It was splendid, that lesson. The Division played the game through to the very end. We have seen how the infantry struggled forward on No- vember 10. Keen to follow to the limit all the possibilities of the military situation, just as if the campaign was in full swing instead of at its conclusion, the Chief of Staff in BEFORE THE ARMISTICE AND AFTER 273 his field order for operations on that date named points far within the enemy lines as sites for a new divisional Headquarters and other admini...strative centers, the ob- jectives being farther distant still. On 'November 10, at 21 o'clock (9 P. M. ), was published Field Order No. 105, which, oblivious of all rumor that the armistice would be signed on the 11th, directed a new attack in the direction of Les Jumelles d'Ornes, Hill 265, and Maucourt, all de- tails of the advance being as methodically worked out and carefully prescribed as though a Leavenworth map problem was being solved. Should one wonder at the necessity for thus playing the game to the extreme of the Umit, that will betray mere ignorance of military meth- ods, mihtary necessity, and the mihtary mind.
