Into
the
Fight,
April-June
1918,
is
the
fourth
installment
of
the
U.S.
Army
Campaigns
of
World
War
I
series,
covering
the
American
Expeditionary
Forces-
role
in
countering
the
German
spring
offensives
of
March-June
1918.
The
arrival
of
the
American
forces
on
the
Western
Front
in
early
1918
coincided
with
a
series
of
major
German
pushes
intended
to
break
through
the
Allied
lines.
The crisis of the German offensives provided an opening for multiple American divisions to enter the lines. They worked with British and French units to resist the German advances, took command of their own sectors of the front, and increasingly engaged in their own offensive operations.
The narrative of this volume spans the brutal fighting at Cantigny, Château-Thierry, Belleau Wood, and Vaux, where the inexperienced and untried American soldiers and marines received their first exposure to the grim realities of combat. Yet as the actions of these early campaigns show, both allies and enemies soon learned that the Americans who reached the front in the spring of 1918 were willing and able to fight with the grit and determination needed to achieve victory.
