About :

Fifth episode of a series of five: the Battle of Amiens (1918) After the failure of the Spring offensives, the Germans lost the initiative. It was the Allies' turn to chain attacks, gradually reducing the enemy salients. This was the purpose of the Battle of Amiens, which sought to protect this strategic railway junction. By using artillery, aviation, tanks and infantry simultaneously, the Allies achieved impressive results. This battle therefore allows us to summarize the series on complex equipment by illustrating the concept of combined arms.

This no longer holds after Russia's exit from the conflict and with the expansion of the conflict to other countries such as Belgium or the United States. Although this creates confusion for me with the Triple Alliance, the French camp is subsequently called the Allied camp, while that of Germany is called the Central States camp. We will use this name again. 2- With the rise of light tank battalions becoming more numerous and available, this remark becomes less and less true towards the end of the conflict with maneuvers and infantry more focused on tanks. On November 11, 1918, this is not yet completely complete. -The map of the Battle of Amiens is slightly distorted, lengthening the East-West axis compared to the North-South axis, to fit the battlefield into the plan. / surlechampdebataille / surlechampfr To support the channel financially: https://www.helloasso.com/association...
