Take a trip back to the fall of 1918 to explore the controversial tactics employed by American forces as they stormed the Western Front with offensives at St. Mihiel and Meuse-Argonne.

Once they finally did, German General Max von Gallwitz showed them that victory would not come easy by repeatedly sidelining American operations. But while American General John J.
