FREE BULLECOURT: ARRAS PDF Graham Keech | 160 pages | 01 May 1999 | Pen & Sword Books Ltd | 9780850526523 | English | Barnsley, United Kingdom Visit the Bullecourt museum- Arras Pays d'Artois Tourisme Home Remembrance At Bullecourt: Arrasimmerse yourself in Bullecourt: Arras private world of the Australian soldiers. Here, History is made tangible through the personal effects on display, turning into strong emotion when presented with all those Australian and British soldiers who perished on Artois soil. A heavy machine gun, a tank turret, ripped open gas cylinders. These are what Jean Letaille happened upon Bullecourt: Arras fine day, as he Bullecourt: Arras in his fields. It is hard to imagine the scene, so Bullecourt: Arras must it have seemed. What ensued was even more so. Today, they all find a home under the roof of his own barn, now a museum. The only source of natural light is Bullecourt: Arras sunlight that filters through holes in an enormous door, which one might describe as… riddled with bullets. It is the golden voice of Bullecourt: Arras Letaille himself that accompanies the visitor in this emotionally charged place. An accumulation of shells, horse shoes, barbed wire, rifles and everything making up the kit of a soldier of the First World War. The staging is brutal. All around, display cases filled with personal effects, all neatly arranged like toy soldiers, stand in stark contrast to the disarray Bullecourt: Arras confusion of the central pit. But perhaps this re-enacts the two battles of Bullecourt which, in the spring ofleft 17, dead from among the Australian and British ranks? The Letaille museum is an enduring allegory: it explains by showing. A surgical saw says much about the role of the medical personnel, a cigarette case evokes a brief respite, a letter embodies the hope of seeing loved ones again. In addition, the visit ends with a series of faces which could almost be members of our own family. Discoveries At Bullecourtimmerse yourself in the private world of the Australian soldiers.

The terrible losses suffered by the AIF 28, men Bullecourt: Arras seven weeks shocked Australian society and this undoubtedly contributed to the rejection of a referendum on conscription and a sharp fall in voluntary enlistment. From that moment on till end of the war Australian forces in Europe received very few reinforcements. And yet in Bullecourt: Arras course ofafter a dismally cold winter in the sodden trenches, Australia's soldiers suffered more heavy losses Bullecourt: Arras the sector of Bapaume-Bullecourt and then in the quagmire of Passchendaele in Belgium. On 19 Marchduring the German Army's withdrawal to the Hindenburg Linethe Australians entered the smouldering remains of the city of Bapaume. They continued their pursuit of the retreating German soldiers, gaining possession of Bullecourt: Arras succession of ruined villages Vaulx-Vraucourt, Morchies, and Beaumetzbefore coming up against the German rearguard which fought ferocious delaying actions at Lagnicourt, Noreuil, and Hermies. Finally, on 9 April, they reached the Hindenburg Line, a seemingly impenetrable line of defences comprising extensive barbed wire entanglements, rows of deep trenches, numerous machine gun nests positioned behind concrete shields, extensive tunnels, slit trenches and deep bunkers. A preliminary bombardment to clear a way through the barbed wire was planned but, informed of the initial British successes at Arras on 9 April, Gough decided to Bullecourt: Arras forward the attack and this left no time for shelling. Gough reasoned that tanks would be able to lead the Australian cavalry through the barbed wire to take advantage of any breach in the enemy's line. But tanks were in short supply, not very reliable, and their crews had received little training. Unsurprisingly Gough's improvised plans ended in disaster when he launched his infantry against the heavily fortified German line without proper artillery support After an initial delay on 10 April to give the tanks time to arrive, the attack opened at dawn the following day. They were supported by just eleven tanks which, as it turned out, played no significant role in the fighting, and the attackers were soon swamped by German machine Bullecourt: Arras fire and heavy shelling. Losses came quickly and were huge. Those at the forefront were severely impeded Bullecourt: Arras the barbed wire, many getting entangled and subsequently picked off by German artillery. A few Bullecourt: Arras making good use of hand grenades managed to gain a hold in the German Bullecourt: Arras line and did their best to turn the captured trenches Bullecourt: Arras their advantage. A lack of men and ammunition prevented the Australians from advancing to the second line and they soon came under the intense artillery fire of a German counter-attack. Bullecourt: Arras small pockets of soldiers who attempted an advance were immediately wiped out. The Australian retreat was prosecuted in the worst possible conditions; under heavy fire, the soldiers had to cross a no man's land littered with their fallen comrades. Those who remained in the German trenches were quickly rounded up. After eight hours of fighting, only a tiny minority of the Australian force succeeded in reaching the safety of the Allied line. In the afternoon a spontaneous truce was observed for the Bullecourt: Arras to recover their wounded comrades and remove some of the dead. By the end of the day the horrific losses became apparent: the Australian 4th Brigade had lost 2, soldiers out of 3, and 1, Australians had been taken prisoner; all the battalions had been put out of action. They briefly took part of the Australian first line at Lagnicourt but were forced to fall back, both sides suffering heavy losses. The total failure of General Nivelle on Chemin des Dames Ridge led the French Army Bullecourt: Arras call for a renewed British offensive at Arras, despite the hopeless nature of the situation. The Second Battle of Bullecourt began Bullecourt: Arras 3. The Australians broke through the partially destroyed barbed wire entanglements, passing many of their comrades killed the month before and still lying in the mud. The 5th Brigade, cut to pieces by machine gun fire, was forced to withdraw before crossing the barbed Bullecourt: Arras and this brought to a halt the following waves of infantry. A few young officers intervened to get the men moving forward again but by the end of the day no real gain had been made and the Second Battle of Bullecourt deteriorated into a tragic repetition of the first. Only the survivors of the 6th Brigade managed to take metres of the German front and press on to the second line, receiving reinforcements under cover of night. In the following Bullecourt: Arras the Australians strengthened their positions and dug a communication trench back to their Bullecourt: Arras line to collect fresh munitions and Bullecourt: Arras the wounded. Despite a German counter-attack on 6 May, the British 7th Division gained a foothold in the ruins of Bullecourt on 7 May and subsequently connected with the Australian bridgehead. In the following days the British and Australians were subjected to continuous shelling and, in some areas, the Germans attacked with flame- throwers. Sporadic fighting broke out Bullecourt: Arras the next few days but all action ceased on 15 May. The Second Battle of Bullecourt inflicted 7, more losses on the Australians with very little to show for the effort except for the capture of a minute portion of the Hindenburg Line.

Le débitage du silex, d’origine locale, était totalement orienté vers la production d’éclats préférentiels selon un schéma Levallois linéal. En confrontant les données fournies par différentes approches (analyse technologique, remontages, analyse spa- tiale, tracéologie) nous avons tenté d’identifier les produits finis répondant aux exigences des utilisateurs. Une analyse statistique portant sur la quasi-totalité des produits finis, soit 127 éclats préférentiels, a montré que les critères de sélection des pièces pro- duites à des fins d’usage de boucherie se limitaient essentiellement au choix des éclats préférentiels présentant un profil longi- tudinal strictement rectiligne. La production, bien que fortement normalisée, admettait une certaine variabilité dimensionnelle ; au sein de cette gamme, les utilisateurs ont, dans un des niveaux, sélectionné deux formats assez lâches correspondant à deux types d’utilisation distincts. On pose également le problème de l’économie du débitage et des rapports entre la production effec- tuée sur place et les produits importés. Mots-clés : amas de débitage, analyse fonctionnelle, analyse multivariée, analyse univariée, analyse spatiale, Levallois, Moustérien, nord de la France, outil, technologie lithique.

    The History of 119 Infantry Brigade in the Great War with Special Reference to the Command of Brigadier-General Frank Percy Crozier by Michael Anthony Taylor A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract 119 Brigade, 40th Division, had an unusual origin as a ‘left-over’ brigade of the Welsh Army Corps and was the only completely bantam formation outside 35th Division. This study investigates the formation’s national identity and demonstrates that it was indeed strongly ‘Welsh’ in more than name until 1918. New data on the social background of men and officers is added to that generated by earlier studies. The examination of the brigade’s actions on the Western Front challenges the widely held belief that there was an inherent problem with this and other bantam formations. The original make-up of the brigade is compared with its later forms when new and less efficient units were introduced.

    CHAPTER VI11 WHEN on March 17Th the Germans Withdrew Their Front

    CHAPTER VI11 ARRAS, AND THE GENESIS OF THE BULLECOURT PLAN WHEN on March 17th the Germans withdrew their front from the salient between Arras and the Aisne, the r81e so long projected for the Fifth Army in the spring offensive had become impossible of performance. Its intended attack, originally a main stroke in the Allies’ thrust on the Sonime, had been reduced, under Nivelle’s plan, to an important pre- cursor of the British feint at Arras. When the Germans on February 22nd made their preliminary withdrawal, the prospect of General Gough being able to strike at all began to vanish by reason of the voluntary abandonment by the enemy of the points to be attacked. By timely retirements the enemy thrice placed himself out of range of a blow about to be de1ivered.l The final withdrawal had been so timed as to render it difficult for the Fifth Army-and even the right of the Third-to follow it up and come into effective action again before the commencement of the spring offensive. Time, however, was the enemy’s sole gain, so far as this particular stroke was concerned.2 His flank, running back at a sharp angle from the Arras front, would still offer a most tempting objective for a powerful stroke. The Fifth Army, when it came up against the Hindenburg Line, would be well to the left rear of the German front at Arras, and only eight miles distant. The Third Army’s attack, if successful, would sweep across Gough’s front, and a blow delivered by him-if one were permitted by the time avail- able and the strength of his artillery-would be more By the withdrawals on February ai, March 12, and March 17; the enemy had not eluded the stroke of the I1 Corps at Pys on February 17.

    Learning Lessons? Fifth Army Tank Operations, 1916-1917 – Jake Gasson

    Learning Lessons? Fifth Army Tank Operations, 1916-1917 – Jake Gasson Introduction On 15 September 1916, a new weapon made its battlefield debut at Flers-Courcelette on the Somme – the tank. Its debut, primarily under the Fourth Army, has overshadowed later deployments of the tank on the Somme, particularly those under General Sir Hubert de la Poer Gough’s Reserve Army, or Fifth Army as it came to be known after 30 October 1916. Gough’s operations against Thiepval and beside the Ancre made small scale usage of tanks as auxiliaries to the infantry, but have largely been ignored in historiography.1 Similarly, Gough’s employment of tanks the following spring in April 1917 at Bullecourt has only been cursorily discussed for the Australian distrust in tanks created by the debacle.2 The value in examining these further is twofold. Firstly, the examination of operations on the Somme through the case studies of Thiepval and Beaumont-Hamel presents a more positive appraisal of the tank’s impact than analysis confined to Flers-Courcelette, such as J.F.C. Fuller’s suggestion that their impact was more as the ‘birthday of a new epoch’ on 15 September than concrete success.3 Secondly, Gough’s tank operations shed a new light onto the notion of the ‘learning curve’, the idea that the British Army became a more effective ‘instrument of war’ through its experience on the Somme.4 This goes beyond the well-trodden infantry and artillery tactics, and the study of campaigns in isolation. Gough’s operations from Thiepval to Bullecourt highlight the inter-relationship between theory and practice, the distinctive nature 1 David J.
