. 
 The Hue of the Piave was fiercely attacked during

 November but remained firm, and the enemy, content 
 with their gains, at length broke off the engagement. 
 About this time General Diaz succeeded General 
 Cadorna as Itahan commander-in-chief. 
 
 The spring of 1918 was quiet, but on 15th June 
 the Austrians resumed the offensive with an attack 
 upon the British 23rd and 48th Divisions on the 
 Asiago plateau, immediately west of the river Brenta. 
 The attack did not succeed, for the positions lost by us 
 were promptly regained by counter-attacks. Attacks

 and was succeeded by the Earl of Cavan; somewhat later the 
 5th and 41st Divisions returned to France.

 upon the Italian lines along the Piave were at first 
 more promising, for crossings were forced at several 
 points. Reinforcements, however, were brought up, 
 and these, aided by a sudden rise of the river which 
 seriously hampered the Austrian lines of transport, 
 retook the lost positions. 
 
 During the autumn, signs of a loss of moral among 
 the Austrians began to be noted, and General Diaz, 
 although his forces were fewer in number, decided to 
 attempt a break through. He first ordered an attack 
 up the valley of the Brenta and, when the enemy's 
 reserves were thoroughly engaged in that sector, 
 directed a general attack to the east. As part of this 
 the Earl of Cavan, now commanding the loth ItaUan 
 Army which included the 7th and 23rd British Divi- 
 sions, was ordered to cross the Piave. The river, on 
 the front of attack, was over a mile wide, but it was 
 broken up by numerous islands, the chief of which, 
 the Grave di Papadopoh, was three miles long by one 
 broad. 
 
 On the night of 23rd/24th October, the 2nd H.A.C. 
 and the ist R. Welch Fus., crossing in small boats, 
 surprised the garrison and captured part of the island ; 
 next night the conquest was completed by the 7th and 
 an Itahan division. On the 27th, the 7th and 23rd 
 Divisions, under cover of a heavy bombardment, 
 attacked the enemy on the farther bank of the river. 
 Bridges to connect our hues with Papadopoli had been 
 constructed, but, beyond the island, the troops had 
 to use fords. These were often five feet deep, and, as 
 the river was in flood and the currents strong, many 
 men were swept away and drowned. After a stout 
 resistance, the passage was forced, the bridges were 
 carried forward across the river, and the advance was 
 continued. On the British left the. 8th ItaHan Army 
 was held up, and, for a time, that flank was in some 
 danger. However, the river, still higher up, was 
 crossed by other ItaHan troops, and eventually the
 
 i84 
 district between us and them was cleared, and on the 
 28th the 8th Italian Army was able to complete its 
 crossing. On the 29th it reached Vittorio, a very 
 important point in the Austrian hues of communica- 
 tion, while the loth Army reached the Monticano. 
 A great wedge had thus been driven into the Austrian 
 front, completely dividing the troops in the plains 
 from those in the hill country to the north. The 
 retreat rapidly degenerated into a rout, the enemy 
 abandoning all stores, and surrendering in great num- 
 bers, often by whole units at a time. By 4th November 
 Cavan had crossed the TagHamento, the 6th Army, 
 which included the British 48th Division, was on the 
 outskirts of Trent, and Trieste had been occupied 
 from the sea. 
 
 The Austrians had now lost at least 300,000 prisoners 
 and 5,000 guns,i most of the nations which formed 
 their straggling empire were in a state of revolution, 
 and further resistance was hopeless. Under an armis- 
 tice, concluded on 4th November, they demobihsed 
 their army, surrendered half their artillery, the bulk 
 of their navy, and all prisoners of war, and, leaving 
 in position all military and railway equipment, evacu- 
 ated all invaded territory, as well as strips of what, 
 till then, had formed part of their own country. 
 
 Sergt. G. Burnett (H.A.C., Educ.) was awarded the 
 M.M. for bravery in action at PapadopoH, and Sergt. 
 A. P. Paveley (R.F.A., Asylums) for bravery in action 
 at Cesuna. 
 
 During 1917 Harry Carben (R.A.M.C, Tram.) died 
 at Taranto of dysentery on 20th July, and during 
 1918 Charles Gristwood (R.F.A., Tram.) died of rupture 
 on 24th January, Capt. R. P. Buxton (4th Oxf. and 
 Bucks L.I., Educ.) was killed in action on the Asiago 
 plateau on 15th June, and V. E. T. Sahnon (2nd 
 H.A.C., Educ.) died on 3rd November of influenza. 
 
 ^The British 7th and 23rd Divisions alone captured 28,000 
 prisoners and 219 guns, and the 48th Division at least 20,000 
 prisoners and 500 guns.

 CHAPTER XIV 
 British Tkoops in Russia. 
 During the war Murmansk in North Russia was 
 greatly developed, with the help of the Allies, as a 
 port for supplying 
 the Russians with 
 munitions, and, at 
 the same time, it 
 was connected with 
 Petrograd by a rail- 
 way some 600 miles 
 long. In order to 
 prevent the Ger- 
 mans from estabhsh- 
 ing submarine bases 
 there and at Arch- 
 angel, Allied detach- 
 ments were landed 
 in August, 1918. 
 That at Murmansk, 
 assisted by local 
 levies, defeated White 
 Finn and German de- 
 tachments in several 
 engagements, and 
 drove them from 
 North Karelia. The force at Archangel was also success- 
 ful and advanced 200 miles up the Dwina and about 100 
 miles up the Vologda railway. On i8th October, our 
 advanced troops on the Dwina were driven back, but 
 other attacks then and early in December were beaten 
 off with heavy loss to the enemy. In April, 1919, the 
 Bolsheviks initiated further attacks near Archangel, 
 and our force at Murmansk which had been unmolested 
 for several months was also attacked. Neither attempt 
 succeeded, but in July, some of the local levies having 
 mutinied, the situation became so threatening that

 Sir Henry (afterwards Lord) Rawlinson ^A^as sent out 
 mth reinforcements. By their help the objects of the 
 expedition were finally achieved and, as the Allied 
 Council was opposed to further operations, Archangel 
 was voluntarily evacuated at the end of September 
 and Murmansk early in October. 
 
 Major A. G. Church (R.G.A., Educ), M.C., was 
 awarded the D.S.O. and the order of St. Vladimir 
 (with crossed swords and bow) " for conspicuous 
 gallantry and zeal during the operations from . . . 
 June 8th to July 26th, 1919. When the Russian 
 infantry were driven back ... he pushed his guns 
 up to the front line and restored the situation by his 
 accurate shooting. ... On June 22nd under heavy 
 shelling he kept his guns in action, silencing the 
 enemy and causing them to move their guns." 
 
 Siberia. 
 Serving with the Russian army was a Czecho-Slovak 
 Corps composed for the most part of troops who had 
 deserted to the Russians. After peace was signed 
 between Russia and Germany this corps determined 
 to continue fighting for the Allies. Accordingly they 
 proposed to make their way across Siberia to Vladi- 
 vostok so that they might take ship thence for Europe. 
 Several thousand reached that port by May, 1918, but 
 the middle and rear of the force were drawn into 
 conflict with local Bolsheviks along the trans-Siberian 
 railway. By the end of October they were much 
 exhausted, but the enemy attacks then slackened 
 and they were able to withdraw. Their withdrawal 
 along the railway was aided and covered by a labour 
 battalion of the Middlesex Regiment under Lt.-Col. 
 John Ward, M.P.

 CHAPTER XV. 
 British Troops in Africa. 
 German East Africa. 
 German East Africa, immediately to the south of 
 the Equator, has a coast line of about 450 miles to 
 the Indian Ocean, extends inland for some 700 miles 
 in the north and 400 miles in the south, and in area is 
 about six times the size of England and Wales, with a 
 population estimated at 8,000,000. The chief ports 
 are Tanga (pop. 6,000) in the north and Dar-es- 
 Salaam (pop. 24,000) in the centre, these being the 
 termini of railways running north-westward to the 
 KiUmanjaro district and westwards to Kigoma, which 
 adjoins Ujiji, on Lake Tanganyika. Tabora (pop. 
 37,000), 250 miles east of Tanganyika, is the chief town 
 in the interior. A belt, twenty or thirty miles wide, 
 along the coast is fiat and low-lying, but the interior 
 gradually rises to a series of barren plateaux at a 
 height of 4,000 or 5,000 feet. There are no roads, but 
 only unmetalled tracks through the bush, dusty in the 
 dry, and almost impassable in the wet seasons. Under 
 the conditions of active service, malaria and dysentery 
 are frequent, and the prevalence of the tsetse fly 
 throughout much of the country makes horses or 
 oxen almost useless for transport. 
 
 The enemy's force originally consisted of about 
 5,000 native troops and police, with a reserve of 
 3,000, all officered by Germans and under the command 
 of General Von Lettow-Vorbeck. There were also some 
 1,500 European settlers. By energetic recruiting the 
 total strength was eventually raised during the war 
 to over 30,000 with 2,300 Europeans, the arms and 
 ammunition for these increased numbers being chiefly 
 supplied by the Konigsberg (see p. 132) and other 
 vessels which ran the weak blockade. Precise details 
 as to our troops are lacking; they seem to have been 
 
 N
 
 1 88 
 
 fewer than the enemy at first, but at the height of the 
 campaign were more numerous and better equipped. 
 They were, however, a heterogeneous assortment, con- 
 sisting of British and South African troops and settlers, 
 
 GERMAN EAST AFRICA. 
 
 native troops from many different parts of India and 
 native troops from East Africa, Uganda, the Gold 
 Coast, Nigeria and even the West Indies. The lan- 
 guages spoken included EngHsh, Dutch, Hindustani, 
 Swahili and several West Coast and East Coast 
 dialects. Some had uniforms almost the same as
 
 1 89 
 those worn by the enemy, and, to enable them to be 
 recognised, they were provided with the famihar blue 
 and white bands worn by the Metropolitan Police or 
 with red armlets bearing the letters G.R. 
 
 At the outbreak of war the Germans, being the 
 stronger, took the initiative, seized Taveta in British 
 East Africa and, until the end of 1915, frequently 
 raided the railway connecting Mombasa, the principal 
 port of the colony, with Nairobi, the capital. An 
 enemy attack on Mombasa early in October, 1914, 
 was repulsed, and our attempts on Tanga early in 
 November failed with nearly 1,000 casualties. The 
 whole of the campaigning season of 1915 was taken 
 up with raids and counter raids across the various 
 frontiers. 
 
 After several changes, Lt.-Gen. J. C. Smuts from 
 South Africa, succeeding Sir Horace Smith-Dorrien 
 who, owing to ill-health, had resigned on his way out 
 from England, was appointed commander in February, 
 1916, and started a vigorous offensive. In March the 
 German position at Taveta was outflanked and seized, 
 the Latema — Reata ridge was forced and Kahe was 
 captured. Kondoa Irangi was seized by General Van 
 Deventer on 19th April. While a large body of the 
 enemy was engaged in checking our further progress 
 to the south of the latter place. Smuts turned south- 
 east from Kahe, cleared the Usambara district and 
 occupied Tanga and Pangani. Belgian and British 
 troops by July drove the enemy from the district 
 between Lakes Victoria and Tanganyika, and at the 
 same time Van Deventer reached the central railway 
 at Dodoma. The Germans, who had retreated to a 
 strong position in the Nguru Mountains, were out- 
 flanked and driven south in August, on 3rd September 
 Dar-es-Salaam fell and by the end of the month the 
 coast as far south as the Portuguese frontier had been 
 occupied. During the autumn the Germans under 
 General Wahle were driven out of Tabora and nearly
 
 1 90 
 
 surrounded, but, with the loss of more than half their 
 numbers, managed to break through and join the main 
 body on the Mahenge plateau. 
 
 Our losses from sickness were very heavy. In one 
 week in vSeptember there were 9,000 in hospital, of 
 whom 4,000 were whites, and between October and 
 December from 12,000 to 15,000 patients, mostly 
 malaria cases, were evacuated from the hospitals 
 along the central railway alone. The wastage among 
 animals for two months from the middle of September 
 was, horses 10,000, mules 10,000, oxen 11,000, donkeys 
 2,500. 
 
 In January, 1917, when Lettow-Vorbeck had been 
 hemmed in in the south-eastern part of the colony, 
 Smuts was recalled to take part in the Imperial Con- 
 ference, and about this time all white infantry and 
 mounted troops were withdrawn. He was succeeded by 
 General Hoskins who, in May, was succeeded by 
 General Van Deventer. At the end of the latter 
 month a sortie to the north-west was met and driven 
 back by the Belgians who, during the summer, con- 
 tinued their advance and in October drove a German 
 force from Mahenge. Van Deventer, working from 
 Lindi on the coast, defeated the Germans in several 
 engagements in November, captured some 5,000 
 prisoners, and forced Lettow-Vorbeck with the rem- 
 nants of his troops across the Ro\aima into Portu- 
 guese territory. In 1918 the British, with assistance 
 from the Portuguese, carried out active operations in 
 Portuguese territory against the Germans, who some- 
 times made daring raids but more often fled further 
 and further afield. One detachment under General 
 Wahle returned northward into German East Africa 
 and was captured. The main body eventually got 
 into Northern Rhodesia and was there at the con- 
 clusion of hostilities when, in accordance with the 
 Armistice, Lettow-Vorbeck was ordered by his Govern- 
 ment to surrender.

 G. A. Hogg (R.N., Tram.), gunlayer on board H.M.S. 
 Severn, received the D.S.M. for his devotion to duty 
 during the destruction of the Konigsberg in July, 19 15. 
 A. W. Henderson (R.N., L.F.B.) was killed by an 
 explosion on H.M.S. Mersey which was taking part in 
 the attack.

 line to the Bight of Biafra of 200 miles, extends inland 
 for an average distance of about 400 miles and has an 
 area of nearly 200,000 square miles, with a population 
 of about 3 1 miUions of whom only a few thousand are 
 Europeans. Along the coast is a belt, 150 miles wide, 
 of almost impenetrable forest, fringed by mangrove 
 swamps; the interior is higher and more open. Inces- 
 sant tropical rains, the absence of roads, and the dense 
 undergrowth made active service very trying, and 
 caused much of the fighting to be along the railways. 
 Of these there were two, both running from Duala, 
 the capital, one towards the east and the other towards
 
 192 
 
 the north. British Nigeria Hes to the north-west, 
 French Congo to the east and the latter and Spanish 
 Guinea to the south. 
 
 Duala was occupied on 27th September, 19 14, and 
 by the end of the year the districts along the northern 
 railway and towards Edea, which was attacked along 
 the partly navigable rivers Sanaga and Njong, were 
 subdued by the British and French respectively. 
 Early in 19 15 an attack on Yaunde, to which the 
 Germans had transferred their administration, failed, 
 and a counter-attack upon our lines of communication 
 forced us back. Heavy rains put an end to further 
 fighting until August when a second attack on Yaunde 
 was organised. Allied troops captured Sende on 25th 
 and Eseka on 30th October. French troops at Bertua 
 and "Dume and Belgian troops from the south-east 
 co-operated, and on ist January, 19 16, Yaunde fell. 
 Many of the enemy made their way to Spanish ter- 
 ritory, isolated districts in the north were cleared, 
 and by the middle of February all fighting had ended. 
 
 CHAPTER XVI. 
 
 Deaths from Disease. 
 In previous wars those dying from disease have usually 
 outnumbered those killed in action. Thus, as recently 
 as the Crimean War, the proportion was four or five 
 to one, in the American Civil War and in the South 
 African War it was about two to one. On the Prussian 
 side in the Franco-German War in 1870 and on the 
 Japanese side in the Russo-Japanese War, 1904-5, the 
 latter proportion was reversed, but this was secured 
 only as the result of much careful attention to the 
 cleanhness and habits of each soldier. It was not 
 until the Great War that, on most of the fronts, deaths 
 from disease became negligible in comparison with 
 those of men killed in action. This was partly due to 
 the greater destructiveness of modern weapons, but
 
 193 
 still more to the increased skill of medical men in 
 preventing disease. This particularly applies to the 
 troops in western Europe. Those elsewhere were not 
 so fortunate, and suffered from malaria in Salonica, 
 Palestine and Mesopotamia, dysentery in Gallipoli, 
 and various tropical diseases in Africa. Some deaths 
 directly due to the conditions of active service abroad 
 have been dealt with already under the different cam- 
 paigns. Others occurred as follows: — 
 
 In IQ14, Cj. V. Cross (4th Oxf. and Bucks L.I., 
 Educ.) died at Oxford on 9th November of blood 
 poisoning and meningitis, C. Smith (Nat. Res., 
 Asylums) at Croydon on the 2gth of ptomaine poison- 
 ing, J. A. Lund (R.F.A., Arch.) at Fulham on 12th

 in the different battles and campaigns. The following 
 figures, too vast for the mind to realise in any detail, 
 may help the reader to form some vague impression 
 of the immensity of the conflict. The numbers of 
 those who served from the British Empire alone were 
 as follows: ^

 The combined death-roll was therefore over 
 8,000,000, or several hundred thousand beyond the 
 present entire population of Greater London. 2 The 
 
 ' Exact figures are impossible as different numbers have been 
 pubUshed at different times. The table is based on estimates 
 prepared by the United States Army {Times, 4th March, 1919) as 
 amended by other authoritative figures {Times, 30th Nov., 23rd and 
 28th December, 1918; 9th April, 6th May, 2nd Sept. and 6th Nov., 
 1919; 26th March, 20th April and i8th June, 1920). The figures in 
 italics are round numbers calculated by allowing two wounded for 
 each man killed or missing. This is a conservative estimate as the 
 usual proportion is 2^ or even 3 to i. The conditions in Serbia and 
 Roumania were exceptional and a still lower estimate of the propor- 
 tion of wounded to killed has been adopted. 
 
 ' This in 1921 was 7,476,168.
 
 200 
 
 total casualties approached 27,000,000, and quite 
 probably may have been nearly 30,000,000, or about 
 two-thirds of the population of the United Kingdom. 
 
 Only those campaigns in which the British were 
 concerned and those incidents in which they shared 
 have been described. Most of the main features have 
 thus been dealt with, for, except on the eastern front 
 in Europe, they had a part, and often an important 
 part, in all the fighting. It is natural and right that 
 our interest should centre in them, but the events of 
 the war and the final victory must be regarded as a 
 whole, not singly, nor even in relation to one country. 
 The British Empire did not win the war, nor did 
 France, nor Italy, nor the United States, although, if 
 any of these had been absent, the result might have 
 been far different; nor was any country alone in her 
 endurance and in her sacrifices. So, when the final 
 reckoning comes to be made, let it be remembered that 
 Russia's losses were the heaviest, and that, but for her 
 efforts, prolonged over two years in the face of every 
 difficulty, the position of the Allies on the other fronts 
 would have been most dangerous, if not impossible. 
 For more than four years Belgium, a narrow strip 
 excepted, was under the sway of a foreign despotism, 
 her people were liable at any moment to heavy 
 fines, to imprisonment and to deportation, and her 
 industries were being impaired or even ruined. The 
 like misfortunes befell Roumania but for a shorter 
 time. The fate of Serbia was more terrible. After her 
 army had been crushed by overwhelming numbers, 
 disease and starvation swept through the country 
 carrying off one-third of the population.^ The suffer- 
 ings of France are known, by sight Or by hearsay, to 
 all. It was on the western front that men and guns 
 were accumulated in the greatest profusion, and it 
 was there that the struggle was fiercest and most 
 obstinate. For a year or more she bore the brunt of 
 
 * M. Savoitch, a former Serbian minister, in Times, 28th Dec, 1918.
 
 201 
 
 the attack along a front of several hundred miles; 
 throughout the war the fighting on the greater part 
 fell to her lot. Her casualties, most of them incurred 
 in this noble task, amounted to 4,470,526.^ In the 
 early days the enemy approached to within twenty 
 miles of the capital, and, when driven back, lay 
 encamped during nearly four years little more than 
 twice that distance away. In the spring of 1918 he 
 again closed in upon the city, which for some months 
 was under artillery fire at long range. A belt of 
 country, 250 miles long and twenty or thirty wide, 
 was reduced to a desert, 1,659 communes or townships 
 were blotted out, 2,363 others were wrecked, and 
 630,000 houses were destroyed or seriously damaged. 2 
 So many mines were ruined that the output of coal 
 was reduced by a half, 21,000 factories were gutted, 
 and great manufacturing centres like Lille and the 
 Longwy district were systematically despoiled of the 
 machinery vital to their prosperity. Deaths among 
 civilians, by artillery in the battle zone or by aero- 
 planes in the back areas, were frequent.

 This sketch has been written so that the memory of 
 the part taken by the Council's staff in events which 
 called for much bravery, much endurance, much self- 
 sacrifice, might not pass away without record, however 
 slight. The task is now completed. On so many 
 memorials, up and down the country, of those who fell 
 in the Great War, it is truly written : " They died that 
 we might live." For that example and that sacrifice 
 no return can be adequate, but it is for each of us 
 who survive to determine that the example and the 
 sacrifice shall not have been wholly in vain. 
 
 ' The British casualties on the western front were 2,719,652 
 {Times. 28th Dec, 1918). 
 
 * This is about the number of houses in London.
