Near the outskirts of Bapaume France, the 3rd Marines where tasked with overtaking the defensive positions in the Somme. The Central Powers defended this area vigorously causing heavy casualties on both sides. The 27th Jaeger Division, a new division, fought the hardest against the Marines as they pushed up the bloody hills to ultimately take their objective. The fighting was close and in a few occasions caused the Marines to be forced to fall back and reorganize but in the end the Marines overcame the tremendous odds to take the enemy positions. This was the marines first engagement of the war and the tremendous efforts of training paid off in the suicidal attack. |
