Summary
"
Under
the
shelter
of the
embankment
that
runs
alongside
the
plowed
field
you
can
see
a
battery
of those
monster
field
guns
which
by their
incessant
hammering
on the
German
lines
struck
terror
into the
heart
of the
enemy
and
opened
up
the
lanes
that
led
to
victory
and
peace
. As
you
look
at the
muzzles
poked
over
the
edge
of the
ditch
you
can
see
the
groups
of
attentive
French
soldiers
who
fed
them,
cared
for them and
loved
them
because
of the
tremendous
part
that they had in the
battle
that
raged
for
years
along
the
western
front
. These
guns
are
along
the
Oise
, a
river
in
northern
France
more
famous
because
of the
blood
of the
soldiers
that has been
spilled
along
its
banks
than
anything
else
.
Night
and
day
these
thick
throated
fellows
hurled
their
tons
of
metal
and
high
explosive
over
and into the
German
lines
. The
shells
weight
over
two
hundred
pounds
and are
filled
with
high
explosive
that
sends
a
hurricane
of
splintered
steel
over
the
ground
when
they
strike
. They are the
largest
type
of
field
gun
that the
French
army
used
and were
very
difficult
to
move
on
account
of their
weight
. In
muddy
soil
and in a
war
of
movement
they would be
practically
useless."-Taken
