We attacked him but he did not wait for battle and fled at full speed. To clip the claws of our enterprising enemy Lufbery, Thaw, Haviland and Johnson succes...- sively brought down an aeroplane apiece in the same week. On April 16th, the Allies began their great offensive on the Aisne and in Champagne. The first day we got very satisfactory results — 33, 000 prisoners. Unfortunately, the tanks, which we were using for the first time, and moreover in small number, were not yet in fighting trim and many burnt up with their gallant crews, their gasoline containers being insufficiently protected.
