"agoHE than 12 years after the
armistice, the department of
military science and tactlce at the
University of California has Just
called to mind an Important but
little known maneuver of tha war
which Its instructor, Colonel R. O.
Van Horn, had tha distinction to
direct.
The maneuver concerned the
during night march through five
miles of heavily armed and guard*
ed German lines by the 2th In*
fantry under Colonel Van Horn’*
command. Occurring but a weak
before the armistice was slgnsd,
tha Incident was overlooked. But
now military tacticians and strate-
gists are said to acknowledga that
this march and subsaquent attack
contributed largely to the break-
ing down c! the German army
norale.
Plan of Attack
As avtryons knows, tha Gar-
mans had begun to retreat by
November 1, 1911. The allies,
endeavoring to convert an orderly
retreat Into a rout, decided to
penetrate the large forests of the
Bols du Beval, Bols du Four and
the Bols Oerache In an attempt
to rapture the bridgehead guard*
Ing the exit from the woods be-
fore the enemy had s chance to
organise. This Is how the strategy,
under Colonel Van Horn's direc-
tion, worked out.
Major L. T. Janda, in command
of the third battalion of the 9th
Infantry, sent out a email advance
guard of German speaking sol-
dlera for uae In audden encounters
In the dark. Thin waa done In
the belief that American Moldlerff
could mingle with the Germans
before being detected, thua effect-
ing their capture before they had
an opportunity to give warning or

tactics at University of California.
escape. Following close on the
heels of the leading third would
come the second and first bat-
talions and a battery from the
15th field artillery.
The plan of advance decided,
the advance patrols of the third
entered the woods In the after-
noon of Nov. 3 and by night the
entire battalion of 800 men had
been swallowed up by the forest,
followed closely, of course, by the
rest of the command. The road
through the forest was narrow
and muddy and the night exceed-
ingly dark.
Caught Sleeping "
Kv nine that night the advance
guard reached a farm, the main
building, outbuilding** and hay
loft of which were filled with
sleeping Germans. The buildings
were surrounded. the enemy cap-
tured and promptly aent to the
rear In charge of a German ser-
geant.
A few mile** north a second hos-
tile battalion was encountered D
was likewise surprised, and Cm
prisoners taken. The march wa*
again continued only to he halted
another few miles ahead by a Ger-
man machine gun company. Hut
as this battalion wus caught un-
aware, too, It was a simple mutter
to ffurround and capture it.
Shortly before midnight, and as
the third huttalion plodded deeper
Into the German lines, a light wus
observed ahead of the marching
column. It proved to be from the
buildings on La Tulllerle farm,
the objective, The enemy, believ-
ing they were safely concealed,
were engaged in a pleasunt party.
Breaking Up the Party
Hastily surrounding the build-
ings, Major Janda's German
speaking aoldlers, In a manner
reminiscent of Ethan Allen’s dra-
matic capture of Ticonderoga,
called out to the unsuspecting
group that they were surrounded,
and ordered them to surrender.
Thus 40 more prisoners were
taken, bringing the total accredit-
ed to the third battalion up to
115.
The heaviest fighting of the
march was encountered near
Beaumont, where the enemy had
a superior position. The Ameri-
can losses were heavy, the third
battalion being wiped out but for
two officers.
Hut the first battalion of the
ninth pushed on, and by the IMlh
of November, they had crossed the
Meuse with the marine brigade. A
day later hostilities ceased.
