That France, after all her Verdun losses and strains, should have been able to give the artillery and the men for the preparation and launching of a great attack on a fifteen-kilometre front seemed very unlikely–probably to the Germans incredible. At first spring the French troops even surpassed our own in captures of men and ground, and that must have been the bitterest news of all to the Germans to-day.³⁷³
